Yesterday was AWESOME

Okay, first I ran just under thirteen miles with running club, the first five of which I did with a very fast runner who (lucky for me, not for him) was recovering from surgeries, so I could keep up. (Until he challenged me to a sprint up a hill. ) [...]

Superbowl?

Posted by Carrie on 08 Feb 2010 | Tagged as: Gabriel, Items of Interest

There was this football thing yesterday. As is my wont, I called my dad and my brother to find out who I was supposed to be cheering for. My brother had no dog in the fight; my dad was cheering for the Saints because he’s from Maryland and there’s still apparently a bit [...]

Completely unrelated

Apparently, it’s National Delurker Day.

So, come out, come out, wherever you are. I’ll even give you a question to answer in a comment, to make it easier! Just something that’s been brewing in my head since I posted a group picture from my high school graduation, and a friend commented how we “thought [...]

Hurray, free coffee!

New clothes

Old Navy is really moving its winter inventory. I was having a crappy evening, and I dropped by to see what was left.

Click through to see them individually. Please excuse the utter exhaustion and no makeup. You’ll understand; it’s been one of those days weeks.

Video messages from Santa

Get you one!
(It’s aimed at Canadian kids, but if you select “other country,” it stays neutral in the message. Sam and Gabe loved this!)

Not-so-hypothetical question

Go here and take a look at the picture. I’ll wait.
Okay, done? Now, tell me, especially those of you who have kids or spend a lot of time around them: what is that?

Blueberry Beet Muffin?
I might taste one…
Heck, yeah!
I’m with Gabe. Aliens.

Zydrate comes in a little glass vial!

Apropos of absolutely nothing except that I stumbled upon it by chance earlier today and have been obsessing wildly about it ever since, this is opening tonight. Nowhere closer to me than Minneapolis, of course, so I won’t be seeing it yet. Not sure that I really want to, either, but…something keeps me [...]

Morning breaks

Posted by Carrie on 05 Nov 2008 | Tagged as: Items of Interest, Samuel

I’m feeling really, really happy right now. Of course, last night was full of serious discussion with Sam, whose school had a mock election and who came home on a bus with kids hanging out of every window, shrieking for Obama. Apparently, Sam got confused and when the announcements at [...]

Fatigued

Posted by Carrie on 04 Nov 2008 | Tagged as: Fitness and Health, Gabriel, Items of Interest

I run on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays lately. Looking ahead, it’s calling for rain on Thursday and a rain-snow mix on Saturday, so I wanted to make the most of today in case I didn’t feel up to longer runs in inclement weather. Gabe didn’t have school today, which was fortunate in [...]
