Day 2

of running with a partner. I like it. It makes the time go faster and we both encourage one another to finish.  Before you know it we will be all over the subdivision. However, for now, we will continue to make it around the block...well kind of a block...no matter how many times we go by and get strange looks from the neighbors....(uh...yes we have been by before...and yes we are still huffing and puffing). Ha!

Just a little over a month till the 5k! We have also partnered with our husbands and are cutting down on the eating....and it is 9:30 and I am hungry!  I must say it is nice to have someone who is going to hold me accountable...cause honestly...if I wasn't going to meet her (Jam) then I wouldn't be running in the evenings.  FOR SURE!

Ok..time to try and go to sleep my friends..here is to a peaceful night of sleep!

Sneak Peak

First..I know! Two posts from me in one day! LOVED running with my neighbor this evening! Made the time go so much faster! Now I just have to adjust my diet!!

After I returned home, I had a video message from Corporate office of Thirty-One. They shared with us all the new products that will be featured in the Holiday Gift Guide that comes out October 1st!  All I can say is wow! This company continues to amaze me! Not one thing did I not love! However, two specific items caught my eye...one being the new skirt with RUFFLES!!!!! (I LOVE RUFFLES...my heart melted!) and the new pattern for the big utility tote. Great for Christmas!

I normally just blog about my Thirty-One business here. But tonight...I just had to share a sneak peak picture of just a few of the items that are going to be featured in our 2010 Holiday Gift guide!

See why I am excited!!! No wonder we keep growing so fast! I LOVE THIRTY-ONE GIFTS! :) And I am now in the Holiday mood! lol! Good night!

Broken glass

This weekend was quite the weekend in our house for broken items. A vase came crashing down off our fireplace on Saturday morning...and broke into several thousand pieces...later on that morning...our glass cylinder with potpourri came tumbling down...and broke into a MILLION pieces..UGH! I have never cleaned up so much glass! We have fixed the problem and replaced both pieces, but boy was it frustrating!

Last night, Hubby's eye glasses broke. So I headed to the eye doctor after work to have them fixed. Thankfully, they were able to. Then just a few minutes ago while I was loading the dishwasher, I broke one of our wine glasses.

SERIOUSLY!?? Enough with breaking things around here!

I am wondering if I should stay home this evening instead of going running with my neighbor. Oh well...I will get out and see how it goes. ha!

We have signed up to be in a 5K next month. So time for me to get my butt in gear. Not sure how I feel yet about running with someone else, but figure it could be a good thing. She will keep me motivated to doing it every night.

I must admit I would rather sit here on the comfy sofa and eat some ice cream! I tell ya...me and the sweets lately....I must have gained 10 lbs over the weekend! Time to work it all off!

So..off to run I go. Hope you all had great weekends!

Sneezing

That is pretty much all I did  yesterday. Was SNEEZE! I couldn't stop.....I hda taken a Claritan before heading to the golf course with my Hub's...and it did not help! Talk about frustrating!  I just kept sneezing and blowing my nose. I hate to say this...but I am ready for it to FREEZE! I just can't hardly take being outside sometimes...even if it is so nice!

Today, I am happy to report that I am MUCH better! I ran to Walgreens before church and picked up some Zyrtec. I took one as soon as I got to church and now I can breathe!!!  And NO SNEEZING! You all are happy to know all this...right?

Ha!  So we are headed back out to the golf course in a few hours. Hoping I can enjoy the day a little more than I did yesterday!

We have nothing planned for this weekend. Just hanging out at home...love that it is a 3 day weekend! 

Hope you all are enjoying your weekends too!
