You know, there are some ‘ah-ha’ moments in life when you realize that you are going to have to fight to keep your kids from going through the same injustices that you went through…
First, let me start off by saying that I know that girls are different than boys. Boys can’t GET pregnant.. except for [...]

A Very Happy Unbirthday
Posted in ramblings on January 30, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Hey, guess what… it is my very happy unbirthday today! You too? Isn’t that awesome?!?
Okay, give me a break… it is Friday, I don’t have the pager for TWO more whole weeks… and it is my work from home day. I went outside and took pictures of the frost on the roof tops…
I’m also sitting [...]
Help Desk support

I hate having to call technical support. I’m apparently not smart enough to have him actually LISTEN to me because I’m the moron sitting in front of the computer… what the hell would I know. And I am obviously female so that is yet another strike against me.
LISTEN TO ME WHEN I AM ANSWERING YOU
I’m [...]

just got a text message from number 1 nineth grader. She went to Nimitz high school today in Houston for a field meet. Apparently she did 42 push-ups (cadance push ups) which was the most of any girl there. He squad leader type told her she was a beast… and she is very proud of [...]

A Figment Of Fitness- Shoot for the Stars September 18, 2009Remember, if you shoot for the stars, even if you miss, you are likely to at least land on the moon. If you aim low and make it, you don’t REALLY know if you would have been able to make it further or not. If you aim high and you make it, you made it! If [...]
- Less than happy rainy run September 14, 2009Okay, I’m really not ready for the rain to be over, but I really wasn’t in much of a mood to be out running in it this morning… not carrying squirrel’s backpack and trying to keep her dry on the way to school and wading waist high drenched grass through ankle deep puddles… hidden by [...]
- Sunday Morning Guilt Free Workout September 13, 2009Okay, so… maybe not ENTIRELY guilt free. If it weren’t for guilt, I probably wouldn’t have gone today. I wanted desperately to go yesterday, but it was a way rainy morning and I wanted just as despirately to play with my electronics. This morning it looked like it might decide to be rainy, but I [...]
- iPod Nano 5g, My New Toy September 12, 2009OH my god. Went to the company picnic (what fun that was… NOT), had BBQ, watched people drink and become more stupider (yes, I know it is incredibly bad grammar) and got massively rained on (Yeah rain). On the plus side on the rain… we got a lot, but just north of us got 12 [...]
- Marathon Pictures September 3, 2009Feel like an idiot. I made the mistake of looking up pictures of past marathons. I feel like such a loser… Everyone is running. Everyone is so INCREDIBLY skinny. I feel like a massively huge cow that is a walking looser… This too, I know, will pass, but for tonight, I feel like I’m less than adequate… [...]
- Shirt Came Today September 1, 2009WooHoo My shirt came today!!! And, what’s even better… DH thought it wouldn’t fit… AND IT DOES!!! I’m thrilled that it came, I’m even more thrilled that it is “only” a large and it fits fine! I know what I’m wearing to work tomorrow!!! I’ve committed to not only raising money for Komen Marathon for […]
- Hit by a Truck August 31, 2009I am sitting in the breezy side yard listening to the birds, the air conditioner and the quiet. There are a couple dogs chatting with each other a block or so away. Other than that, it is one of the quietest places I’ve been in forever… Tonight, I hurt. Yesterday’s run was SO worth it, but [...]
- Distance Day August 29, 2009Today was an interesting day. I was so excited about getting out and hitting it… I got almost everything ready last night… all laid out so it was all ready this morning. I considered woosing out when I got up but I really wanted to do this so got my butt in gear. I waited till it [...]
- Cross Training Day August 25, 2009Okay, so, two days in a row… sue me. Yesterday the kids and I went down to the pool to swim. I work hard when we go to the pool… I try to run in the water… I do my version of water aerobics… I swim laps… and yesterday was no exception… the only real weirdness [...]
- Spa treatment from Rainbow Sky August 24, 2009Now, I’m starting to take training more seriously. I have started to push more and as a result I’ve started to feel sore more and more… muscle sore, tired, achy… enter, spoiling myself with stuff that I’ve gotten from Rainbow Sky. The online store is an amazing place run by a totally crazy awesomely special [...]
