March 2014 in pictures

March 2014 was a busy month.  I won't bore you with details.  Birds, trip to NJ and Route 40 Romp.

This little, wild bird and his girlfriend were adopted this month.  Charlie has an amazing capacity to escape his cage.

I love church signs.

I'm stunned that anyone would get a tattoo that looks like a giant penis on his leg.

Bob took me flying again.  This is Sanibel, Florida.

I have a jog stroller so that I can eventually run something really long self supported.  On this day, I took my bird for a walk.  He didn't like it.

We went to NJ for a wedding.  The church was beautiful.  God didn't strike me dead!

My sister-in-law's dog, Lola.  Lola's ears get in her food so they get pulled back for meal time.

I worked a trade show in Orlando.  During my break, I did my mile.  First time I've done my mile in pearls.

This was a hardware trade show, not a XXX trade show.  Get your minds out of the gutter.  This is foam to fill cracks in walls!

Random stuff...LOST Relay...birds

Funny!

Bob, my friend and mentor, took me flying.

My bird was very hungry.

During an early morning run, I had the privilege of seeing Manta Rays in the Peace River.  So graceful and so beautiful.

LOST Relay

Lake Okeechobee Scenic Trail 118 miles but I only did half

I changed up meds and had great success.  Success=feel good, stay up all night without falling asleep, no nausea.  Scott and I ran around Lake Okeechobee

Me actually running during the LOST Relay.

Scott, my relay partner, looking bad ass.

Sue Anger is amazing.  She organizes volunteers for lots of Florida races.  She's really good at it too.

It got cold during the LOST race.  

I amused myself by wearing this outfit to the finish.  

This was on the bike path during the LOST race.  It cracked me up.

BIRDS

CC, a moluccan cockatoo, the sweetest bird you can imagine.

I braved getting Sam out and as I walked by, he repaid me by sneak biting me

One of our Super Star volunteers and Schmutzy, a Quaker.

My bird, Keiko

We have had Keiko for a year now.  He is a Senegal parrot.  He's about 9" long.  Does he talk?  Yes, a little and when HE wants to.  He makes lots of cute noises.  He is 15 years old.

I attempt to refrain from posting pictures of him and writing about him because I don't want to bore everyone.  Below, I will bore you with my baby.  I adore him.  He adores me.  I was sick last weekend and he stayed by my side the entire time.  When I slept, he slept.  When I was awake, he was awake.  What a good bird!

I totally mess with him.

After a bath.

Attacking the rag

Nap time.

He likes a cave, under my desk.

I love seeing him sleep.

He goes WILD over pens.
