Running in My this and that
I went running this morning. I ran for a total of six minutes, and walked for 20 minutes. It’s this beginners running plan where you walk 5 minutes, then run for 2 minutes, and just keep altern...

In the Kitchen in My this and that
I spent most of Saturday in my kitchen. Well, perhaps not most of it, but a good sized chunk of it; and believe it or not, I actually enjoyed it! I made a large pot of chicken soup, I prepared d...
Dreams in My this and that
Last night I had wild dreams. Perhaps it was due to the all-you-can-eat Brazilian barbecue we had for dinner. I dreamt first that my family was kidnapped and put in a truck and being driven down...
Traveling in My this and that
So, about 40 minutes after I wrote that last entry, Ben sat down beside me and said “lets just make a decision. Let’s decide we’re going to Europe, and we’ll save as much as we can and if we don...
Off my Butt in My this and that

POF in My this and that
So, in my younger days I joined Plenty Of Fish, the free website people use to find a match. Generally it’s used for one night hook-ups, but every now and then you can find a good egg. I actual...
A Year in Review in My this and that
Almost every year I do this survey, or a similar one. [1] What did you do in 2014 that you have never done before? Went to my 10 year high school reunion, read the whole entire Bible, bought a ...
Goodbye Health in My this and that
I’ve completely given up on eating well… Normally it isn’t this difficult for me to deny sugar, and stay away from the things that I shouldn’t eat… but this season is tough, and I haven’t kept up...
Fuzzy Eyes in My this and that
Twice while walking (once in the morning and once in the evening) outdoors, I’ve noticed that my vision is kind of fuzzy. I’ve noticed mostly after I’ve kind of just been staring off not really ...

A day off is a wonderful thing in My this and that
I have a few holiday days to use up before the end of the year, so I’ve taken one day off a week starting this week, until Christmas. What a great opportunity to get some Christmas shopping and...
Accomplishments in My this and that
Yesterday I decided I was tired of never knowing what to make for dinner. So I took out my very large soup pot and made a hug pot of soup. At the same time I also made two smaller pots of chili...
Quick Weekend in My this and that
After two weekends that were long it felt like this one went by too quickly. But boy did I have a good weekend! Friday night we stayed in. I did some reading, watched a bit of tv, just kind of ...
Thanksgiving in My this and that
Thanksgiving weekend was very great. Two big thanksgiving meals. More food than I could handle, I loved it. Plus time with family, which I always thoroughly enjoy. Ben and I had Monday to just...
My Birthday in My this and that
So I’m not better, but I feel quite a bit better. Slept more yesterday, was only awoken a couple of times with coughing fits. YAY! Praise God. Poor hubby is still sick too. We make a sad pair...
Sick, whiney and bitter in My this and that
Today would have been a really good at home day. I barely slept last night due to my constant coughing. I almost feel like I’m drowning sometimes, when my breathing feels all wet. My lungs are...
Upcoming Birthday in My this and that
My birthday is coming up! I LOVE my birthday… I love Ben’s birthday too. I think those two days may be my favourites out of the whole year. Just so much fun. I take the day of my birthday off ...
Sick with a Cold in My this and that
Today I am thankful to be functioning. I missed two days of work last week, the two busiest days of the week. You just can’t choose when illness is going to hit you. Wednesday night was our fami...
Fighting a cold in My this and that
Today I am thankful for the warmth in the weather we’ve been blessed with. I started feeling like I was fighting a cold yesterday, my sinuses feel weird, kind of full, and my glands are a bit swo...
Ben's Birthday in My this and that
So on Saturday we spent the day doing very little. I could tell Ben was bored, but I just had no ideas after cleaning the whole house about anything exciting we could do. I was quite enjoying d...
