I made the dark chocolate truffles today. It seemed to take forever because I kept getting interrupted with life. Those are finally done. I put too much couverture in the temperer and it kept crawling up the edge and spilling over when I was trying to cool it down.
I need to do [...]

I ran 7 miles last night without bandaids on my feet. No blisters. I kept the pace light, 9:30, in case it was the pace that did it. I just needed the miles, having not run since Saturday. I’ve been really bad about keeping up with the mileage this week. [...]

Today was supposed to be a 17 mile run. I planned it all out so that it was start and end at a little country farm store that served lunch and sold (among other things) strawberry rhubarb pie. It was a marvelous plan. A long run followed by pie. Joy. [...]

I have 17 miles to run tomorrow morning. I got good sleep last night and I ate carbs today and had spaghetti for dinner. My toe socks are washed and I have cold water in the fridge. I think I’m ready. I just hope my feet are ready.
Y’all have a good [...]

Dear Mars,
How are you? How is your business doing? I am very concerned about you.
You see, I was always under the impression that you had money. Lots of money. Having lots of money, you should be able to afford spending some of it on advertising. You know, pay for commercials on TV and radio, ads [...]

I ran my 4 miles.
7:58 pace.
I got another blister where the bandage didn’t cover.
Can I yell the F-word on my own blog?

I killed a mouse in my office yesterday.
I had found him running around in there earlier in the week, so I got a trap from maintenance. At first we used peanut butter, but the mouse/mice only licked it off the trap and got away. So I switched to bread. Dead mouse.
Last night I dreamed I [...]

I don’t know what is going on with my feet, but I am getting blisters like crazy.
I’ve been running in the Vibram Five Fingers (VFF) and haven’t had issues until recently. It just doesn’t make sense. I will run a 15 mile long run and have ZERO problems. Feet feel nice and blister free. No [...]

Came back from a week away at boy scout camp.
Found my newly-upgraded computer OS.
Discovered all my outlook folders were deleted by accident.
Ouch.
Please pray for Tuesday.
