1/2 Marathon in 5 Days ...


In five days I’ll be participating in the Disney 1/2 Marathon. I think I am ready, the experts say that one must taper their workouts prior to big events like marathons and whatnot. I’ve got that covered, I started tapering one week after I started training. I’ll be walking the 13 miles not running it. I’m really looking forward to going to Disney. I haven’t been there since I went with James and his family back in high school.

I got some information from the marathon folks, one is the course map. And the other is that you can track a runners progress through the www.disneyworldmarathon.com website. I can also e-mail or page people with my race progress. I think I may be able to blog my progress too. And I’ll see about getting Tara and Erik and Beth and Missy to blog their progress too. So on Sunday January 9 between 6:00am and 9:30 (I have 3 1/2 hours to get it done) you can check here for updates. Hopefully it will work correctly.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
