I registered for the Marathon!!! Watch out Chicago, here I come!!
I had been "procrastinating", I guess I just wasn't sure if I was going to do it. Life keeps getting in the way and sometimes I start to doubt myself.
But I am going to do this. By this time next year, I'll be telling everyone, "a year ago, I was training for my first marathon..."
So it is done!
Ready for bed, this is going to be a crazy week. Spent the day in Collins, got back in the office and got a call that Braden had a fever. Not exactly a fever if it's 99 F and he has been outside. Besides he is teething. I did managed to get some things done before I picked them up. Husband called that he had to work late. So I didn't get my walk done. Mad about that, but what can you do ? I knew the boys weren't up to being outside (mom can tell), the pollen is giving them a hard time.
So I guess I'll do my run tomorrow instead of XT. I have 2 meetings, and then Thursday and Friday mornings, I'm judging the MS Science and Engineering Fair at Jackson State. That should be fun, I'm looking forward to it

I WALK / RUN/ WOG BECAUSE
- I CAN!
- My personal best is just that: MINE
- I'll never know how far I can go unless I try
- There is no drug like adrenaline
- I hope my children will
- It takes all I've got, but it gives back more
- It's a good kind of sore
- It's my anti-depressant
- There are a lot worse addictions out there
- I need energy
- It makes me feel free
- I need an excuse to eat
- It makes the pavement feel needed
- I love not just the finish line, but the trip along the way
- stopping would hurt so much more than a blister or a broken toenail
Things I want to do in this lifetime
- Finish a marathon
- Learn to swim
- Learn to play golf
- Go Sky diving
- Travel to Spain and trace my ancestry
- Learn Italian
- Go to Italy
- Visit Egypt and Greece
- Visit Japan
- Teach
- Go to a Soccer World Cup Game
- Travel to all 50 US states
- Learn to ride a motorcycle
- Build a house in Panama
- Go to Law School

Yea, Kayra!
There's no way out now!
Well, I always say, "Hi" to you, but it's not the same as an introduction. So, I will have to just introduce myself. :)
Have fun at the Science/Engineering fair! My dad & father in law are engineers-in fact, my father in law has a PhD & teaches at JSU. My husband has the degree, too, but heard The Call to be a youth pastor.
YEAH!!!!!! We'll all be right there with ya! I'm getting very excited actually. Yes, let's walk together on Saturday. I want to talk to you about sharing a quad. I originally thought I would stay in a single so I could have a friend come up, but it's ~$1700. Then I decided to opt out of the group thing but Mark is encouraging me to do it 'cause that's the fun part. So now I'm thinking about it but worried about who I end up rooming with. I'd die if I got in a room with a snorer or someone who disrupted my precious sleep. Have you had any interest in your request for quad room mates? See ya Saturday!
