a FIRST for me...


i am so excited for Saturday to get here.

i am running my first race EVER!!

it's a 5k race and i'm really looking forward to it :o)

i'm not doing this race to win or to get a certain time.
i'm purely doing it for fun.
i hear that once you run a race...you get addicted!!
not a bad thing to be addicted to at all!!

i hope to get someone to take some pictures of us running...

so, wish me luck :o)

books, running, oh my!!!

yeah, i know its a lame title but, i couldn't think of anything! ha!


a couple of days ago i wrote about
wanting to read more in 2011.

i love to read and i really should make more time for it.
i find when i have book that keeps me interested i watch less t.v. =)

a blog friend, BlueEyedBride, posted about her reading list last year and a couple of the books
caught my eye.

1. James Patterson's Swimsuit




2. Kristin Hannah's Firefly Lane




Saturday night I started Swimsuit and i'm already hooked and already a third of the way through it!! It is so good. It's different than any thing i've ever read.
it's suspenseful and i love it.

my goals for 2011 are to read 2 books a month.
to me this seems very attainable.

one of my favorite things is curling up on the couch or in my favorite chair with a cup of coffee and reading a book.

another thing id like to achieve in 2011 is to lose about 15 lbs.
some may say i don't need to lose that much...
some might say i do. ha.
i definitely I DO!!!

i love to run.
love. it.
it is a great stress reliever.

but, for some reason i'm not dropping the weight.
very frustrating.
i eat a pretty clean diet.
maybe i'm eating too many carbs at night, who knows?

if you have any tips, advice, etc. i'm all ears.

in other news, elijah started back to school today.
i'm gonna miss him during the day but, i'm glad to be back in a routine =)

he was excited to go after some coercing and comforting.
i think he was more thrilled that he got to wear his new backpack.
i got it for a steal on PB Kids!!!

i was going to go to the gym this a.m. but, john daniel has a cough that just won't quit!!!

so, i'm gonna hit up hobby lobby to look for some great deals!!!
