I did it! I ran the half-marathon on Sunday and LOVED it!
I can’t tell you how much fun it was! And the people–there were sooooo many! It was weird after running for the last 8 months all by myself(which I love) to be surrounded by about 7,000 other runners. It was neat, inspiring, [...]
Hey, look at me! I’m writing a post! :-P It’s been ages I know and I miss it. But life has been crazy. Spring is always my crazy time. It’s baseball, baseball, baseball. Oh and wait…more baseball. And when I’m not doing baseball…I’m doing baseball! Blah!
Okay, you’re right, I’m not always doing baseball but I [...]
Right before school got out 10 brought this–
Mr. Cyclops, home. Cute ain’t he? :-) It is a potato with fuzzy ears and grass for hair. Remind you of those commercials? Cha, cha chia! I have absolutely no idea if that is how you spell it but…my kids were estactic over this little guy. :-) Then [...]
Okay, first as most of you might already know, I live in Iowa–northeast Iowa in what seems to be the only little island of land around which seems to not be flooding with 6 feet of water. I actually feel guilty even saying that. Everyone surrounding us is. We’ve been getting the severe storms, the [...]
Well, this morning I decided to try something new with my running–take the dog with me. Brilliant move I thought. A boost to my ego I thought. I mean, I’ve been training now for a couple of months. I’m in shape. And to be nice I decided to go easy on her–run for 30 minutes [...]
I thought I'd grow up to be a (single) career woman doing something in the wilds of places like Alaska. I like the middle of nowhere. :-) Oh and making oodles of cash of course. Too funny--how often do those 'ideas' actually pan out? LOL
So here I am, all grown up(maybe) :-) , a stay at home mom of three boys with a dog, a husband, neighbors and a mini-van trying to blend a bit of country life with small town city life. It's camping, gardening, cooking from scratch, fishing, with baseball games, water parks to tv dinners. :-) Add to that a love for running, photos, hunting, knitting, writing and reading--its a hectic life! But one I wouldn't change for the world.
Well, okay, I wouldn't mind if the hubby would let me add a chicken or two to the backyard. Oh and don't forget a couple of sheep--I could spin my own wool then for when I knit! Oh yeah, now that would be cool. :-) What’s that you say? There are ordinance’s against having live stock within city limits? Hmmm, maybe a privacy wall would work…
My 3 Musketeers!
