Beautiful photo by Steele Photography I know, I have some explaining to do! After our midnight eloping in Las Vegas 5 years ago, we finally got to have the wedding of our dreams and it was SO much more than I ever could have hoped for. Nearly 2 months later, here I am, still dreaming […]

The Day(s) He Left
Posted in Uncategorized on March 7, 2015 | 1 Comment »
Oh Dan. You are my world. The first time he took me skiing in Niigata, Japan, January 2013 I don’t even know what to say. Dan is in the process of moving back to the US, and we’ll live together again. Words can’t express my joy. We haven’t lived together since December 2013, and we […]

Well, I’ve officially had my longest blogging hiatus of 3 months. Whoops! I’d like to get back to blogging regularly. For most of the fall I was working 7 days/ week and felt like I had no free time. The few hours I had at home before bed were just to shower and get ready […]

Once upon a time, Dan’s Aunt Brenda gardened some zucchini and went out of town for a few weeks. When she returned, they were absolutely HUGE. At Dan’s family reunion, Aunt Brenda gifted us a zucchini. As I was on crutches at the time, Dan’s father carried it to the car for me. I brought […]

On Saturday, September 20th, Kelsey and I ran the Beat the Blerch 10k in Carnation, Washington. It was an inaugural race put on by Matt Inman, recreational runner and creator of the web comic The Oatmeal. This was a race we signed up for back in May, and it was really exciting because it was […]

Shall we jump back to the last week of August and revisit the Disneyland half marathon? I went from being so incredibly excited to go to Disneyland, run the half and 10k, to worrying how I was going to get around on crutches. After ample Googling, I realized I’ll need to rent a wheelchair. My […]
Runner Down!

I really dislike blogging non sequentially, but my foot injury has taken a high priority in my life towards the end of summer and into fall. I work front desk sometimes at the gym 5:45am-1pm. I actually love it- I’m up early, cheery, I have friendly regulars, and finishing at 1pm lets me do other […]

So, this definitely happened over a month ago. I want to keep blogging, and also in chronological order, so here’s hoping I can keep doing that! I’ve been working a bunch lately and will resume nannying in a couple weeks. Oh, did I forget to mention I got another job? I work at 24 Hour […]
10,000 Steps

So for the month of July, I set a goal for myself to walk 10,000 steps. I didn’t think it’d be as hard as it was! If anything, it has shown me what a sedentary lifestyle I live. Some days I reached 10k steps with no problem. Usually on long run days. Other days, I […]
