(Nearly) Wordless Wednesday: “I’m your sub today…”

“YAY!”

It’s hilarious how many kids actually do a visible fist pump when they walk in I tell them I’m their sub today!  Cracks me up every time! ;)

Woopsie Daisy…

Well… Didn’t quite work out this weekend, I was too exhausted and after doing all my house chores and homework on Saturday I just felt like coming home after church and being lazy, laying in bed watching TV on Sunday!

I did make up for it with a treadmill run that started out at a speed of 5.7 (remember getting BACK into shape so starting out slow, bleh!) and ending my 2 miles out at a speed of 7.2 for a very SHORT amount of time lol)… Some days I just can’t stand running inside and today was one of those days… it was in the 50’s! After a whole week of starting the day out with negative temps due to wind chill, that’s just heavenly! ;)  BUT, I needed to make it a quick run after work so I could finish some reading and homework for tomorrow’s class, so treadmill it was! 

I just wanted to write a quick post to keep you all up to date on my lame and seldom workouts ;)  I do have to say though, that I am doing a much better job of fitting in at least 1-2 runs every week even though I’m still just as busy with work, school, homework, and an internship… whew!  *here’s to running at least 1 mile every month!* ;)  I should probably raise my standards and make my goal “at least 2 miles every week*

Just an FYI:  My computer’s network card has died… so I haven’t been on the internet as often as I’d like as it’s way to inconvenient now.  Plus, I have no idea how to fix the problem without spending money for the part and money for someone to fix it for me, so fixing the problem is going to have to wait and that means once again, I am not as involved in the blogosphere as I’d like to be :(

I’m off to bed, I have a 13 hour long day tomorrow with my internship,
class, and driving time…  DON’T FORGET to sign up for the

2013 Valentine’s Day Card Swap

WILL YOU BE MY VALENTINE?!

Welcome to the 2nd Annual Valentine’s Day Card Swap!! :)  This will be setup like the Christmas Card Swap so, Depending on how many people sign up, I will divide you all into groups of about 5 or more people.  You will send a Valentine’s card to all the people in your group, and will be receiving cards from the people in your group.  Let’s say you are put in a group with X,Y,Z…  You will send cards to X, Y, and Z and will receive a card from X, Y, and Z.  Make sense?!

Your cards can be store bought or handmade and you can feel free to add a little something to the card like your favorite running quote, running advice, candy, a sticker, a note of encouragement, recipe, or a funny note, or you can just send the card… Whatever you want to do is PERFECT!  Just don’t be sending pairs of running shoes, an Ipod, or a free entry to Boston (unless you’re sending it to me)  ;)  We want to keep this cheap so everyone can join and doesn’t feel bad for just sending a card!   :)

After everyone is put into their groups I will be sending out an email including your group members ONLY with their blog links (so you can get to know them if you don’t already) and addresses so that there’s still a bit of privacy and everyone’s addresses aren’t out there floating around on the internet somewhere!  Safety people!!  :D   The groups will be picked by Random.org so we keep things mixed up!

I will be adding people to a list at the bottom of this page as they sign up…  So, if you sign up and for some reason, do not see your name on the list after a couple days… just shoot me an email and we’ll get it taken care of!

If you can think of anything that I may have left out, let me know!  Let’s get this PARTY STARTED!!!  You are welcome to invite your friends!  All are welcome! :)  Feel free to put the logo on your blog and link it back to this page as an invite to other bloggers! AND YES, international bloggers are welcome to join as well as those without blogs… Dailymilers, Facebookers, or Twitterers can join too!!! ;)
