“Resolutionary” Good Things

In the spirit of New Years smashed together with a little of Oprah’s favorite things style, here’s a list of things that this Swim Bike Mom loves, helpful hints, and links to some of the good stuff on the blog… that will help propel you into the New Year! (Or at least give you something […]

The Prodigal Sign! Returns!

So my treasured sign… from my first half Ironman went missing shortly after the race. I had big dreams of having the special sign… to be a SBM Traveling Sign. A Traveling Sign?  Yes. For example, when a SBM friend has a big race, we would ship the sign to them… then they would take lots […]

The Art of Not Losing Your Mind

Ooops. Perhaps it is all too late for me. When the monkey hat comes out, we’re all doomed. The Hot Mess has returned. I woke up this morning still sick. Our family was hit by the Christmas plague. First, the girl Swim Bike Kid brought pneumonia home, then the Expert got something horrible and then […]

Tuesday Talk Your Head Off

1)  Running and biking with a broken rib, while painful, is not nearly as bad as swimming. This morning, I had a Christmas gnome named Franklin riding on my back while I swam… every two strokes, he used a magic gnome knife to stab me in the right side. It was a fun swim, to […]

Unpredictable at Best

Help from My Friends

Sweet Red and Yoda came to the Swim Bike Family abode last night after I shared a photo of 17 huge boxes of books that arrived yesterday. The Expert and I had underestimated the man/woman power it would take to sign, seal and ship out the 350 pre-ordered books… the Swim Bike Mom and Dad needed some help. […]

Side of Ribs with That Bicycle Sandwich?

After yesterday’s bike crash, I’ve calmed down a little. But I’m still muttering alot of bad words. And I feel like I have been hit by a train. Everything hurts on my right side. I couldn’t sleep very well last night, despite having a few martinis at the Expert’s birthday dinner.  I thought the vodka […]
