Or not. I honestly don't understand the reason we let companies walk all over us when it comes to deliveries and services. "We will show up between 10 AM and midnight, so make sure someone is at home during that time." I guess we have no choice since pretty much any company does it, so … Continue reading Days 324 & 325… Special Delivery
Day 323… Smoothies
I've never priced how much it would cost to make my own smoothies, but in my head they are far too expensive so that is why I don't drink them nearly as much as I would actually like. I went to Roxberry's tonight because I had a coupon for basically a free smoothie. They … Continue reading Day 323… Smoothies
Days 319 & 320… C-c-c-combo Breaker!
So I was so incredibly busy that I didn't get a change to post my blog for Thursday. I'm sure that the entirety of the world was missing it. But here it is combined with Friday's information. I was very glad that I decided to go back to karate on Thursday. I still feel the … Continue reading Days 319 & 320… C-c-c-combo Breaker!
Day 318… One More Shot
After thinking about it all day long and discussing it with my sensei and others I've decided to stick out my karate for the time being. I will not do what we did on Tuesday (at least not until I am ready) and will tell others to back off if necessary, but I enjoy the … Continue reading Day 318… One More Shot
Day 317… Karate Kicked My Ass
Tuesday's karate class was the first time I thought to myself, "do I want to stick this out?" To start off, let me say that I don't think of myself as a weakling. Nor do I mind some pain. I played football, baseball, basketball, wrestling and did track & field for many years. I ran … Continue reading Day 317… Karate Kicked My Ass
Day 312… What a Week
This truly has been a crazy week.It all started out with my hair-brained idea to get a dog (which - consequently - completely loves my wife and ignores me) which chewed up all of Monday. Then there was the lack of sleep on Monday and Tuesday along with karate. Then on Wednesday was the exchange … Continue reading Day 312… What a Week
Day 311… Does Not Compute
...sleep necessary... unable to comply. This is what I felt like on Wednesday. Gidget has to be one of the cutest most lovable dogs I've ever seen but she - unfortunately - wasn't a sleeper. Tuesday night was nothing but a fight with me and the dog. She wanted to be in our bed but … Continue reading Day 311… Does Not Compute
Day 310… Not In The Mood
This happens to me occasionally. Whether it's waking up to exercise early, going to the gym after work or going to my karate classes... there are times where I just simply am not in the mood to do it. Those are the times that I struggle with myself. I don't usually have a reason to … Continue reading Day 310… Not In The Mood
Day 309… My New Running Partner
It's never fun to run alone. At least not for me. Maybe "fun" isn't the correct term. But the fact is... I tend to run a lot better when I am running with someone. Whether it is with my wife by my side or in a group during a 5K I always seem to do … Continue reading Day 309… My New Running Partner
Days 306, 307 & 308… The Race Is On
...and here comes pride in the backstretch... I remember that song being done by Sawyer Brown. I guess I should have known that it was previously done by a legend. I'm not a huge George Jones fan, nor a country fan, but I do know a legend when I see one. Friday was a … Continue reading Days 306, 307 & 308… The Race Is On
