40 Days and 40 Nights…

…until 70.3 race day.  Funny, Evan Almighty was on the tube last night.  I’m sure most of you have seen it – Steve Carrell is a successful senator who is called by God to build an ark.  He spontaneously grows a beard, animals start following him… hilarious.  A modern day Noah. Well, I’m starting to feel […]

Gratefulness on the Greenway

My almost-three year old daughter, Stella, woke up at 4:00am this morning and crawled into bed with us, soaking wet diaper, shirt and pants included. We have always had a “no kids in the bed rule,” but with our second child, and only recently, we have found that just tolerating her in the middle is […]

Spandex Spectacular

1.2 mile swim, plus 30 miles on the bike today.  (Was supposed to be 40 miles… time constraints plus ick plus… well, I lost 10 miles somewhere. “ooops.” ).  The swim felt good, but I was super disappointed in my time:  45 minutes?  In a pool?  That is not boding well for my 1.2 in […]

Today, I decided that I should no longer be a lawyer, and go straight into peanut butter marketing.I am pretty sure I made Peanut Butter & Co.’s sales rise just from this one little post….. Their website is: ilovepeanutbutter.com, which was going to be THIS site’s address. But it was, clearly, already taken. I am […]

Peanut Butter: A Love Story

Watching Forrest Gump, the other night with the Expert, I realized that I’m a little like Bubba. Not that I like shrimp that much (well, yes I do), but I kinda have similar conversations with the Expert about peanut butter. Anyway, like I was sayin’, peanut butter is the nectar of the gods.  You can […]

Today. 10 Years Ago.

Where were you? The Expert and I were set to be married the following month.  I was in Savannah, recently graduated college, living with my parents for the short time before being handed off in marriage. I had just finished taking the LSAT (the law school admissions test) the week prior.   I was sacked […]

Manic Depressive

Today. Was. Great.  A few days ago was terrible.  I wanted to quit. Today, I wanted to keep going.  And going. Therefore…. either I, or the sport of triathlon, is manic depressive.  Up down up down, cry, smile, whine, scream….CRAZY land. After a week or so of the doldrums and the “I can’ts” and “poor […]

More to Run For…

50 days. Until Ironman Miami.  40 days.  The amount of time this sweet baby boy has been on this earth. And in his short time on this earth, this little guy has moved me to tears, restored my faith, and caused me to pull my two little babies so close, thank my Lord for my […]
