This still blows my mind that our "Girls Weekend" is heading out of town for a race! When did that happen?? :) Kristin and Carrie are running their first 1/2 marathon. Originally I was going to do that too, but I never ended up doing the training, so I'm running the 5K with Jill.
We're leaving this morning after all meeting up, then heading out to CT. We are going to be picking up our bib numbers and going to the runner's expo. We have dinner reservations tonight too. I, of course, over packed! My belly is acting up this morning, so lots for that, plus muscle relaxers and whatnot too. SO much stuff for one night!
I can't wait though, this is going to be SO much fun!
Otherwise... Hmm...
FINALLY got my license on Wednesday! Only took over a month. But I was worried about not having an ID on my going out of town. So I do feel better about that. Funny thing... my last picture was 10 years old. I really haven't changed all that much in the 10 years. The color of my hair is different. The shape of my eyebrows. I didn't age that much either. SO funny!
I didn't run on Monday... it was just too warm out. Wednesday night I went and only one, sort of beginner was there. I went with her. We did walk a lap, jog a lap... maybe got in 7 or 8 laps of jogging that way. But it was good. Felt good. Tomorrow will be a good test to see where I'm at. I just hope the weather cooperates for us. Nice, clear, dry, crisp... that would be perfect!
I haven't done all that much this week as far as trying to figure out what to do on the becoming a trainer front. LOTS of work I need to do on that! I really need to get on the ball.
What else? Work kind of sucked this week. I had a hard time focusing on Tuesday and Wednesday. Both were kind of quiet days. I was tired and not motivated and just sort of bored with it all. Thursday was better. I was busy and could focus better. Plus, I know I was off today and it was the start of my weekend.
My boyfriend is still awesome. He's coming to my house after he gets out of work today to feed my cats for me, then he'll be back in the morning to feed them again. I appreciate it SO much. Not sure what I'd do if he couldn't do this for me. He's just a really great guy.
Last night was too funny when I got to his house. His dog was SO excited to see me! I had bought a couple of little toys for him and he was jumping up higher than the counter as I was opening up the package!
The first toy I gave him lasted all of 5 minutes! He just ripped it apart, stuffing and all! SO funny!

I love this dog. He's just so cute and just a teddy bear. I love how people are like their dogs, because this dog is perfect for my boyfriend. Big and bulky, kind of intimidating and scary looking, but so sweet and cuddly. A giant teddy bear... both of them! :)
I really do love my boyfriend so much. It still surprises me how this whole thing just happened. Unexpected. He's a a great match for me. I love how comfortable I am with him and how easy it is to just be me without anything else. Sweatpants, no makeup or all dressed up, cranky or silly or goofy or serious. All sides of me. Just me. And my God do we laugh!
Last night we were going to bed. I don't even know how it started. Wait... his feet were cold. I don't do feet! He was trying to move his feet to warm them up! LOL! I just started laughing. Then his hand, the way it was on me, tickled me. Then he was tickling me. Then his dog jumped in the middle of us... Rocco was literally sitting on top of me! And his paws were on my hair. I couldn't move! We were laughing so hard, I couldn't catch my breath and tears were rolling down my face. It was hysterical! We just get silly and laugh. ALL the time! I love that we always have fun, no matter what. :) He just makes me smile.
Not much else going on with me.
I started making my Christmas shopping list. Not too bad. Lots of restaurant gift certificates, a few bracelets, some sports stuff. I even have a great idea for my grandfather and for my boyfriend. But Grandpa's I need to do NOW and the boyfriends I kind of have to start looking for now too. I could probably get a good deal if I did his gift now. We'll see how that works out for me! LOL!
All in all, life is good. Some bad days still. Some tough parts and tough situations come up now and again, but more good than bad and more highs than lows. Things are just really good and I'm really happy. And for once, I know that I'll stay this happy. I'll still have the occasional tough thing here and there, but overall, I'll be this happy.
I have great people in my life. I have really opened up to such a better path and direction in my life. I'm healthy, fit and I have people who support that all around me. Good people who are happy, positive and healthy too. And fun! :) It is all about fun! I have to have fun in whatever I do and I always do!
