Mama Said There'd be Days Like These.....

Soooo..... yesterday my 11 year old got his heart broken for the first time. Well, maybe not broken, but his girlfriend of 6 months broke up with him. I was dreading this day for a week now, and it has came and gone. And he's fine!!! So glad at how he is handling it. He can be sensitive, so I wasn't sure how this would all go down. There aint nothin' Mama Can't fix... ;) Just hope they remain friends!

Today will be Week3 Day 2 for c25k. My legs are still sore, but I'm going anyways. I have a big girl's weekend planned at the cottage, so I need to be disciplined before and after Saturday. Not at all on Saturday though. We're taking our bikes and maybe going on a hike while we're there. Hope you can't get fined for drinking and driving (a bike)! :)

September 30, 2009


Yesterday was Week 3, Day 1!!! I loved it!

I had yawned all day, I thought I was going to swallow my face. At suppertime, I picked Brandon up from Krista's and she mentioned how we couldn't run because of the rain. I could have allowed her to believe it was still raining....but I am too damn honest! I told her I'd call her when I got home, because since our last run, my knee feels like it wants to turn outwards. The minute I got int he door I called, I knew I HAD to run last night. The program was run 90 seconds, walk 9o seconds, run 3 mins, walk 3 mins, and repeat. At about 2 mins into the first run, I told Krista I was going to walk, and she said, "No, you can do it!" Actually, she yelled it, because she was WAY ahead of me. And I did it.... I kept going. :) I came home, put 2 rows of Freezies on my shins, and watched Biggest Loser. Was a great night!


Tomorrow is October 1st! Woohoo, let the Hallowe'en decorating begin. I think Hallowe'en should be more of a season, like Christmas, than one day....

First Entry

Since I have started the c25k running program with my husband, I thought I'd start a blog to track our progress. It's more of a public diary. It'll be about everything. I've had lots of people mention me doing a "cosmetic" blog since I no longer work as a cosmetician, and they miss my expertise! :) Love that! So I'll throw that into it too.

Tonight I did W2D2 with Krista. Wasn't liking it. Not a bit. I think the fact that the dog chewed Brandon's cell phone to it's death, might have contributed to the foul mood. But once we were done, I felt great. As always. Once the sweat dries, and the breathing sounds somewhat normal, I can relish int he fact that I am a "runner". Hell, I know it's only running for 90 seconds, walking for 2.5 mins... but it's something!

Geoff is away for work in Ontario. :( Miss him. <3
