Happy Thursday Peeps!!Well this SPRING BREAK has been awesome, and well deserved. Upon our completion of the 5k last weekend, I've taken a week off from exercise, to jolt the body and trick it - and I gotta tell you my mind is saying, "Come on already, lets get this exercise thing on!" But, I know from experience that I need this break, and will be back on full force on Monday. While I'm enjoying the 70 degree weather here on the shore ...D1W11C3 - Week 11 ALREADY?!?!
Monday WEEK 11!! Amazing how when time is spent in a positive authentic way it passes by so quickly! This morning was a rough wake up for me. Today I got up (no exercise) and am taking it easy. My OA is active (Osteoarthritis) due to the heavy rains and poor weather in our area for the past four days. My neck is pretty inflamed, and we're icing/ben gay'n/and motrin to decrease the discomfort. Just a bump in the road, but not a boulder, or a sidel...D7W10C3 - My Dallas Experience (From Afar)
Good Sunday Morning to Everyone!!What a beautiful way to start off my day with a phone call from a dear friend StarJumps Diane, Stoney and crew. Then a text message from my angel, KatyK.

I wanted to share with you my angel at the start of this morning's...D6W10C3 - 5k COMPLETED (and IN THE RAIN!!)

Good Morning Everyone - Yesterday was an awesome day filled with sunshine here on the East Coast. I ran 2 miles and kicked butt, this morning I woke up and made the concious decision to 'rest' my body. With the upcoming 5k on saturday I don't want to injure myself - but BOY DOES IT FEEL GOOD TO BE SORE!! Seriously :)As for the OrgChem exam, no nice way to put it - I bombed it BIG TIME. When I got back home on Monday evening I sat down with hubby ...D4W10C3 - Run & LBWO

Happy Sunday Everyone!!Well, yesterday was a free day, and I did rest, and eat clean up until the movies. My husband treated us to a movie, The Lightening Thief.

It's official, Mark, me, and Jack (8yr old) have signed up for the St. Patty's Day 5k on March 13th, 2010 @ 10am. My older two will be doing their sports camps, and Celie didn't want to do it. She said, and I quote, "Mommy, I am 6years old, and I don't feel it is necessary for me to run with you because my legs are much much much shorter than yours. I'll save it for next year when I've gained an inch or two." ::sigh:: Welcome to my worl...3.1.2010 <- March - YES: WIN!! Attitude of Gratitude

Amazing Sunday to Everyone!!!!!!Wow - What a powerful week of insight, reconcillation (w/thyself), and openess to opportunity! After my Organic Chem Lab on Friday evening I talked with two of my fellow classmates (they call me 'mom' ::sigh::).
