Last week’s recap:  Monday- rest day Tuesday- nothing again (I feel like a slob) but a very emotionally draining day at work again! If it’s not one thing, it’s another.  Wednesday- 4 mile run.  Emotionally draining day #2.  Dealing with panicking young people is quite stressful!  Thursday- with house guests, I had no intention of… Continue reading Below 60….. freezing!

Oh I cannot believe it is already Sunday evening.  This week felt like it would never end and once the weekend started, it flew by… so sad.

We’ve started the walk/jog a little bit… Continue reading Humpday Wednesday

It was so nice to know that last week was a 4-day week.  I think every week should… Continue reading Aaaand it’s Monday again.
