Despite our snow storm on Monday, it did feel like spring by this weekend. the snow is nearly all melted. (And yes the church next door cleared a path through the snow mountain without us having to complain) the crocuses are up! Slinky caught mouse #2, cornered behind our TV trays.  Smaller this time, and […]

Well, I jinxed myself. After crowing about the terrific snow we’ve had, this week was warm, sunny, and had sufficient rain that most of the snow is now gone. Me and my big mouth. On the other hand, that means there is plenty of dry pavement and thus I can run outside. Between a busy […]

It has not been a banner month for following up on New Year’s resolutions, but it hasn’t been terribly bad either. One of my goals was to combat procrastination.  I thought picking one neglected task per week would be a good goal.  Rather than dwelling on how long I’ve been thinking about doing something but […]

I’m trying something new in this post. When I post images on this site I have to edit them down to the proper size. From now on I’ll try to link to the original photo by clicking on the edited photo in my post so you can see the full size image. Susan went to […]

So other than dinner, what is new anyway?  Since our last post, here’s what we’ve been up to. Brian canned 7 quarts of fresh peaches, his first foray into home canning, with delicious results. FTSD’s awesome social chairs planned a kayaking trip to Hopkinton on August 22.  The weather was gorgeous and it was hard […]

Brian and I ran the Indianapolis Mini-Marathon, a 13.1 mile race, on May 3. It starts in downtown Indy, goes out to the Speedway, around the race track, and back to downtown. Shortly after the start, the race course goes past the zoo. A large and small elephant were looking down the hill at us, […]

Sometimes weight plateaus and sometimes fitness plateaus. While my weight didn’t budge this week after making progress the past two, my running speed increased by leaps and bounds. On Sunday Su and I ran 10k in 57:20 on a hot and humid afternoon. My previous best time this year was 1:00:00 on June 29. On […]

Did you get the memo that last week was National Fall Off the Floor Week? If you had been reading Martina Navratilova’s book you would have known this. Su and I have been progressing through the workouts and while they have occasionally taxed us, they haven’t been all too difficult either in strength or agility […]
