THIS was the faucet for the hose in the front if the house. Made a BIG WET MESS today. About a month ago, the exact same thing happened to the faucet in the back of the house. I'm glad I don't have more faucets. #bustedpipe #frozenlines #plumbingproblems #darntheluck #dejavu (at Fenton, Missouri)

Breaking 2:30 📷 This is not a pretty race photo. This is me with about 800m left to go in one of the most painful half marathons of my life. 🏃🏻I was right on target to finish at my goal pace until Mile 6 when I had to go to the bathroom.. 😱#darntheluck and it cost me over 2.5 minutes. 🔺Okay, okay, I know that doesn't seem like much but when you're already pushing your pace, to knock off another 30 seconds per mile is hard. 🙄But I did it.. I caught up to the pace goal by Mile 12 and afterwards I knew it was over because I still have my #sprinterkick. But miles 6 thru 12 were painful miles for me mentally and physically. 🔹I had the internal battle of "should I just give up?" 😫 "No Cari, you are not quitting now." 😡I got side cramps and had to walk some but somehow I found the inner fighter inside of me...inside all of us. 🔸By the way, I realize that 2 hours and 30 minutes for a #halfmarathon isn't that fast.. but it's all relative. A year ago I was running between a 2:55 and 3:05 half marathon so for me, this was a big threshold to cross. ▪️Pushing yourself isn't easy (and sometimes it isn't pretty). Sometimes you will meet your goal and other times you won't. But when you're able to dig deep and give it your all, each time it's easier to push through it... and that applies to so much more than distance running. #breaking230 (at Coney Island)

Twice on the same card where I was 1 number away from yelling "Bingo!"... and having to shake my booty in front of the crowd to earn my winnings. #whaaaaat #blacklightbingo #globingo #darntheluck #maybeidontwanttowin #imsoconfused (at Cathedral of Saint Peter (Belleville, Illinois))
