I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today, that’s for sure. It was raining. Hard. Still. That meant no morning run, which made me sad because even at 5:30 am I felt rested and ready to run. [...]

I like to run in the morning at least five days a week. I’m sure many people will say that’s too much, but it’s how I like to start my day. It’s much less about the calorie burn than it [...]

A Long Day, A Great Night

I am so looking forward to Daylight Savings Time this weekend! Getting out of bed wasn’t easy this morning. My alarm went off at 4:30 am again — Darn it, Steve Jobs, help fix my iPhone! An hour later, when [...]

I Survived My First Day!

Date: November 1, 2010 at 9:47 pm- by Ali- Comment(s): 3

Well, so far at least. As productive as ABS and I were all weekend, there was (and is) still so much to be done at the apartment! We got to bed fairly early last night and, as predicted, I didn’t [...]
