My little girl turns 29 today. Say what?!?! A day for memories, gratitude, pride, fun, joy, celebration, cake and a good stiff drink!

I have ordered my first Smartphone. I hope we get along well. My last few phone relationships have been rather love/hate. #movingon

Thinking about all the folks out on the East coast. May you stay safe and sound tonight.

Some days it seems there is an over abundance of crabby people. Zen, baby, zen.

I don't think I'd make a good lion, wolf or bird of prey. No matter how hungry I was, I'd never be comfortable hurting another creature.

Much more fun texting when I'm up here and she's downstairs watching TV. Better than getting off my ass to go talk directly! #sillypleasures

Saturday mornin' and all the folks are out running together. Maybe I should find a running club. But what if I couldn't keep up!?

Feeling a lot of pressure today-worried I'll fail- have to get it all done- be the best-come out on top...hmmm...maybe too much coffee.

Dear Sleep Fairy: I have to get up in a couple of hours. So a few zzzzzzzs beforehand would be much appreciated. Love, Sleepless.

Some keep their distance. Others want to be needed. Some are dull. Others light the room. Some you can't escape and some can't be found.

Cesar is amazing. But I think my new favorite is Steve Backshall. He reminds me of a leprechaun who is extremely buff.

Cold toes! Numb thumb!

Another beautiful day for my lunchtime run! Yesterday I pooped out after a mile and a half. Unusual for me. But today we go the distance!

A restless night with dreams of home, playing under the weeping willows, and Pops. If only we had the power to make some memories real again.

Upon being introduced for the first time, he shook my hand and said, "You must be the woman." Ummmm.....

Any middle-aged man who goes to Walgreen's just to buy approximately 2 dozen little stuffed animals is all right in my book.

The moral of the story? Count your blessings for 40 days and 40 nights. :o)

Had a nice lunchtime run today and skipping the gym this afternoon so I can get ready to go out on the town with my buds. Friday!

Oh, it's gorgeous outside! It's been too hot to run outdoors at lunchtime lately but today it's perfect weather! Gimme those shoes, baby!

Weatherman says a cold front's coming thru which is going to cool things off significantly! Afterwards we'll only be in the mid-80s. Heh heh.
