Memories!

A fun idea from my friend Amanda's blog:

Memory Game

1. As a comment on my blog, leave a memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you know me a little or a lot, anything you remember! If we're only blogging friends, write about a post that is the most memorable for you.


2. Next, if you feel so inclined, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. If you leave a memory about me, I'll be sure to write one about you...!


3. If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. ☺ And please do this on your page, too, so we can all share in the fun times together. :)

Stress Eating is Underrated

Seriously. I was about ready to pop a vein last night and while at the grocery store, I turned the corner and rays of light shone down to reveal my newly-rediscovered love, mini powdered Donettes! You know, the ones covered in crack? Well, as soon as I made my way to the car, I grabbed the bag and began eating them on the drive home. It's amazing how a couple of those things (or 16) can calm you right down. And then everyone gets to live! The world would be a much happier and (safer!) place if we all tried that more often.

I Must Have Caught a Bug!/Update

Well, folks...I am officially crazy, because I just signed up for my second 1/2 marathon! The really crazy part is that I am very excited about it. I am even more thrilled that my good friend and running buddy, Nancy, will be running it with me. She ran the first one with me as well, and she is tough and very motivating. She almost has me talked into doing a full marathon in the fall, but I don't know if I am that crazy yet! You never know, though. I will keep you posted. :o)


And weird - it is July already! I hope everyone has been having a lovely summer, I know I have. I spent the last two weeks of June in Idaho with my sisters Janie and Amy and a small portion of that time in Seattle with my husband (we got be grown-ups - fun!). It was so nice to get away and see new things and be with my family that I miss so much. And sis, you are a saint to put up with us for so long!!! Thank you, though - we had a wonderful time!
