Running Site - USA Track & Field

One of my favorite running sites that allows you to plot your running course almost anywhere in the USA and then tells you how far you are going to go. Love it!

Memorial Day Weekend


Ben and I had a nice weekend with plenty of activities. Friday night we hung out at Norm and Megan's for Acacia Dinner Club. It was great to spend time with all the guys and girls and a big thanks to Norm and Megan for hosting. Saturday followed with a Sox game with the CEO of my company and his girlfriend. Sunday was pretty relaxing and we capped the night with dinner at Las Palmas with Wade and Kristin and Lodge and Ben and I. Ben headed to the Cubs game on Monday while I recovered from Margarita overload. Overall it was a nice weekend to relax and not worry about work or anything else.

Graduation!

It is official - Lucy graduated Dog School 101. I will post her diploma picture tomorrow.

Weekend Update with Katie Younger

Ben and I had a busy weekend - I'll give you the brief overview. Dinner with Ben's parents and his sister on Friday night to celebrate Mother's Day. Lucy's training class on Saturday afternoon followed by the Rita Hayworth Gala for the Alzheimers Association on Saturday night. Sunday followed with the scheduled Y-Me Race for a Cure to support breast cancer.

A busy weekend, but filled with family and good causes.

No Time

Yeah I know - I haven't been keeping up with the blog. I have been pretty busy at work trying to get through the last of my busy season jobs. I've finally starting to slow down a bit so hopefully I'll have more time to update everyone. For right now this is the quick and dirty update.
  • Lucy has been to two training classes and she is definitely not the worst dog in the bunch. What a relief!
  • Ben and I backed out of the San Diego Marathon. Too much work and not enough running. But we are still doing Chicago in October.
  • Still trying to figure out where to go on vacation - thinking Thailand or Bali.
  • Visited our friends Norm and Megan and their new chocolate lab puppy, Tootsie this weekend. She is adorable!
  • Going to a Sox game tomorrow with some friends at my old job. Should be fun to catch up with them.
  • Ben has started playing softball again.

More to come later.
