Continue reading →: A Wacky Week with Lots of Running
We had a wacky week here. First, my car wouldn’t start due to a dead battery. But I had just gotten a new battery less than a year ago, so I was really worried that something else was up. Then, GM got a stomach bug and was home sick. Then,…

Continue reading →: Hello 2024!
Last week I know I mentioned that 2023 was a good year, but so far 2024 is also off to a good start. I entered the year with a slight head cold, but compared to 2023 (where we started the year with COVID), I’m already off to a better January.…

I am so glad that I’ve gotten back into reading. I used to love reading as a child, but slowed down my reading after college (stressful job where I worked too much) and then when I gave birth to my oldest son. But somehow, reading found me again after I…

Happy ALMOST New Years! Wow, where did 2023 go? It was a good year with NO injuries, some cross training, and even some races with my kids! I set out the year with these goals: Goal 1: Add in something else besides running into my schedule. Goal 2: Continue to…

Well, after some wonderfully warmish, clear December weather to kick off the month, this week brought cold and ice and snow. I know I shouldn’t complain because it is December in Cleveland, but I hate when the weather interferes with my running plans 🙂 That said, I had a good…

Yikes, where did December go? I took off of writing last week, because I was out of town. My dad had open heart surgery and I went out to NYC to be with him for the procedure. He is doing well thankfully, and I’m back in Cleveland while my mom…

Continue reading →: Chia Jam (So Easy!)
This is another one of those recipes that’s not really a recipe – it’s so easy! It only has three ingredients and takes 15 minutes to make. If you have kids — or anyone in your family — that loves jam, you HAVE to try chia jam! It’s a yummy,…

Continue reading →: SNOWvember
This week, winter came out of hiding and said hello to Northeast Ohio. That’s right, we had SNOW (and several inches) on Tuesday, which made my usual morning running routine a little messy and more difficult than usual. Between the snow – which meant a snow day for the kids…

Continue reading →: Turkey Week Runs
Well that was a whirlwind week! The past few days I’ve traveled 20+ hours in the car, spending time in three different states (not including Ohio!), but my heart is so full. I haven’t seen this family since lsat Thanksgiving, and while a year flies by, it’s been too long.…

Continue reading →: Before the Craziness Begins
I can’t believe the crazy/best time of year starts SO SOON. I really am not ready for the holidays this year. Earlier this week, one of my coworkers asked me if I was traveling next week. Traveling? I thought. Why would I be …. oh yeah! I had no idea that Thanksgiving…
Hello,
I’m Melissa
Welcome to I Crashed The Web — proof that I’ve been oversharing online since the early days of blogging. It started as a blog (back when that was cool), morphed into a mom blog (when that was cool), and now it’s my happy place for all the things I love: running, baking, reading, traveling and life with my family of five.
