The SnowFlake Necklace.



Yet again my blog has been left unattended to for days and days and days.....

I have nothing to write that is running or drinking related.  I do have a funny story to share though!!


Background story: 
The first year that my husband and I were together, he bought me a heart locket for Christmas.

The second year that my husband I were together, he bought me a heart locket for Christmas.

The third year......get it???  Okay....



So THIS year (year 12), our local jewellery store places their annual flyer on our door.  In it I find a snowflake necklace that I LOVE!!!

I bring the flyer to the dining room table and show my 2 boys, 5 and 7, and my husband my deepest Christmas desires.

I then explain, kindly, to my children that mommy doesn't really like hearts and to keep that in mind for future presents.  Stars, diamonds, and, especially, snowflakes are great though!!

We finish our supper and proceed with our evening plans of grocery shopping.

After we're done at the store, we drive around to look at Christmas lights.  I felt this was the perfect time to question whether or not my family understand my Christmas needs for this year.  



This is the conversation:

Me:  Hey guys, do you remember what Mommy wants for Christmas?

Reid (7): A snowflake necklace.
 
George ( the husband): A heart locket......right Heath???
 
Heath (5): ................Shut yer face, Dad.
 
Me: BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA.
Best night ever.

Feel the burn.

B is no longer for beer and I'm sad   I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more.  Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by.  I've decided to go with " burn "  because I am already feeling it!! On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run.  DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing.    My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program.  It's time to feel the burn !  Can you feel it?

So we did something fun!

So we did something super fun and scary last spring... we decided to move to our lake cabin full time !  Ahhh!  It's been very trying and very exciting and I think we're actually settled in out here.  Also, HI!  I know it's only been a short while since I posted last...errr...ok, it's been a year and a half, but priorities, right? So, yeah, downsizing...haha!  In 2 years, we've gone from 3800 square feet of living space to about... 750.  And, you know what? It's totally not all sunshine and rainbows, but it works!  Living at the lake and having all of these amazing trees around us is completely worth it.  The boys have settled into, yet, another new school and this school is the best one yet! Around the end of April last year, I came out to the cabin to clean up our holiday trailer so we could sell it.  I took a break, made a caesar , and sat on the front lawn with Duke in the small bit of sunshine that made its way through the ...

Good choices.

Happy Monday everyone!  I hope your week is a good one! We're on Letter G for the A-Z Challenge, and my commit to be fit post is about making good choices. Making good choices isn't always easy for me.  Mainly, because I'm usually really drunk and not thinking about what's best for me in the long run. You're probably thinking that I'm talking about making good diet choices and, of course, I am, but they aren't the only choices that need to be made when choosing to live a fit and healthy lifestyle.   Nutrition and diet choices are, actually, probably the easiest of all them all.
