2 mile run

This is my update on how my training is going .. Well because of last week's crazy ness i did not run until yesterday . I thought for sure my mile would be a 12 min. one. NOPE I ran in 18 min, 2 miles that is a 9 min mile I am almost to my goal of an 8. Plus it was really windy out yesterday so I wonder if maybe if there was not wind I could have ran a 8 in a half min mile.

Oh yes next week is so exciting hubby will be home for GOOD!!!!

I am so excited I can't stand it , A little nervous I have to get used to sharing our bathroom . and for the last two weeks I have not used his side I have been training myself. The bed has never been an issue I like my side and usually there have been tons of pillows on his side.

So I am getting ready for my next week and getting the house ready and myself ..( I've got to look so good lol)

Lots to do and some projects I am working on I will post tomorrow one of them if it gets finished and if it does not then I will post some of it.

He Hear's Us

I have to post this !

how great full I am to my heavenly father he heard me today. he hears me every day but today he knew how bad I needed him.

I was driving home from swimming lessons and my car was kind-of acting weird so at the stop light I thought I need to restart my car ( BAD choice) my car stop and did not start back up I had two people drive around me before someone helped my put it in neutral and pull it to the side. Best part is that I was less than a mile from home. I keep thinking why could my car not just die at home. well the guy who helped then asked me if I had someone to call and sadly I had to umm NO ( hubby is over seas). so to my surprise a member of my church had pulled over and saw it was me and took me and the boys home.

then I got a call which lead to to tears and I thought wow 10 days and hubby is home why all this now ... oh and earlier I found out I am forbidden to eat anything that is not natural . I can not eat processed food at all and no dairy . But I am okay with that.

So God sent me someone I knew to rescue me and my boys. He said it will be okay don't freak out. He knew I needed him and he was there. He heard my quiet prayer of help me I do not know what to do I felt like a little girl lost in the mall who can't find her way.

I feel so love by my heavenly father that he has not left my side in the last year he has kept me strong in times of fear and pain. He helped me find true beauty in things and people.. He has been there when i felt I had no one else. i am so glad that I had him in my life and he watches over my family .

he really does know when we need him the most and when we need him a little but I know one thing for sure is that he will never leave us comfortless he is always with us.

Am I CRAZY???


Robie Creek is the toughest 1/2 marathon in the northwest and I am RUNNING it !


I have done this race in the past and have loved the challenge of it . The trail is beautiful and quiet . I always have time to think and last year i guess they changed the rules for ipods but now you can have them back. I am really excited this summer I was running about an 8 min. mile and 9 back to 8.. today I ran 10 and 10 so I need to speed up and get into gear. I am really excited my goal is to beat my last time which was in 2008 i ran and walked in 3:30. This years goal is 3:00 if I beat it in the 2:40's I would be really excited . I am going to just focus on my time not how fast anyone else is running. There are some power houses in this race I think one year a girl finished in 1:30 and that's fast, the incline is pretty steep. I don't want to run that fast I want to run for me and for my health and for the pure challenge of this awesome race. The best part is I got in this afternoon and it's only open to so many racers. so cheer me on it's not till april But I am going to post my progress . OH yeah I will be posting more art and projects that I have been inspired to make so stay tuned. One more thing to add Thank you L you know who you are. thanks for the awesome birthday present ( two bird that will never die!) I love them and of course YOU KNOW WHY! love you guys ...
