So, I have been wanting to start a blog for quite sometime, but if you knew me, you would understand why I haven't. I am what they call the "idea fairy." At least that is what my husband calls me! I am very good at coming up with ideas and strategies and plans, however, my follow through really SUCKS!!
Now that I am finally coming to terms with this part of me, maybe I can slow down and actually complete a few of them.
My family has recently re-located from North Pole, Alaska to Jackson, TN. Yes, I know, this is a crazy persons move!! Alaska is the second love of my life, with my husband in a slight first!! I also have two beautiful, crazy, super energetic, wonderful boys! They are B, who is 7 years old, and N who is 3 years old. B has just started 2nd grade here in Jackson, and is so far loving it. We were a bit worried about this, since he went to a private christian school in Alaska. But so far so good, if only he could control his talking!! Pretty sure that is just his age. B also really loves the weather here in Jackson, me and N, not so much, the humidity sucks!
We also have 2 awesome dogs, that go everywhere with us, until we got down here, and it is much less dog-friendly around here. Brewtis is my husband's pride and joy, he is a 4 year old Newfoundland/ Rottweiler mix. He's gorgeous and is more Newf that anything. He is very lazy, and thinks all people love him!! He also drools alot, which is a big pain in the butt, but we love him despite his slobber! My dog is a chocolate Labradoodle named Barley, that I love to death! She will be 2 in September, and is finally nearing the end of "puppy hood," which we are ALL thankful for!
Soooooooooo, now to some "meat and potatoes!" The reason I started this blog is merely to get some stuff down on paper, and mostly to encourage my husband to start writing as well. He is an awesome writer and has some great stories to tell. I also think that everyone should write down stories from their childhood memories to their everyday occasions, this way all history is not lost. It is very important to me that my children know me and where I came from, and where they came from, along with stories from their childhood that they may not remember!! And a few "blackmail" stories never hurts!!
Well, I would hate to give everything away all on the first post, so I will save some for later, trust me there is much more to come. Especially about my adventures of getting back into running! Until Friday, I had not ran for almost 3 years!! But due to health circumstances, my husband has gotten back into it, and I have decided to follow suit. Although I don't think my body is following suit as well!! There is lots of aches and pains going on here, but alot of them are permanent ones that will never go away, thanks to the Army!!
So, quickly, because I sais I was done (yeah right), I began running/walking again on Friday. My husband's Aunt came over and we walked (with jogging in between) for at least a mile and a half. Then Saturday morning we probably only did a 3/4 to a mile, with more walking than jogging, and then this morning I did at least a mile and a half with the dogs, with jogging intermittently throughout. Super sore, and I KNOW I need better shoes!!
