When I started to run yesterday after my warm up walking, it became quickly apparent that the lower back pain I've been feeling the last few days is a kidney stone.  FML.  It's on the move, so hopefully I can inspire it to pass today.

It's very icy and dangerous here this morning.  I had plans to go to a SkyFitness class at the new local SkyZone, but opted to stay home as people are being urged not to drive.  Sigh.  It is supposed to warm up later, so I hope I'll be able to get out

Temp is in the teens, feels like is in the single digits.  I do not want to leave my house today.  Ugh.  I know it's going to be freezing in the fitness classroom this morning :/  But... if I can make it through my early morning, today is the best day

Busy day here for me!  I'm taking the car to get new tires and then it's back home to run (it's 26 feels like 18 at the moment, hopefully it'll warm up), then it's chores around the house, reading FOR FUN, and in the evening I'm going to a Bystander In

All of my grades for the term have posted and I'm happy to share that I'm still rocking straight As.  Considering how college went for me the first time around when I was a kid, my success this time around still astounds me!  13 more credits to go for

Do you have any weight loss related silly secret confessions?  

I do.. I Skype with my mom every week and sometimes feel like I watch my own picture more than I watch hers.  On Sunday I was noticing how narrow my shoulders have become and I was

I been thinking a lot about my goals for 2017. I've never been a New Year's resolution person - those always seemed so vague and useless and I've never met a person who remembered their resolutions for an entire year.  I have, however, found that havin

It's Tuesday!  I had a great day yesterday doing NOTHING involving school.  I mean, I ran around like a headless chicken and had lots of errands and forgot to eat lunch, but no school!  I imagine today will be similar.  Only less running around aside f

It's Monday!  And you know what I'm not doing this week?!  I'm not doing school work!!  Yay!  No school for me until January 4.  Just all the other things I need to accomplish in that time.

I went to bed last night without an alarm set!  First time in... I can't even remember how long.  I woke up at 8am and then stayed in bed dozing for 2 hours.  Glorious.

I am officially in "wait for grades to post" phase of the term.  I have submitted all my work.  I'm spending the day at the movie theater to celebrate - going to see Miss Sloane and Loving.  Assuming traffic past the new MGM doesn't screw me over!  As

ARGH.  OH ate my post and now I don't feel like being witty again!  Short version:  It's super cold.  Thank you all for your awesome well wishes for me and my exams.  I'm almost finished the term, just my final for PHY1010 left which I'll start today a

Busy day for me, so this will be a quick post.  I hope you're all having a lovely Thursday.  I'm getting ready to go outside and run.  It's cold and wet and gross and I feel icky, but... oh well.

First day in the entire term that I could sleep in and not feel guilty for wasting time.  It did come at the cost of missing fitness classes, but I'm 100% okay with that.  I've been running on empty for many weeks now and really needed the rest.  

Busy day for me today!  It's the last exam for Anatomy & Physiology that matters.  Thankfully I can get a 50% and still maintain an A for the class, but I still need to study!

I am completely unprepared for today.  I'm checking out a meeting of secular humanists in my area midday (I had no idea that the very religious area where I live had such a thing, so this is very exciting) and then I've got a voice recital.  I feel ext

It's a running day for me because tomorrow is my voice recital (Eeeek!) and I've learned the hard way (many times) that running and singing do NOT mix.  So running today it is.  This is also the day for my longest run in a really, really long time.  8.

It's still December.  I'm in denial :P  But I'm totally finished with my Anatomy and Physiology lab class and ended strong with an A for the term.  Now I've just got to finish the lecture portion, Physics lecture and lab, and Intro to Careers in Sport

In 2015 I had awesome goals and posted updates every month to stay on track.  I started 2016 with poorly conceived goals and then got all off track because of everything that this year has thrown at me so I haven't been sharing goal updates at all.  Bu

Happy last day of November!  I have procured tickets to see Neil Gaiman (one of my favorite authors) in New York in April (at Bard College) so I am super excited!
