Happy Monday :)

Well mom and I went shopping for the day! I am ALMOST finished Christmas shopping! The holidays are right around the corner. I also got some really nice stuff for myself :). We had such a fun day together.

I'm thinking of joining a gym. I need something to kick my butt back into shape. I love the running, but a little something extra is needed for me. I'm really going to give it my all. Fingers crossed for me. lol

Tomorrow is back to work :( I work all morning/afternoon then I'll run with mom. It won't be too bad and I'm sure we'll have a good run. Probably around 6 miles which will be good.

Still pray for our friend. No new news :( Just praying and praying

Have a great night!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

All of our decorations are up!! And we get the tree this week. I'm so excited!! It's going to be a great holiday season!! We had a great Thanksgiving! It was a blast!


Please say a special prayer for our friend. The lady who fell down the steps still hasn't woken up. But she is showing brain activity. It's a great sign. Unfortunately, it's a very long process. We pray for her each and every day. It's a shame that this happened. And even more a shame it happened around the holidays.


Mom and I had a great 5 mile run today. I'm coming down with a cold and mom is just getting over one. So it was definitely hard to breathe, but we did it in under 50 minutes which is great! We also did a lot of hills

4 days til Turkey Day!

Mom and I had a great 5 miler today!!!! We did a lot of hills and kept a steady 9:40 pace. We plan on running a half in the spring and a full in the fall. It's exciting, yet scary because I have so many goals in mind! We are running again in the morning.

Today we started decorating for CHRISTMAS!!! I can't believe that. It's so close and so exciting. I have most of my shopping done.

I baked an amazing gingerbread cake today!! It was really really good! I also helped mom make some baked ziti :) I'm just so proud of myself lol. My cooking skills are improving ;)

This week is going to fly by. I work Tues-Wed BUT Wed night I have exciting plans. Woahh for Thanksgiving Eve! It's gonna be a fun night :).

Hope everyone had a nice relaxing weekend :)

1 week til Thanksgiving!

Hello Hello! I can't believe Thanksgiving is exactly 1 week from today! I'm so excited. We aren't having that many people, probably around 11. It should be a lot of fun! I love watching the parade every year!!!!!

Sadly, our friend in Long Island had to have another brain surgery because the bleeding got worse. The surgery went well, but we still don't know anything. She hasn't woken up in a week. It's a scary thing but we are praying each and every day!

I have 10-15 pound to lose. I'm not going to hardcore diet right before the holidays. I'm just trying to work out more and make better choices of what I eat. After New Years and the Poconos, I'll go on a strict diet. Now that me and mom are back to running, I have to knock off this excess weight.

Work is going well. It's definitely keeping me busy. I'm putting in a lot more hours, but it's totally worth it.

Well I'm off to do the elliptical. Hope you guys have a great day!

Sunday's Run

Mom and I went for a run this morning. It was suppose to be a long run but neither of us were feeling up to it. So, we set out for 5 miles. We had a pretty successful run, but as soon as we stopped, but achilles started to hurt. It's been bothering me ALL day!! I'm super upset, and hope I'll be able to run on it. I don't want to be injured. There's this black cloud over us, and it better go away ASAP!

It's the weekend!

Happy Saturday!!! I had an absolutely great day at work! I love my job and love the customers (almost every day of the week ;) lol). But seriously, it was a great day at work and had the nicest clients ever!

Unfortunately, we were suppose to go to Brooklyn tonight but got some bad news and the dinner had to be cancelled. I feel like there is a huge black cloud over us. Thankfully, we are having a good year and my mom is cancer free. But sadly, people close to us aren't doing well. It's extremely sad and very stressful.

Please keep our dear friend in your prayers as well (the one I discussed in the previous post). We still know nothing. She is still in intensive care in the neuro part of the hospital. We are just praying each and every day for her speedy recovery.

Hope you all enjoy your night!
