Never gonna give you up

August 5, 2019August 5, 2019 likeafinevino4 Comments

I really thought I had given you up for good.  But just when I thought I had moved on and let you go, you would get inside my head.  Memories would pop up on Facebook.  I would see posts from friends that would remind me of you and I would feel sad because I missed… Continue reading Never gonna give you up

No, today I want to talk about my quiet, unofficial retirement from running.  For real this time.  I know in the past I have talked about it, considered it, and then ultimately would… Continue reading Retirement

The blogging thing has been fun, but it’s time to say farewell. When I first started the blog, it was a homework assignment for a web design class I was taking.  Blogging was something that I enjoyed doing, and so I’ve been blogging for about three years. Blogging has been great therapy for me.  It… Continue reading Farewell blog

As you know, my husband and I started working out at a gym last November.  David has been doing great; he has lost close to 30 pounds and we had to go shopping last weekend because all of his clothes are too big.  As happy as I am for him, I found myself being a… Continue reading F*ck you, scale!

Remember when I published a blog post earlier today about how I was seriously thinking about quitting running because I was worried I was doing permanent damage to my knee? Just kidding – BAZINGA!

January 4, 2017 likeafinevino5 Comments

For the first time since I started running almost six years ago, I’m considering retirement. Just typing these words makes me experience a tornado of emotions. But first, let me explain why I’m thinking of quitting for good.  I have some arthritis in my left knee.  The pain has been tolerable, and the knee didn’t… Continue reading Retiring from running?
