In my cycling era…
Remember when I said I was going to start riding more and maybe even bike commute to work? Well, I’m doing it! Way, way earlier this year (or maybe even in December), I registered for a gravel grinder at the end of June. I chose the short course, which is only 23.8 miles, but it… Continue reading

small joys of the month
The last six weeks have been busy, busy, busy. I’ve been traveling for four of the last five weekends. We’ve had guests and Patrick was racing MMT. Groceries have been slim and I’ve generally gotten a little less sleep than I’d love. BUT! Life has been amazing. I cannot complain one bit. In fact, there… Continue reading

The episode came out at the beginning of the year (classic timing) and was a tiny bit corny, but I was surprised to find I enjoyed the mental exercise! After leaving a toxic job… Continue reading

Happy Monday! Spirits are high, the sun is shining today, and I’m coming off a really fun and beautiful weekend. As I type this, the redbud tree outside our house is blooming with such gorgeously pink flowers, there is a near cloudless sky, and I am going to go on an easy little run later… Continue reading

SPRING BINGO!
Another season, another activity plan! Remember when I made the Christmas Coffee Advent Calendar? We had so much fun and I loved how much it made me stay in the moment. Well, I was perusing Pinterest this week and came across a ton of spring bingo cards. I felt inspired by them but they were… Continue reading

Today is a bit gloomy, but we’ve otherwise had fantastic weather this week and it’s hard not to feel joyful when the sun is shining. 🙂 It’s a bit cliche, but taking the time to reflect… Continue reading

Another great race weekend in the books! Patrick and I headed out to Harrisonburg on Friday afternoon to gear up for Hone Quarry 40 Miler on Saturday. I did this race last year as a tune up for MMT, so I thought it would work perfectly for the same purpose as I enter my last… Continue reading
