Random Ramblings
I am bored. So here I sit, rambling. The kids are asleep, DH is at work, the fire is roaring, and Steven Tyler is singing to me. Love it. I am pretty content right now. Yeah there is all kinds of drama that I refuse to speak of but I am pretty content. Happy even. A little sore. 1/2 marathon training completely floods my thoughts and I wake up daily to check the torture schedule. I call it torture, but you know I love it. Can't get enough. I do look forward to those cross train days though. I had one today, but I pushed to hard and then got on the treadmill to log a few extra. Should have never done that. Ended up needing tylenol and a nap afterward! So thats what I did today. Worked out , napped, then went to my dance classes. They went well today. I introduced the kiddos to their recital music. I feel a little overwhelmed right now. Trying to think about choregraphing 10 dances is crazy, not to mention I still have to finish the Winterguard routine. Our first competition is SAturday and I am so excited! They will put on their show as is. We don't even have costumes in yet. We did do hair and make up Monday. Looks like I will be french braiding a ton of hair in the next few weeks. But they will be beautiful! I love these girls! I never thought that working with teens would be my thing but apparently it is! Of course my studio work is very rewarding as well. I love teaching the kids new things and watching them grow as a performer. Thats what it is all about. Doing something you love. I have that finally. Now to figure the rest of life out!

A day in the life...my life
I was trying hard to keep up with the 12 of 12 challenge today. I forgot to take pictures. I was so crazy busy! Which was good for the challenge. I was also sick. A mean chest cold, and I am heading to bed very soon. Not before I post this. I never said I would scrapbook them, yet, but with a little help from Piccasa I can get the challenge finished and have something pretty cool to look back on. So here it is. From left to right, top to bottom , you follow. And no the pics are not in order, I was not that organized! So my story will be chopped up. Still , you follow.
I woke up today not feeling good but new I could not afford a lounge day. I took Ryley to school, came home, showered, got K dressed and headed to.....
(picture #1) The Board of Education, to get fingerprinted for becoming a Substitute teacher. Had my packet all ready! I totally procrastinated on this and then the holidays happened. So here I was today finally getting it done. Have you ever done this? Its god awful stuff to have to get off your skin. Yuck. I felt like I stayed at the sink a half an hour scrubbing. Oh well, its done. Now I can move on , get my packet, and start excepting teaching jobs. But I swear I am only taking the high school ones. Well we will see.
Monday Winterguard practice. I feel as though we are making progress. We had lots to talk about today. Our first competition is Jan. 24th. Totally excited, but we are calling for extra practices.
Conversation Hearts. Need I say more?
Actually I guess I can. I bought these to give to my winterguard. K passed them out. Really I just wanted them for myself. I think I overdosed on them though. I am going into a sugar coma.
Doctors excuse for Ryley. R had some screaming ear pain last night so I got him an appointment. DH came home early from work(thank goodness) and took him so I would not be late for practice. K and I went to walmart for a few things and Hibbitts for Ryley a cheerleading outfit. Yes , my son is a cheerleader. Yes he is really good, thank you very much.
Mac....simply being Mac
R and K curled up...falling asleep to a movie
Yeah, the good news is my treadmill came in. The bad news is Chris had to put it together tonight! Well, he is going out of town for two weeks. I will need it! I did not get my run in today. Showed up at the gym without my running shoes, so I had to cross train. It was too cold for me tonight and oh yeah, I am sick! But the treadmill will get broken in tommorrow. If the pictures don't fall off the walls. I should have thought about this better, since it does not fit in the building out back!
K, not going to sleep but walking around the house. She found her puppy she got at McDonalds today. I got a happy meal on the run because it got to be 2pm and I realized I had not fixed lunch. Whoops!
My training schedule shot for the day , not only because of the shoe incident but the cold! Back at it tommorrow.
My calendar. Way too full for the rest of the month, especially with DH leaving for two weeks to California.
Body Glitter for my girls on Winterguard, and fancy shower gel for me. Its the little things.
Just me, totally not feeling good, but still very productive today. It was also a ladybug hair day. Thats because I can't stand to dry my hair when I am sick.
All right! I am done. Goodnight!

I came across this
I came across this quote today. I am glad that I have the mindset to right things down. I was tearing up my old day planner and keeping the things I wanted to remember when I found my page of quotes. I may have put it here before but it is worth repeating.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”- Mark Twain
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”- Mark Twain

Getting back to it.
I am so glad it is Monday, I am so ready to be back into the swing of things! Well the kids do not start school until tommorrow. But DH went back to work, dance classes start back. I started a new running schedule. We are training for a 1/2 marathon in March. I am cutting it close. ONly have 9 weeks. Which is fine. I will run my booty off until then, do the best I can and have a great time doing it. There is another one in April but I will be out of town in NYC! So excited about that trip. The kids are spending the day with Nannie and I have already got my run out of the way, and am just relaxing. Catching up on things around here. Here are some pics from the weekend. The first one is of me and Misti going to Archies and seeing Fly by Radio. Great night. I danced so much I am still sore. Awesome show. Got to love some 90's cover!
The other pic is from the really cool fog covering the mountain today.
What you do on New Year's Day you will do all year!
Okay well other than packing up the fireworks stand in the cold wind, my main goal today was to trail run. I definetly needed my two running buddies with me. I was not sure how it was all going to work out because of babysitters but by 2 it did. We headed up there, in layers, and started off. It was awesome. They loved it. I think I could get them hooked. We ran/walked for two hours up there. Dodged briars(okay one got me), peed in the woods, jumped over mud and water, and almost got run over by some bikes. Good times. I forgot how much I loved it. Its been months. Too Long! But we definetly vowed to get off the roads some and do more of it! Here is my pic for the day. I am not mentioning any resolutions you know. So I will not mention the need to post a pic a day. We will see how long it lasts!
Rocking the Fireworks stand on New Years Eve!
So we had this fundraiser for the Winterguard. A TNT Fireworks stand. I really thought it was a crazy idea when we were unloading the truck and unpacking the boxes then pricing everything, yada, yada, yada. Whats even more crazy is how cold it was to be there until 11:30 last night! OMG , it took hours for me to thaw! But we had fun! Not exactly how I thought I would spend the Eve, but it turned out better than expected. The best news is that each kid will probably go home with 50$. And we have 21 kids on our team! That is truly a blessing for many of these kids!
