30 Days of Thanks Catch up! :)

So I was unaware of how far behind I had become! Time to play catch up again! They will all be short, sweet, and to the point! :)

Day 9: I am thankful for my bestie Crissy! She has been like a sister to me for the past 9 years! I miss her a lot now that I moved away. We barely even have time to talk on the phone! I miss our Target dates. :) I am so glad she has been part of my life. I don't know where I would be without her! :)

Day 10: I am thankful for my little brother (Who is actually 6'2ish, so not so little haha). He is an amazing guitar player. He is written his own songs and you can listen to them Here. He is also in a band called The Hollow Empire. I am so proud of everything he does. He graduated from Texas A&M with an Electrical Engineering degree, which shows you how incredibly smart he is. I am so glad that I was able to move closer to him and spend more time with him! :)

Day 11: I am thankful for my sister-n-law! I couldn't have asked for a better one! Her hubby is pretty cool too haha. :) I don't get to see them very often, but I am honored to call her family! I'm hoping one day she and her hubby will  move closer to us! We are working on it! :)

Day 12: I am thankful for beautiful fall days. Where it's in the 50's outside and we can have all our windows open and enjoy the fresh air! I love my tree I have outside my patio window! :)

Day 13: I am thankful for PUMPKIN! I may not have been able to carve it for Halloween...
But at least I was able to get some yummy pumpkin seeds from it!
Thanks to my mom for bringing me the pumpkin as a housewarming gift! :)

Day 14: I am thankful for rest. I have been able to "rest" for the past 3 weeks as I was unemployed. This Tuesday I am doing what they call a "working interview". I will work and shadow a nurse all day and if the office and I feel I can do the job, I will have the job! I am interested to see how it goes! :)


I hope everyone has a great week!!! :)

Park Problem Solved! :)

Looks like I have found my park! It's about 10 min. away driving, but it is totally worth it! My run wasn't all that exciting, but the Park was! :) Here are my new running buddies! :) They are fun to watch while running by! :)  Yes that's my finger...The sun was very bright and I didn't see it! lol :) I just love it all!  Stopping to take pictures! :) I have to Thank my mom who actually Google Maped this Park for me! :) So glad she found it! :)  As for the run, I really don't know how long the trail is, so I don't even know how far I went! I made it all the way around, walking, in less than 15 min. so I am thinking that it is at least a mile. If it is, then I did 3 miles today! If not, then...I don't know! It's times like these that I wish I had my Garmin ! :) For the first 2 laps, I decided to just Run/Walk. I would run 5 min. walk for 1 or 2 min. Then the last lap I just walked the whole time. Just to enjoy it! I just have to say...the hills are

Cowtown Half Recap!

On Sunday, February 24, 2013 I ran my first official Half Marathon!  Before the race started, I met up with these fellow MRTT ladies!  Pic from How My World Runs It was freezing cold (yes 33 degrees is freezing to this Texan! haha) and I was hoping it wouldn't warm up too much because I run so much better in the cold. I ended up wearing my jacket the whole time and was completely comfortable! We had a wind advisory in affect and I think the wind made it even cooler. This was also my first time to run with my new haircut and with my hair down! Didn't bother me at all! Short hair for the win! :) I was in the very last Corral to start. Yes, I know I'm slow. Get Over it!<---Saw that saying on several shirts throughout the race!  Looks like I need one! haha :) I had to post this pic, because I have no idea what I was doing, nor remember even taking it! Haha! About 20 min before the race, I headed to the porta potty's. Yeah, I should have
