Wow, has it been that long?


Work, running, swimming, pre-school, teaching, oh and somewhere in that mix some painting that has been put on hold for a month.

Life has been busy and then some. We've had our down time, but it's usually spent falling asleep on the couch watching our "stories" as my grandma used to call them.

Lil girl is having a splash on the swim team. Every meet she improves her time from the last. We are so proud of her. She is also enjoying the 4th grade a LOT. She has lots of friends, reads all the time and her writing and imagination are soaring.


Lil man, well, 3 1/2 is such a fun age. All the questions, the tantrums and everything else in between. He's doing great though. Had a scare about the appendix the other day, but we can breathe a sigh of relief that is was just a wee viral infection causing some flare up. Phew, dodged on bullet.


Sadly, my grandfather passed away. He was 86 (I think) He taught us all so much growing up and was a good man. He leaves behind his wife, 3 daughters (my mom already passed) and lots of us grandkids and great-grand kids.

Hubby LOVES teaching still, but it poops him out. The students do really enjoy him and he's a great teacher. Think it was in his genes. He's also organized some time-trial bike rides once a week. Many students from his HPV team come out for them.

I've been in training with a friend for my first 10K trail race. That's us at the top before the race. Even though it's over, I'm gonna keep running. This week I'm taking off. I turned my ankle on mile five and also jammed my shoulder catching myself when I slipped crossing a stream somewhere around mile 3 or 4.

Well, when my home computer is more cooperative, I'll get more pics loaded up. Have a great Halloween, and see you on the flip side!
