November 15, 2009 | Uncategorized

So i realized I am not very good with this blog thing, nor do I think anyone reads it. I have decided to turn this isnto a running/training blog. Even if no one reads it, it will be good for me to log my workouts, think through some things dealing with my running/training etc.

SO this week was a total bust. i got new shoes, FINALLY as my other ones are a year old and worn completly down. I was having BAD hip pain on my left side on long runs, then it turned into on ALL runs, so I finally got me some Nike vomero 4’s. I ran 3 miles in them Monday and it felt really good!…..and then I got sick! So, its saturday night, and I havent run since monday! I was suppsoed to do an 8 mile run today, too sick to do it, so i feel very behind in my training for my half which is in January!!! I have to get a move on here!
so see how sweaty I am in the pic below? That was the Run for the Son 5k in August. I will NEVER run a 5k in hilly downtown Jackson in AUGUST ever ever AGAIN!
hopefully I will be back to running monday and I can get in a long run next Saturday.

Tiny home + lake views + s’mores = the perfect T Tiny home + lake views + s’mores = the perfect Tennessee weekend 🌲🔥🏡
We spent a few days at Natchez Trace (part of @thousandtrails), and it was exactly what we needed—peaceful, fun, and full of charm. #100daysofcamping 

We stayed in the cutest little tiny house (shoutout to “Sadie” from @petite.retreats!), and filled our time with:
✨ Lake strolls
⛳️ Mini golf showdowns
🏀 Basketball games
🔥 Campfire s’mores
🦆 duck feeding
…and plenty of unplugged moments together 💛

This spot truly has it all—whether you’re glamping, RVing, or just looking for a getaway that blends nature and comfort.

🎥 Press play for a peek at our cozy stay and all the memories we made at this beautiful campground!

😎 90’s summer loading….. If you grew up in 😎 90’s summer loading…..

If you grew up in the 90’s like me, you know we had THE BEST summers. They were simple, but magical. Yes sometimes we got bored and fought with our friends, but the freedom and fun was so memorable. 

In today’s world of screen time and filling every second of the day with “fun” for our kids so they never have to be bored, it makes me sad that they won’t experience what we did. So I am trying to recreate a 90’s summer the best way I can.

Will we still travel? Of course, it’s my job. But when we are home, I’m not filling every second with fun. I’m making her figure it out. Read a book. Do some chores. Then just…go. Play. Be a ten year old while I work. Then in the evenings we can play some more, together, while I tell stories of all the crazy and fun things I did as a kid during those special 90’s summers. ☀️ 🩷
