As a #Cubs fan I both enjoy seeing them whoop up on the Brewers and also have this nagging feeling we’re gonna be wishing we could’ve banked some of those runs for later in the series. #MLB

Good golly, the Brewers have a position player in to pitch in the 7th. #Cubs look like they’re just taking batting practice. Not gonna feel bad about running up the score a bit on the division leaders. #MLB

Green Chucks to go with my acolyte robe this morning. It’s Ordinary Time, after all. Very tempted to find them in all the various liturgical colors. ⚓️

With my 6.6 mile run this afternoon I am up to 74 miles for the month and just broke 500 miles for the year. The most I have run any year in my life, and there are still 4 months to go!

Reminder to myself that when I’m cranking up my keto diet again, my body isn’t as fueled as I’d expect when I go run.

This PSA brought to me by a 4-mile lunchtime run that was way harder than I anticipated.

I just about choked on my coffee.

Last first day of school for us here as the youngest starts her senior year of high school. Where does the time go?

With the kid back at college my home office gets moved back up out of the basement. I had kinda forgotten how nice it is to have sun coming in the windows while I’m working.
