Mud Bath Beer Party

No, I didn’t run in the mud, and it wasn’t any kind of crazy frat party, but those words in the title summarize the weekend events. This morning I ran a couple miles fairly easy. It was cool outside, there weren’t many cars out, and it was just comfortable.Yesterday, though, I took a bath in…

Five Fingers Day 2

This morning, I went out to “run” again. Took a little advice and went slowly this time. By slowly I mean, walked almost unbearably slowly. Grandma Finnigan in her Bobcat scooter would have lapped me a few times over, I’m sure. Literally, I took 10 minutes to walk to the end of my street! That…

It’s been awhile

Long time since I’ve posted, but I figured I’d go ahead and start back in again. Lots has gone on since… well… since I don’t know when. Today’s post is all about running. Christian wanted to start running back a couple of months ago, but he needed shoes. Well, yesterday during our chat on Skype…

Pictures

Everyone’s been bugging me about photos of the girls and stuff, so here are some pictures of our trip to Gatlinburg. Rosemary’s 5 months old and Piper’s 3 years old. Ashley and I are as youthful as ever… http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=200729&id=517627929&l=cf5224ba89

Whirlwind

It has been a whirlwind week and a half. Whirl of the Wind, that’s for sure. We had a baby (Wednesday). She went to the nursery to get cleaned up for an hour, which extended to a 3 day stay in the NICU. Then she went on the bilirubin lamp to help her jaundice. During…

Happy 30th!

My wife turns 30 today. Oops! I probably shouldn’t have said it out loud… not sure if it’s a secret or not. Really, 30 isn’t bad at all, and it fits Ashley nicely. She doesn’t look a day older than that first time I met her… oh… 5+ years ago. I’ll be honest, I think…

Parade displeasure

Was anyone else disappointed in the 4th of July parade this year (2009) in Lexington? I was so disgusted I sent a letter to the guy in charge. Only two patriotic “floats” and they were for our troops… I’m glad they were there at least, but none of the rest were even remotely American or…

Shups

Started the Hundred Pushups program again at work. I won the last contest but didn’t make it to 100… I hit 79, I believe. We’re doing it again, though. Hopefully I can make it this time. I’ve done 100 before, but didn’t get it for the contest somehow. Stupid pressure. I think you’ll be able…

Look what I caught!

Was taking a walk with Ashley, Melissa and Sandy and I looked up and there was a girl falling out of the sky! Fortunately I caught her and everything ended up okay…
