I am relaxing? NOT!

I’ve been on vacation this past several days but with Christmas, mortgage stuff and the buying of a van, things have been nuts around here. So, I’ve decided to write this piddly post and concentrate on checking in with everyone else’s blog.

I hope your running is going well. I am eagerly awaiting January 1st – TWO MORE SLEEPS!



the countdown begins

Hey, how was your Christmas?

Just a few days till I get to start running again! I gave myself till January 1st to get the ol’ foot healthy and it feels good so I’m gonna go ahead and start again. Seems rather appropriate that a new year will bring a new start.

But I admit to feeling very nervous. Nervous I’ll injur something again…ONWARD!



merry christmas everyone!

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for your recent comments and emails. I intend on writing back to you but it has been really busy on a number of fronts lately.

The most important “front” is that Lori and I are new mortgage owners. We finally “own” (?) our home and the best part is that we’ve put together financing for a major renovation in our kitchen and living room.

We are so excited!

So, as you can imagine, between that, the website and my blogging, I’ve got a lot going on right now so thanks again for your visits. I’ll be in touch soon!
