I forgot some things

Posted on February 16, 2017 by G

I used to be able to go long stretches without getting sick, but not this winter. It seems like I’m coming down with some new thing every month now. I blame my plague carrier husband– he always gets sick with … Continue reading →

Run, meditate, dive

Posted on February 10, 2017 by G

I had to drive to work today (ugh) so I had to leave the house super early and arrived at work super early. This meant I didn’t feel bad at all about a longer gym session this morning: 40 solid … Continue reading →
