How or Why is it that EVERYTHING in life seems to contradict itself?

My cousin made the most sense of things:

I think I'm beginning to understand astronauts, an entire world away from everything....

Courage

It has taken me some time but I feel like I'm finally ready.

I am ready to believe in me.

I have a LOT to accomplish and a LOT to OFFER (it's exciting)!!!

Fun weekend-ROUGH Monday

We were GO-GO-GO all weekend long. From a late night at my brothers Friday night.... what a riot.... but Owie was happy to get an overnight out of it!!

Saturday morning Me and Keags spent some one on one at the Rec Center. We learned we have NO Basketball skills whats-so-EVER! Well.... mine were't too bad, LOL.

Back home and off to the Halloween party from there. Interesting night but fun. I was safely in bed by 12:50am.

Up at 7:30ish.... okay snoozed my alarm til 9:30, but we made it to church to see my little guy sing. From there ran out to the gym for some of my own mind and body work. I hung in there better than I thought I would considering the previous late night alocohol consumption. I did a little swimming. Ran 2mi down to a 9:00min pace.. I know thats YUCK but I don't remember the last time I ran it's been at least 3 mos or more. My sister showed up for my cool down and crunches work-out then we hit the weights. My arms are soooo sore. I had to cut it all off there because I was still so dehydrated.

Headed out to dads ordered some food and helped him the yard. Home by 6 to finish up laundry, clean the living room and bedrooms.... ugghh

My feet are KILLING ME.

That sums up the fun busy weekend.

And here it is, Monday with so much time for catch up, as the boss is out of town for the next 3 days. SO MUCH TO DO.. My "TO-DO" list is 2 pages long.

Having trouble focusing though.

Long time, No blog

WOW. I can't believe I haven't blogged since Septmember 2009.... well, yes I can. Things are going good. Really good I think. I've been feeling pretty lucky lately which is so rare for me.

The new Job is going sooooo good. I LOVE IT here, even if they're all out bar hopping at the moment without me (I'll catch them next time for sure).

My kids are finally getting over there 101 illnesses.
My big guy is having a yucky Colonoscopy next Friday.... I'm very nervous about it and he is terrified but the good thing is we will finally (hopefully) have some answers and clear our minds of the really bad things. I'm going to miss the scrapbooking weekend with my family and friends but I think I can live with that. j/k

I started running again!!! FINALLY. I haven't run since my surgery in November. I did four miles slow/fast intervals at the gym last weekend and plan to run tonight at the track (it should be cleared of snow by now).

I usually blog too long, ramble too much so I'm going to stick with those few things for now. But, all is well-going GREAT, I'm finally feeling that happy spark again and my kids seem to be shining!
