It’s only Wednesday right? It feels like Friday already. It has to be Friday already!! Ok, really I’m glad it’s Wednesday because DH comes home from work today and I am so glad.  I miss him plus I need the help, lol. I spent this past weekend+ dealing with an intestinal bug courtesy of the 4yo, who had the same lovely bug last weekend. Not fun for any of us. It left me playing serious catch up this week for work and other...

A constant dilemma for me is when to work out. The best time of day might be early before the kids are up, but honestly? I’m not a morning person. Not even a little bit. Maybe someday when my kids all sleep through the night 98% of the time (currently we are sitting at maybe 20% of the time if I’m being generous with my estimate).

Not that I’m registered yet, I’m scared of jinxing it. So here’s my new plan-and I’m on track so far! I...

Last Week’s Mileage One run, one cycle workout, no strength work. Total of 16 km. This Week’s Planned Mileage Well, today was a “rest” day, lol, and hopefully I’ll actually get in workouts every other day this week.  I’m...

I think I need to “just start” going to bed earlier! I am always up too late. And while I know of far too many people who stay up too late because they are tidying their houses, finishing off work or other tasks that they just couldn’t get to during the day, I stay up late because it is the only truly quiet and peaceful time I get to myself. I need sleep, but I must feel like I need this time for myself even more. Despite...
