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, [...]
This is the conversation I had the other day while out on my run–phone rings…
me: “Hello?”
middle son: “Mom, where are you?”
me: huff, puff…“Running, you know that.”
middle: “Star Wars isn’t on.”
me(you have got to be kidding me): “Um…huff, puff…okay…?”
middle: “Well, 4 wants to watch it.”
me(really huffing and puffing cause you see, I’m no good at talking [...]
Ugh, even coming up with a title was hard today! I’m a bit sore and slow in the ‘thinking’ department today. (no comments on this please) :-) You’d think I’d ran the full 20 miles I was supposed to have run! I did run the furthest I’ve gone yet, so I’m really happy about that, [...]
“Oh yeah, mean, vicious, capable of tearing you limb from limb.”
“What? You were talking about me? I thought you were talking about her…”
A while ago…okay, a long while ago, Katherine from over at the Harelquin boards suggested I get a Halti after this post. Three days later I did. This is the [...]
Yep, I got a laptop!
Okay, so yes, I did technically get it three weeks ago but life has been crazy! Getting my posts up hasn’t been happening. (warning: you are getting a few posts like this over the next few days. )
This photo was taken the next morning after I got it. [...]
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!
