I have not been sleeping well for about a week now, and it’s starting to show up in what I have to give to the day. This morning’s run was much harder than it should have been, and it took me hours to recover. I had planned to put up the outside Christmas lights, but…

Today was an average day. Nothing much special happened. Work was kind of slow, then I made dinner (spaghetti and meatballs), then went to dance, and then home to make more octopuses. And now I think it’s time for bed.

Working on some attitude adjustments today. Seems to be helping a little. I’ve been listening to Coach Bennett’s Podcast and I can’t get enough of it. I’ve lost so much hope in my running, and his podcast is helping me turn my mindset around. I find it inspiring for my day to day life, too.…

Today was a day of tedious, mind-numbing activities like sending 43 emails with QA results to our team, completing 10 trainings (bringing my total to 20 and leaving 12 to go), and tying up a lot of loose ends at work. I did, however, have a great run this morning – a 20-minute easy run…

Here I am in Sunrise, where I was greeted by a double rainbow in the parking lot of my hotel. There was a woman with a dog in her lap at the restaurant, and my new car averaged just over 41 miles per gallon on the way here. I couldn’t pick up my prescription before…

Something small and big seems to be changing. I feel like I’m losing touch. Things feel disconnected. I am directionless. It’s an unsettling feeling, and I feel like I am coping in strange ways, cracking jokes that aren’t quite funny, making art that isn’t quite beautiful. I know this is all very vague, but that’s…

Repairs on my car are $3,500. Also I have a road trip planned in a week. For some reason, my brain is not processing this, and I don’t know what to do next. So we went to Chili’s.

I had half a summer flex day to use at work today before losing it, so I packed up my paddleboard with the intention of going after my morning run. I left the gym and turned toward the creek to find THIS in front of me. Looking the other way was sunshine. I decided not…

I made the most amazing alfredo sauce tonight. It is like 496 points on Weight Watchers and worth every ounce I gain as a result. I am sitting in the parking lot at dance and all I can think about is going home and having more of it. Sometimes I amaze even myself.

Christina had dance pictures at Jax Beach today, so I woke up early to get her there. There was a surf competition going on at the same time, which was kind of cool. By the time we got home, the skies were black and rain was pouring down. It was otherwise a pretty dull day,…

I was so disappointed when we got to the beach and it was sunny and thundering and looked like this a few miles down the beach. We stayed long enough to see a crab, take a couple pictures, and come back home. I spent the rest of the day finishing the earrings I made for…

My days seem to separate into three basic parts: mornings, when I go to the gym (chest workout today), days, when I go to work (still scrambling to get caught up while people pile more work on my plate), and evenings, which is my free time. Tonight I made spaghetti and meatballs, and watched a…

I had all the intentions of doing something at least somewhat memorable this weekend, but it has not come to pass. I spent most of the day making an ornament for our advent calendar. We did leave the house once to go out for ice cream, but that’s it. We ended up playing Trivial Pursuit,…

Robin had her last cheer practice before this weekend’s competition in New Orleans and they hit it in one shot. We cheered on Cobalt, the level 3 team, who was struggling a bit more. Even though they struggled, the support and cheering on in that room was tangible. I’m excited to see what happens this…

I went out to the garage to take Robin to cheer and it looked like the sky was on fire. Also today, I dropped Christina off for dance and left to pick up Pinot from the groomer, but got all the way to the library to drop off books before I remembered that what I…
