This week was all about recovering from my race. I raced a 10K on Sunday and felt a twinge in my hip afterwards and it stayed on throughout the week. So I used my judgment and decided to take it easy, focusing on physical therapy and walking the rest of…

Um, excuse me, but WHERE did September go? I blinked and it was over! I started writing this blog post and completely forgot that the month had ended. So, here’s how September went: No injuries! This is the first September in 2 years that I was able to run! Last…

Well, 2/3 of the kids are back to school! That means earlier (and darker) mornings, rushed afternoons, but back at a routine, which isn’t that bad. And next week, GM goes back and for the first time ever, they’ll all be in the same school. It’s exciting and also I’m…

Continue reading →: The last week
Welcome to my last week of summer. Sadly, this was our last full week of summer vacation. But on a positive note, my parents planned an impromptu trip in to visit for a few days! They came in Thurs. night and left Sun. morning, and it was great to see…
