Twisted Blisters II (Page 23)

good for you! maybe Dee will follow your lead! hehe! she is soooo overworked! It is freezing here and I may make this a day of rest! I worked really hard the past few days and although I feel like I could go out and run a good distance...the cold air is pushing me to stay in and get caught up since I was away yesterday! decisions decisions! way to already wralk for the blisters!

It's a little easier for me to waltz in at 10:30 - what are they going to do? Fire me?? hahahaha!

I wish they would hire someone to help Dee - it's nuts that they won't be filling that position until August

August...???? I thought it was sooner then that! OMG!!!!! why does she stay there?

I think that's right - it's not for quite a while, I know that much

I have no idea why she stays - she must like what she does

no, she must LOVE what she does...the worst part is she is not eating lunch....and not getting a break. I will work really hard...put in 10-12 hours...but no lunch - I DON'T THINK SO! makes for a grumpy girl! hehe I love food...that is why I have to work out sooooo much! food likes me too! it likes to stay with me! hehe

I'm with you - I did that once already in my career - learned the hard way that balance is important

I just hope they are going to reward her in some way that makes it worth while

like a million $$ or something

Hello Blisters!  I am back from the chilly slopes of Vermont!  It was a fabulous weekend and I can say that the highlight had to be dog sledding with my 7 yo (she doesn't ski).  Running through the woods with a team of 10 dogs, crisp white snow, 11 degree temp, and a full moon.  It was awesome!  I highly recommend it. 

I got my run in and I am now at 14 miles, with only 6 left to do, which shouldn't be a problem.  I didn't run in Vermont as it was too cold....I don't know how Karen does it.

Sounds like everyone was busy over the weekend!  Julie is a race report up yet?  I haven't wandered over to look.

LOL yeah - i think a million dollars would work for me...;o)

Hi Tammy!

wow, that sounds awesome!

its up..but my time is not....since my racing buddy had a family crisis! can you believe a family crisis takes presidence over racing with me! the nerve! hehe!

I did the run, but barely finished! I will have some pictures later today! sounds like you had fun! I took a dog sled ride in Anchorage and you are right...there is nothing like it! great fun! sure would not want to do the iditarod...I am with you in stating that Karen is a SHE-STUD along with Allyssa...for running in the cold! I think it would be the dreadmill for me! and man do I dread the dreadmill! ;o) good to see you back....poor Beth has been holding down the fort!

See Beth the pixie dust is working....try it again....maybe we will bring back some of the other Blisters who we do not hear from....after all you were able to get Frank to correspond while he is on vacation! that is some pixie dust!!!! ;o)

lyssa-gator - 2008-01-22 10:38 AM hey twisties!! MAN i just never have enough time to sit on here like i used to!! it STINKS!! i ran this morning, normal temps for this time of year here is--maybe mid 30's to mid 40's and the last few days it's been low 20's and high teens. it is wrecking my pace!! i ran about a mile and a half this morning, in like 18 minutes! that's not normal for me, PLUS i was freezing my butt off the whole time!! i never thought i'd say it, but i almost miss running in the HEAT!! hector--cool site, we rent those usually once a year, they're AWESOME, my kids go ape in the summer for those. beth-i read all about your move, and your big decision, and the whole thing, and i never had the chance to say congratulations!! i think it's awesome, and i think your 12 yo (??i think??) is RAD for the encouragement he gave you. he rocks. you rock. blisters rock. ok i gotta go get in the shower, i'm still FREEZING!!!

Allyssa...I was just speaking of you and your large huevos...for running out there in the conditions...no matter what they be! glad that you dropped in for the short time....keep it up! I swear I do not know how you, Karen and our little chipit do it!!! whatever you are doing to get yourself out there in the elements....bottle it and send it to the rest of us...because I am a TRUE wimp when it comes to cold! you got me to run in the rain Allyssa...and I actually found I liked it...but I do not think that I can ever say that about running in freezing temps....;o) keep it up!!!!

can you believe it?

i have to go to a meeting

bbiab

Yeah I actually thought about craigslist.com as well but you have to update it daily, too much of a pain in the butt.

Hi Twisted Blisters.  Frank is at the dentist right now.  Poor baby.  I'm so mean, I choose not to sit in the waiting room for 90 minutes.  I'll go back after about 70 minutes so that he won't have to wait on me when he gets done.

Julie, we will give you a call later today and figure out when to get together.

I agree, lets get a petition going and submit it to her job for a raise. Do you think it will work? Ok maybe it won't work, but the thought is there.

just have to update once a week...it will not post to the top of the page each day...but if someone searches for an inflatable your ad will still post there! I get a tons of business for my brother who sells Point of Sales Registers...I get so many hits from them! much better then anywhere else we have tried! worth a try!

Sounds good...poor Frank is right! not that you are not there, but he starts a vacation the way you have! it can only get better! hows the grand baby!?  sure you are still having a good time! see you soon! I will be around! leave a message if I do not answer and I will get back to you....

can only say no...right!?!?! hehe

I need a haircut! I need lunch....ok...I am off too...for a run and then lunch....feel you blisters later! ;p)

I thought it was daily. I will go ahead and try it, thanks.
