Finding Radiance

I conked out way early last night.  We both did, actually.  I woke up at my usual time (which meant more sleep – yay!). John did not like waking up when I normally get up  It was a drizzly and gray morning.  We headed on out for bagels: I have a nice broken blood vessel [...]

A little of this and a little of that this fall weekend. The bittersweet in the neighbor’s bushes are now colored up and shows up now that leaves have dropped: My foot is feeling better and better every day.  I think it will feel pretty much normal by Monday or Tuesday. My wrist will take [...]

Welcome Lee to upstate NY.  Not.  We sure don’t need this rain. If only there was some way to get this rain to Texas. That meant no biking to bagels this morning. Instead, I did go old school with a Leslie Sansone DVD for a 2 mile workout.  Haven’t done one of those in many [...]

It’s Bagel Wednesday!  John and I were up pretty early. Since my gym days are switched this week, we just left from home, which meant my legs were feeling pretty strong without having lifted.  The path was so pretty today.  It’s getting greener for sure! We arrived at the North Country Coffee Cafe after 6 [...]

The end of the week.  Jeez it went by fast.  And the end of April, too! The last day of the no lifting week.  My body needed the lifting break, but it sure sent me into a snack spiral this week.  Not quite sure what that was all about. Fridays are designated oat days, so [...]

Happy Pi day! (3/14).  Or happy Pie day, as we like to think of it… I seem to be doing okay with the time change and sleeping, which is a little surprising to me.  I was up maybe a squidge later than normal, but not bad. I was hungry and ready for some breakfast!  Today [...]

Bagel Day!  I was up for a ride on the trainer today.  It was minus 12 this morning at 6:30.  Oh my gosh is that cold!  I was glad to have the trainer to ride inside. I grabbed a coconut water since I was going for a longer ride and sipped on it during my [...]

One of those snack kind of days.  It was bound to be that way right from the start.  I had a poor night’s sleep and woke up at 4:30 am unable to get to sleep.  I finally got up at 5 to at least go do some work instead of staring into the dark.  Proof [...]

I am officially beat.  Not to mention my brain is like an egg scramble.  I woke up super hungry.  I had a Luna Bar as a pre-ride snack while I waited for John to get up. I also did some work.  It seems like I am always working.  Oh wait, I am! We headed out [...]

Okay, I don’t know where to start, from today or last night?  I guess I will give you a little recap from yesterday.  John chose Pizzeria Uno for his birthday dinner. Little known blog fact that we lived outside of Chicago for 5+ years.  We loved the deep dish pizza there.  So, that is what [...]
