Thursdays Three

1. As of Wednesday night, both kids were still feverish with non productive coughing. Which meant that Wednesday (my day off) was another day home with both kids cooped up in the house.  AAAaack.  Rance stayed home with them on Tuesday while I went to work.  I am wondering if the kids didn't catch some strain of influenza.  Seems to be going around, nearly everyone I talk to has sick kids.

This of course also meant that my run was full of loops again.  At least it was a very awesome 45 degrees outside when I was running in my SHORTS and TSHIRT. I had intervals on the books for yesterdays run so instead of trying to do it mostly on the crazy loop thingy, I did the quarter mile intervals down to the mailbox and back. and did the recovery portions as well as the warm up and cool down on the loop.

It is supposed to dump snow starting today so I was very glad to get in another great run this week before the snow.

2. Leap Fitness' Top 100 Health and Fitness Bloggers of 2013.  I discovered a lot of other fun and informative blogs on the list as well.  Fun to make someone's list of awesome like that.  If you want you can check out their list here and vote for the ones you love.


I don't know that I deserve to win because there are some super awesome blogs on the list but a few votes would be fun. They also have a disagree button which I am not sure about, seems like more people are voting others down than just voting for people. 

Kind of seems more like a not very nice button to me. If you disagree just don't vote for them? A lot of people have more disagree votes than agree votes.  makes me want to boycott the whole thing. 

3. Last day to enter my Active D'Lites giveaway and odds are pretty good for winning right now.  Seriously if you like chocolate go enter.

What do you think about the disagree button.  Seems mean to me.  I refuse to hit it.

  1. Voted for you! Ugh I hate the disagree button, so horrible! Why would they put that there and why would someone click on it. You're right, if you don't like it, don't vote. Hope your kiddos feel better:)

  3. Giving the thumbs down is stupid. I can't believe how many people have voted down either. Lame. Spread the positive people.

  4. It looks like some people just went down the line and voted thumbs down on everyone! Dislike the dislike button! Voted for you :)

    Shorts in 45 degrees?? I am such a California wimp! That's cold to me.

  5. the disagree button is about as bad as that 'get off my internet' website.

    Way to get in the run before snow dump, I think I would cry if we had a snow dump right now.

  6. I am going to vote for you right now. I don't agree with having a disagree button either. I think it is an awful idea!

    Sorry your kiddos are still sick. I hope that they feel better soon!

  8. Sorry you have kids down with the crud! No fun at all.

    I have yet to go to that site, but now I am intrigued. I need to see how many disagree votes I have! : o

  10. A Disagree button? That's not cool. Not cool at all.

    And, more importantly, I hope your kids feel better soon!

  11. I voted for the 3 blogs I read on the list--yours, miss zippy, suar and then I voted for the two in last place because of all the negative votes. that's just mean.

  12. Ugh- sorry your kids are still sick! Another fantastic job getting your run in, though.
    I find it very strange that they have a disagree button. It just doesn't make sense to me- I feel like that messes with the spirit of health and fitness blogging. It should be uplifting and positive (in general- obviously it all can't be positive). Can't imagine clicking disagree.

  13. Voted and I disagree with the disagree button!!! I saw it last night, and almost just left without voting! I actually voted for one person who had more dislikes than likes, just because I felt sorry for them!!

  15. Congrats on your nomination! And yes, the "disagree" button is just plain mean.

  16. I saw that DISAGREE button too and was quite surprised by it. I wouldn't use it. The whole thing seems very negative to me. Anyway, I shall vote thumbs up for YOU!
