Sunday in Vegas (Part I)

Before I begin a recap of our last night in Las Vegas, I would like to inform you that I DID workout today.  I did Week 2, Day 3 of the Bridge to 10K (B210K) program, which consists of a 5 minute warm up, 4 minutes of running + 1 minute of running x 5, [...]

Saturday AKA Garth Brooks Day

Okay…where were we.  Oh, yeah, I was about to face plant into my food after a VERY long day. On Saturday morning, after 8 hours of sleep we got ready and headed downstairs for breakfast.  We all started off with Mimosas. What happens in Vegas… After a day of airport food I decided to start [...]

Viva Las Vegas!!

Good morning!! Well, we finally made it to Las Vegas!!  Before we get to that point, though, let’s rewind a little. When it came time to eat at the airport for the THIRD time yesterday, some of my healthy habits went out the window. But, boy was it yummy!!  I had a regular, salted pretzel. [...]

I’m sorry, your flight has been delayed.

Hello, hello!!  I am coming to you from the Cleveland airport.  “But you’re supposed to be in Vegas, already!?” you say…well, yes…but before I get to that, let’s talk about yesterday. As usual I was in a hurry in the morning so instead of preparing breakfast I got a egg and turkey bacon sandwich on [...]

Race Prep

Good evening!  As you can imagine, I’ve got an early morning, so I’m going to make this quick.  After packing up the car, Josh and I made a pit stop at Subway for their new breakfast menu.  I ordered a ham, egg, and cheese on an English muffin with tomato and spinach.  Eh.  That pretty [...]

Home Again

Good evening!!  I made it back to Chesapeake in one piece.   My wake-up call came at 4:10AM so I could get packed up, call a cab and make to the airport with time to spare before a 6:30AM flight. The great staff at Holiday Inn Express Pensacola Beach helped me out a lot this [...]

Ft. Pickens and Ginseng Soda

Good afternoon evening, everyone!!!  What a beautiful day it’s been.  After breakfast my mom napped while I blogged.  Then we took a short road trip (7 miles) down the road to Fort Pickens. I think I’d only been here once before when I was in college (did I mention I went to college in Pensacola?) [...]

Eatin’ Goooood!!

Good morning, from Pensacola Beach, Florida!!!  We arrived back in Pensacola yesterday around 2 and them headed to Pensacola Beach to check into the hotel.  We’re staying at the Holiday Inn Express and I have to say, we’re pretty impressed with it.  Free chocolate chip cookies, beach view, free breakfast, free high speed internet, and [...]

Sweet Home Alabama

Okay, not really.  I’ve never lived in Alabama.  But, my mom has a house there and that’s where we are tonight.  She wanted me to see her house and have dinner with some extended family that we have there. Today’s travels went very well.  No delays or cancellations. I picked up the latest Sookie Stackhouse [...]
