https://runninggritsandhissyfits.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. Tuesday, December 30, 2014. It is just after midnight and officially New Year's Eve- that time of year when our thoughts turn to New Year's Resolutions- a time to look at our lives and to make a pledge to ourselves to end those bad habits or patterns of behavior that may be affecting us negatively, and/or keeping us from living our lives to the fullest! A time to think of some positive actions for the coming year that have the potential to improve our lives in some way! The ol...

Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. Friday, April 24, 2015. MUST FOCUS ON STRESS RELIEF! Although life in the Robbins household has been pretty stressful for a long time now, it seems that over the past few months, the stress has increased exponentially! February 4- My 48 y/o nephew had a heart attack. February 22- My husband had a heart attack and surgery. April 5- My sister had a heart attack. Those were of course the really serious, terrifying and life-changing events for all involved! After MANY hours on the...

https://runninggritsandhissyfits.blogspot.com/p/eating.html
Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. The fall and winter seasons, combined with the upcoming holidays, mean the re-emergence of those comfort foods that we all love anytime, but especially during the COLD months! Nothing say's comfort to this old Southern gal, quite like a yummy bowl of grits! Also on the list of great Southern comfort foods- mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and of course, biscuits! Some things to remember to make comfort foods a little less fattening. Stay away from heavy sauces. This i...

https://runninggritsandhissyfits.blogspot.com/2015/05/2015-nyc-marathon-training-plan.html
Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. Sunday, May 17, 2015. 2015 NYC MARATHON TRAINING PLAN. My training plan for the TCS NYC Marathon 2015! Although this will not be my first rodeo (um, I mean.marathon! I feel very strongly that I should be very conservative with my training plan. Finding the proper amount of training that my body can handle to get me to the starting line in NYC- injury free and feeling ready to ROCK the marathon- can present quite a challenge! Guess my hat say's it all- Marathon Freak! I just ha...

Running, Grits and Hissy Fits!: March 2015
https://runninggritsandhissyfits.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. Thursday, March 26, 2015. Crazy or Not- Here I Come- NYC Marathon! Many of my friends have inquired as to whether I still plan on running the NYC Marathon this year in light of Ray's recent heart attack and upcoming surgery. After Ray came home from the hospital, I did give some thought to cancelling my plans to run. After all, the future seemed so uncertain for so many reasons.Ray's health, our financial situation, etc. However, crazy or not. I really feel that I MUST do this!

Running, Grits and Hissy Fits!: January 2015
https://runninggritsandhissyfits.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. Sunday, January 25, 2015. Winter running can be a challenge- even for those of us living in the Southern part of the the USA! I'm a born and bred Georgia gal who spent many a hot summer day in Atlanta, struggling with how to survive running in the sweltering summer heat! I can't remember EVER worrying about keeping WARM on a run.Mainly because I never actually felt the need to RUN in the cold! Seriously.I NEVER ran in the cold while living in GA! AND THEN WE MOVED TO MINNESOTA!

https://runninggritsandhissyfits.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. Friday, November 7, 2014. On Tuesday, I saw a physical therapist for the first time in my life! I am so happy that I decided to be pro-active with my arthritis- -FINALLY! I will try to give the short version here of what is going on. First of all, I first saw an orthopedic doctor for my knee problems- WAY back in 1999. I was told that I had quite a bit of arthritis in my right knee at that time. I was ALSO called, "An old used car with very limited mileage left! Over the years...

Running, Grits and Hissy Fits!: Hissy Fits
https://runninggritsandhissyfits.blogspot.com/p/praying.html
Hole in the Wall Gang Camp. A sudden outburst of temper. Often used to describe female anger at something trivial. A hysterical rant or tantrum, particularly at odds with the gravity of the situation. Often involves stamping of feet. Whining and loud obnoxious screaming and/or swearing! Ex Pam has been known to pitch a hissy fit when unable to run due to injury, illness or weather conditions! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). FAVORITE QUOTE FROM ONE OF MY HEROES. Paul L. Newman.
