Yea! MONDAY

It has come to my attention that doing it all isn't always gonna look pretty.

I constantly seek balance in my life.

Slicing up the right size of pieces of time for all the components in my life that need it

--my walk with the Lord, my family, our homeschool, my business, my friends & myself.

And it is so easy for things to go awry.

I think I ran out of time last week.

The pie wasn't quite big enough. And the results aren't so pretty.

I wasn't in the Word enough, didn't run enough, grade enough papers, blah, blah, blah.

Thank You, Lord, for Mondays!

When the slate of last week can be wiped clean & we can start over!!

Superhero friends, enjoy Monday for all the potential it holds!

For all we know, this could be the best week ever!

Day Three and I haven't quit yet!

3 days into 30 weeks of training for my first marathon.

I've logged 4.5 miles. No actual running yet, just very brisk walking.

Baby steps....but steps, nonetheless.

Superhero friends, I'm back on track!!!

Yea!!

The Resurrection of a Superhero

Okay...I didn't really die.

I was just distracted.

And a little off course.

For over 2 years!!!

But I'm back!! Due in large part to many of you (all 3 of you, actually) who read this blog back in '05, encourage me in my daily life, and know that I really need the accountability that (strangely enough) a blog provides.

I AM TRAINING FOR A MARATHON! There...I said it. I started a 30 week Hal Higdon Training Program today. The best part...today was REST!!! I love a training program that starts with rest!!

In the time I've been off the public blogging forum alot has happened. So in the next few days & weeks, I'll try to catch you up on that, too.

Superhero friends, it's not too late to join me in training for the Country Music Marathon. Put on your shoes! Let's go!

On a break

An indefinate blogging break....I'll be back....just don't know when.

Summer Time!!! Yea!!!

Superhero friends,

I really can't believe that it's been a month since I've last entered anything on my blog!

The month of May has flown by.

I know I can't remember everything that has happened. But here are some highlights...

Between the 2 older boys -- they played/ we watched 40 baseball games! Ugh!

I'm finishing up my 1st quarter with The Pampered Chef with over $10,000 in sales.

I dropped out of a bootcamp class for the 1st time ever.

Superspouse bought me a convertible for Mother's Day!!!

I went to Atlanta for a 3 day conference at Northpoint Community Church that was amazing.

We hosted a Wedding Shower for 2 great friends who will be getting married in August.

Superspouse & I each got to go on end of the year field trips with superkiddos.

(The best part of that sentence is 'end of the year'!)

But the best part of the last month was definitely Friday, May 26th --

THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!

It is officially SUMMERTIME and I am excited. Lazy days without a whole lot of purpose.

Endless hours splashing at the pool.

Lots of grilling out. Summer camps. Lightening Bugs.

Lots of peanut butter sandwiches and watermelon.

So that's it in a nutshell. I really will attempt to post more frequently. And put some pics up of the new car. Let me know what's going on in your superhero lives, too. Summer time!! Yea!!!

Look at us!! We're on TV!!

It is here!

Okay, superhero friends, today is the big day. 'Thong & I are leaving for Nashvegas in about 2 hours. I am so excited about getting away for two days, dining at great restaurants, meeting fellow runners, and getting massages. We are also going to hear John Bingham speak today -- that should be good. And running my 3rd Half Marathon. Thanks to everyone for their well wishes & prayers. I'll recap on Monday.
