Hello All - its has been a long while!

Hi there. Sorry for the absence but sometimes I get so tired of logging onto the internet and sitting endlessly for hours searching crap. It an addiction I think. I feel guilty when Im searching and Rhy is left alone. So I try to wait until shes asleep or at school.
With that said I have had no free time. Im so busy with UNM class, preschool volunteer work, soccer preparations, housework, and rhy things!!! So any free time I have I try to sleep. Im in bed with her by 9pm. Can you believe it. Am I gettin' old?

Ive up'd my distance to 3.2 miles now! Whew! I havent run that since High school and wasnt sure if I could endure that haul. But I did it.... in 43 minutes the first time and 39 mins the second. My one mile pace is about....12 to 14 minutes. Depending on how yucky I feel on any given day. So Im happy to say that all the weights Ive been lifting has paid off. I can run without back pain and my legs sure help me out when I feel like stopping and walking!

Gotta keep up the hard work.

Its getting really chilly here in the mornings and my floors are cold throughout the day. We dont have radiant heating in the tiled areas ... so come winter time we live in an ice box. Burrr!

One more soccer practice and one more game. yea! Then I dont have to worry about soccer until next year. Downside, I have to gather all the equipment for returning and plan an end of the season soccer party. UGh! I have to draft a letter of appreciation to the volunteer asst coach and certificates of completion or achievement for my lil players. Not quite sure what it is I'll do. Have any ideas???

Fire season for DC is officially over! Yea! Looking forward to enjoying my hubby for the holidays. As for Hurricane Gustav, well you know it downgraded to a tropical storm as well as the other two that followed. So DC was staged out in Texas for several days and eventually sent home.

We were happy to have him home. Can you believe it! This season was the longest our lil family has endured. May 7th to Sept 12th! I think we have three more years of this and then he'll settle down. Well thats what he promises. Whom I kidding - it may never slow - not till he retires. Hes a firechaser at heart! UGh!
