I took up running to lose the excess weight and I got hooked on the endorphin rush of running. Having success losing the extra weight didn't hurt either. I've had some tough times along the way with an over-scheduled calendar and a variety of injuries mostly … (0 comments)

My reaction (muttered under my breath to myself) to this question is usually a thought about my valued time being wasted by another "tire-kicker" home seller.

In my local precinct, I … (0 comments)
