17:40

That is the amount of time, that it takes me, to run/walk a mile. Sound good? NO! OH my. Endurance has never been my strong suit. I am going to overcome that though. I can already jog for 2 min. When before getting to sixty seconds about killed me. I want to be doing a mile in under 15:00 before the end of this month. I think that is doable. I hope it is!

What made me decide to hop back on track, or at least take a step forward? My pants are getting too tight! My BIG pants! I am NOT I repeat NOT going to buy a larger size of jean. So my only other choice is to lose this weight! Smaller pants, I am all up for buying ;O)

What else? I want to run a 5K. I wanted to run one before, but I was not ready and it rained the day of the 5K and I was afraid to do it alone. This time, I will have a friend, and I am starting to prepare now, and I can do it!!! I have to do it, or else what will I wear? Sweatpants? Pajama bottoms?

Kids. Ahhhh. My kids. Today was one of those not so bad days. Kitty had a vet exam, got shots, and now he's pissy :OP The kids however, got along, pretty well, most of the afternoon. Hannah drew a picture, of herself, "watering her plants" With flowers and a rainbow. I think its so cute, how little girls all draw pictures of their world filled with butterflies fairy's and rainbows... oh yes and eyelashes :) I wish I could see the world through their eyes again.

Destiny starts school tomorrow. "real" school. A "public" school. A BIG school. She said " a little" When I asked if she was nervous.... Truth be told I am scared to death. A big school means I do not know everyone, more bullies, more preps, more well just more of all that bad stuff! It also means a big cafeteria, lunch I do not have to pack, a choir room the size of half the school she used to go to. Like all things there are good and bad.

A cop, roams the halls of the school all day. I guess this is supposed to put most parents and ease, but it scares the living shit out of me. In my day, which was NOT long ago BTW. Cops were not in the schools. Neither were guns, or not that I was aware of... But then I seen butterflies and rainbows back then didn't I?

Ahh a fresh new week.

It is Monday. Daylight savings gave me this extra hour of sleep and a bright sunny morning to wake up to. The weekend is behind me now along with that UNGODLY busy week. My best friend is home from her camping trip, I have learned how to use, and LOVE my new phone... All feels right with the world!  Over the weekend Destiny was gone. It was kind of quiet around here, but Promise made sure to make up for the crankiness and teenager (esq) that might be lacking in the household. Thank you Promise. Your just too kind.  Rooster boy came and stayed the night. Not sure why but my son always has these strange thoughts he thinks are good ideas when rooster boy stays... Not saying its rooster boy, my son even admitted it was his own idea, I just think when boys get together, they lose all ability to ration out what is a good and what is a bad idea.  So what was the bright idea this weekend? To "splatter paint" A bowling pin . I guess I should be happy, that at least ...

So Whats up with my oddly normal life?

 Huh huh? Cus it seems that I am never ever updating my blog these days. I am such a sloth!  Things happen and I think how I should blog about them and then I figure they are not really so interesting if you were not here. Then I remember I blog for me, not really for someone else. I want to be able to remember things, to come back and go oh yeah... Those were the days. Or whatever. I can't do that if I don't blog it.  I am going to try to be more regular with the blogs again, even if its what I made for dinner, and  how my husband kept me up snoring. If it doesn't interest you, you don't have to read it right!? :)  So whats been going on? the kids are growing. I got contacts, I am not sure how I feel about them just yet. Sometimes they are great, and sometimes I feel like I have an eye full of hair. Sometimes I can see great with them in, and other times everything is blurrier than when I had  them out. Meanwhile I wear my scratched up glasses while ...

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)
