While my focus these days is on looking forward, I want to take a moment to reflect upon my success in achieving some intentions I stated months ago when 10 weeks of summer loomed on the horizon. So, let's see...how did I do? Well, 4 of the items I didn't even come close to. I don't … Continue reading The best intentions

Running into Grace
Driving through 3 states to bring one's child to school would probably constitute as a full enough day for most, but, you know me, always looking to kick it up a notch. The four-mile Moonlight in Vermont race provided the perfect opportunity to extend Saturday right into Sunday, and got me into my 4th state … Continue reading Running into Grace

Last week was a crazy, busy week for me with an activity or event every single night other than Monday, which ended up … Continue reading Running out of my comfort zone – and county

My big fear is that he will attempt to chase something he sees outside of the window … Continue reading Screen play
