Blog changes

Thanks to everyone who followed Training Because I Can! over the last nine years. This blog started with Addison's Disease, hypothyroidism and a crazy idea of doing an Ironman distance triathlon. My life has changed and so has this blog. I am using this blog strictly for Addison's Support topics from here on out. I hope to continue providing people with hints for living life well with adrenal insufficiency.

You're going to kill someone

I believe this story was passed on to me by Steve Tursi, an ultra friend of mine.  This post is dedicated to my friend Bogie D who was hit by a car in Boulder in October.  His hip socket was broken from the impact.  He was riding a a bike.  He's an incredible athlete who has done some crazy, cool stuff. By the time this post comes out, he should be healed and back to running and biking.

Please take a minute and read this:

September 2013 in pictures

Judging from my September pictures, I was obsessed with birds at the center and not much else.  I will spare you most of the bird pictures.
Bunny in my yard.  There must not be a lot of pythons here.  We have a lot of bunnies

Parrot Outreach moved locations and this is our new one.  It's twice the size of the old one!

My first sighting of a parrot in the wild.  It's invasive.  It's a Quaker

This tiny frog scared the crap out of me at 5:45 am

Keiko decided my nose was not clean enough

I watched the sunrise on Fort Myers beach.  Here's a sand castle
