OK...I'm totally AMA today, but then when have I ever not been AMA when it came to me? (AMA - against medical advice) I thought long and hard about this whole hip situation that I have blogged many times regarding. My ortho said I 'shouldn't' run as that will speed up my hip replacement. Let's …
After the past 12 months, I decided my vacations would now be of places I have never been. I wanted to go to Yosemite to see the giant trees, but they were too booked. My friend/travel agent asked if I wanted to go to Orcas Island. Never heard of it, but why not? She said …
They say life is a rollercoaster. If you know me, you know I absolutely HATE rollercoasters. Motion sickness is horrific. I can't even watch them Today's blog is reaching the highest hill, going downhill, but instead of remaining on the tracks to take a curve, the carts are flying off the tracks and crashing at …
I love pearls. I always have. My lifelong friend's grandmother gave me a 'fake' pearl necklace on my 16th birthday. I remember it so much. Kind of a funny laugh when I think about it. Miranda's dad was driving us to church. I was sitting behind Doug and his mom, Miranda's grandmother, was sitting next …
It has been raining a monsoon lately. Many flash flood downpours. I didn't plan on running today, but when I checked the weather and saw I had enough time to jump outside before more rain, out the door I went. I didn't prepare for running. I wasn't hydrated enough. Typical Midwest weather. It was cloudy …
I woke up crying and still crying...and it's not even noon yet. I decided to jump out for a run before 9 am. Sun was shining and my heart craved that Vitamin D. When I run, I listen to a live country station out of Nashville. Of course, I know it's Father's Day. DJ was …
Tough morning. I was really missing the ones I love. I worked in my garage to fill the void. That was short-lived. I have it just about completely organized. I received an email that paperwork to put my dad's house on the market was ready, but am I? I'm selling it simply "as is". I …
I completed this week running three times. SHOCKING. I have not done this in so long. Today was hot and humid, my favorite weather. I love the sweating out toxins. My favorite former manager reads my blogs. I know she read my last one about what my dad said about smiling. She posted on my …
To say I get 4-5 hours sleep a night is an understatement. My job is global. I am on a project that is trying to kill me. My Type A personality doesn't allow me to sleep much. I cannot turn off my brain and constantly think of what I have to do. I was talking …
A blog two days in a row. I'm starting over in so many ways, but today is about starting over running again. I got an injection in my right hip over three weeks ago. Actually this was my second injection. I haven't run since before my first injection in early October. My doctor stated I …
