In this house, we are fans of trying to be as non-reliant on chemicals as we can be, but let’s be honest – with 6 humans, 2 fur babies, and the occassional frogs, cave crickets, and snails inhabiting our rooms, sometimes we do need to clean with more than water and our elbow grease. We need cleaners ready to tackle these messes, so we’re armed with two stain fighters (Biz and KidsNPets) that help speed up the stain fighting process.

In my grandparents’ home in Wilmerding, I remember that it was right in the middle of the floor, but at some point my Pap had put walls up and a shower curtain (I think, or at least that is what I want to remember). In our home in Tarentum, it sat on a pedestal of cement, a true gem of a throne where if you used it (we did not because it was disgusting), you were wide in the open to the hair salon station that also graced that basement (not a Pittsburgh thing). And nearby to our current home, my parents’ Ford City house had one along one of the basement walls – right out in the open, too. The Happy Ending for our Pittsburgh Potty Thankfully, plumbing in Pittsburgh has come a long way and we were able to cement up that nasty situation and get the bathroom of my dreams, but you’ll have to keep an eye out on my lifestyle blog to find out exactly how that ended up.

Peloton 10 min warm-up walk + 30 min walk and run + I did the walk/run at a much faster pace than the previous week, but I was losing salt very quickly. I like to do two strength workouts during the week, but I will also focus on some upper body stuff and my core workouts. My focus for this week: more strength workouts, getting more quality sleep, and continuing building my weekly mileage with more bits of running.

Garmin Training Load and Polar Cardio Load are designed to help runners prevent over training and take in to account their sleep recovery, but should they really be guiding you? Training load is usually looking at the impact of a single workout and with all the technology in GPS watches it now takes in to account HR , VO2 Max, sleep and the type of workout to determine the load, which then goes in to calculating the overall training status your watch displays. Cardio Load Status uses your average daily load from the past 28 days Let’s breakdown the Garmin Training Statuses. Suunto watches give you a number of scores from sleep quality to fitness level (VO2 Max), but don’t give the same training load daily updates.
