Enough Rain!!!!!!

It seems to me that since January it has been raining. Pretty much all the time for three months.  Anyone who knows me Knows I HATE RAIN.  I have a molecular reaction to  anytime it rains for more than one day.  So you can imagine the way I'm reacting to those clouds on every single day of my google weather app.

It rains all the time around here so we have to adjust.  I have learned how to drive in it, I have learned how to run both in the rain and on the treadmill, I've learned to walk around in it.  

So this weekend I had to get a 9 mile run in because I am training for the Shape Magazine Women's Half Marathon in Central Park.  I'm not playing with this I am running. 

So I drove to Morgan Hill, popped on a baseball cap (which I will only wear when it rains),  donned a jacket which would keep me dry and went out for a fantastic 9 mile run.  And did it.  Before the rain

My theory of less running is actually working.

And then there's Benjie.  He's getting used to the rain and going out in it.  I still refuse to walk in the rain but will try and get him that today.  We'll see.

Guess Who's Back

Guess Who is back????

No it's me.  I'm back.  There's so much going on I have to bring back the blog.

So let's talk about three things I'm obsessed with.

First of all.  There's Benjie.  Benjie has decided to become extra adorable in his old age.  It could be that he misses Bella .  It could be he's stepping up .  But there are so many great pictures of him and great things that he does.  Follow me on instagram.  You will see him there.

My other obsession lately is baking.  In November I watched the Great British Baking Show.  I was hooked.  If these people had such joy with baking then so would I.  I vowed to bake every weekend and I have.  I hope my staff likes baked goods because I'm going to be feeding them weekly.

And then finally there's running.  Yes I'm still running.  I'm training for another marathon!  I've made peace with the treadmill (it's been raining for 3 months) and feeling strong and at peace with the sport. I've realized given how old I am AND working 14 hour days.  I'm just happy to run.  Plus ! I'm an ambassador!
