Moving Day

I made time to blog HA! Well I am waiting oh how I am not patient. Hubby went to pick up the trailer and truck and now is helping his dad get a skunk out of the water pipe outside. Hubby's words to me were "I might stink when I get home" . I'm think this should be fun .

Anyhow today is my last day at one of my favorite houses that I have lived in and I now it's time to explore the wilderness in Utah woohooo.

I will always be an Idaho Girl and will love all my friends that live there. Thank you for all your caring and love I will miss you .... OH I have not cried yet so I think I am doing well I about teared up last night and a close friend said your not moving your going on vacation. I thought wow what a great way to think of it ....

Utah is a permanent move so it's like a really big vacation I never leave.

anyhow I better get the MOVE on

4 more days

HOLY cow... It's four days till we move to Utah . I am so excited and sad at the same time I think I am like a roller coaster and my mood changes depending on who I am talking to . I just found out a friend of mine is moving to Utah too so I am happy that I will know one more person. We fond a town home and it's cute and I am looking forward to decorating it . I have an idea for the master bedroom and I think it will be beautiful . I am still debating the colors , our bed is in a khaki color and it's fancy . I am wanting to paint the accent furnishing's to give the room color and I can't decide ( rustic pink, olive green, dutch blue ) I am not sure yet I'll have to wait and see what the room looks like. OH I have only seen the pictures my hubby went and saw it and finally liked something. I had sent him to so many houses and I am glad he finally picked something. I did not find this one he did and he liked the area.

So I have not posted any art for awhile but I have a few works in progress and I have this one it's older but I did a dreams art journal and I did it in a mini style .

I am working on a secret project and you'l find out more after this crazy move .

OH yes if you have not heard Adobe CS5 preview came and I am excited because no more codes when blogging . There are lots of great new features and you can check it out on their web site.

have a great week

Lots of CRAZIENESS

Well first off we are moving .... hubby got a job only being home 3days it's so great. The sad part is that we will be moving out of state . We have lived in Idaho for our whole lives and now we will be relocating to Beautiful Utah .

I am scared and sad , But I will live anywhere my sweetheart is . We spent the last year apart and I am ready to be with him . The boys are excited but I think they think we are going to live at Lagoon all summer . so I am crazy busy with the boys , School , teaching creative classes , and packing up our lives.

Today I ran/walked four 1/2 miles I have not run since my last post and felt it today. I really needed it to clear my mind for while and feel free. It is a good thing to let loose but not all the time. I walk outside my house and the "for rent " sign was up .. I had a huge pit in my heart hurt my mom was standing there with me and she sat in her car and cried . I feel for her we are so close .

She is trying to find a job in Utah and I really am praying for her so she will not be alone . I will miss all my Idaho Girls and will visit as much as we can .

I love Idaho but I am excited for a new adventure and a new place it should be fun.

so thats about it for today ... I am having to pack up my crafty stuff and it's hard . But it's nice to de clutter our life.

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 ...
