Daddy's Back

I'm back. (Or so I hope.)

I was --> <-- this close to saying, well, the blog is suspended until further notice. Then I started perusing my Google Reader, and I saw this post by Cindy, and I said to myself "That's not a bad idea. Let's call it a hiatus, and move on."

I enjoyed blogging, and I enjoy the friendships I've made while blogging. There's no reason to throw that out.

So, I figure that my old posting habits aren't going to stand up to my schedule right now.. so, I'll post when I can, hopefully twice a week or so like that. I probably won't be around to all of your blogs every day, but I will be around. I've lurked a little bit on everyone's blogs, but I have been out of the loop for a lot of things.

As far as what I'm going to write about, it's almost a new slate. My running has gone down to, well, zero. Let's be honest here. Zero. I have rode my bike on a trainer, oh, maybe 4 times this winter. That's an honest 4, at least. Of course, by not altering my dietary intake, but changing the exercise output, I've put on a few pounds over the last few months. Cruel, but predictable.

I want to get back to running. I've got the schedule crunch going, so I'm hoping to get 2 runs a week in starting at some point in the near future. I need to do some strength/flexibility training, as my legs just hurt any more, and need to become more limber.

I have started walking at lunchtime, though. A good 5K walk with some solid hills and the like. Hey, it's a start.

Future posts may be about running, perhaps a few on child raising and the mis-adventures thereof. I've started doing some cooking, maybe some thoughts on that.

So, here's to the end of a hiatus, and a new beginning. Keep on rockin'.

well it's about time. I too, have fallen off of the regular posting bandwagon and have been reduced to about once a week. But I've come to accept that. just like you will soon come to accept the latent homosexual undertones of these posts.

Welcome back, Raul! Hope the warmer summer months can put some spring back in your walking/running step!

Yeah, maybe it was a mistake to return because I see Carolina Cletus is projecting and hitting on you already. That would scare me away for good.

It's a good thing your last name is "gonemobile" because a moving target will be harder for him to sodomize.

Felicitations on your return. (<--I was determined to be the only commenter not to use the words "welcome" or "back". D'oh! Just used them! Does it count if they're in quotation marks?)
