99 days and counting.....

Just registered for my second 1/2 marathon! Not gonna lie, the last one almost killed me. Literally. I'm being positive about the second one though since it's closer to my neck of the woods and hopefully the humidity won't be stiffling like it was in Lincoln. This one is also out in the country. Much more my speed. Cause while I love visiting Lincoln and being there for Husker games and all that excitement, I was less than impressed with the scenery for the 1/2 there. And way too many people. I'm hoping this one is alot smaller. Either way, it's redemption time. I just can't be satisfied with my performance the first time around. I'm going to kick this one's ass. Or at least not let it kick mine! :) And I solemnly swear to remember that it would be a smart choice to carry my inhaler along.

Although I know most won't really give a shit how I'm doing with my training, I'm going to let you come along with me for the next 99 days and see how I'm progressing. It will hopefully keep me on track training. Cause I don't want anyone to think I'm half assing it. :)

Here goes nothing!!

And the award goes toooo................

ME!!! I did it. I finally feel like maybe I could win that Mother Of The Year award. You know, the one I have failed miserably at for 8 years so far. I'm really feeling like the last 2 days have earned me that title. I'm sure I'll do something to f%@& that up soon enough, but for now I'm celebrating my ass off. I painted Knight's room like I promised him and I do have to say. It's freakin awesome. I really love it so much I contemplated painting the whole damn thing camo. I mean really. What else do I have to do with my days. Right?? Wrong!! It's pretty bad ass though. If Knight doesn't like it then I'm going to sleep here. :) I love it. I got the tank for the wall. Thought it was going to be bigger but it works. The helicopter for his ceiling should be here soon! I had a ton of fun doing this project. And if he doesn't like it, I'm selling him. :) ...

It's MY Party!!!!

Actually, I'm too old for parties so now I have to settle for the following: Me telling my kids that it was my birthday this morning because Wade forgot. And then reminding them that it's MY day and they should be extra good. Me making Kohl and my nephew tell me Happy Birthday every time they needed something today. And singing too. :) My mom calling me at lunch when Wade was in here which jarred his memory real quick like. I will continue the day with making my kids wait on me all evening. Ahhhhhh....I love MY DAY. I also treated myself to some new trail running shoes. It's the right thing to do.

Whoooop Whooop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...........

Today marks a great day in 2011!!! College football bowl games start! I LOVE college football. I LOVE the Huskers!!!!!!! But I also love watching random teams that I know nothing about. Doesn't matter where they are from or what their story is. I just love watching football. So, from now until the first week in January, I can pretty much watch football any given day! It's awesome!!! Last year we went to every home Husker game. Love it there. The atmosphere is great, walking amongst the drunken tailgaters is hilarious, and the general excitement in the stadium is electrifying. We've taken the kids to 2 games so far. I'm not going to lie. It's exhausting. First, it's quite a walk to the stadium. So, as you can imagine, eventually the 5 year old wants someone to carry him. He's not a small kid. In fact, he weighs as much as the 7 year old. He's solid as a brick shit house and com...

Permanently Exhausted
