Amazing!!!

I can't even believe it!! I actually ran 8 miles on Tuesday!! I only walked for 1 minute between each mile! I can't believe it!! Although the 1/2 marathon is 4 1/2 weeks away and that is 13.1 but I'm hoping my next few weeks of training will help me. I can't imagine yet actually completing it, but I will definetely have to get the sticker for my car once I do!! hee hee! I totally felt the pain that night though and I'm still a little sore in my calves so I am postponing my run for tonight until tomorrow. My goal is to try to run 10 next tuesday....holy camoly!! (not sure how to spell that) I don't know how that run will go, but I will just try my best. I don't expect to be able to run the whole 13 but I figure if I can train to run as far as I can then I can run/walk the rest. So we will see what happens.
I went to an eye appt the other day to check on getting Lasik eye surgery...eeekk! I am scheduled for Dec. 18th. I am of course scared but I can't wait to not be blind anymore and be able to see the big "E" on the eye chart and my alarm clock without glasses! The lady told me that I will be able to actually function and see that same day without my glasses!! WHAT!! That in it self seems like a miracle! I would have it sooner but you are limited in your excercise and exertion for a little bit after and of course I am in training mode (sorta..ha ha) so I thought I would wait until after the 1/2 to have the surgery. Nice Christmas present to myself!! :-)
Soccer is almost over for D with only 3 more games. He has really enjoyed it this year. He really like the running part most of all. He plays more of a stand in the back defensive type position. He doesn't aggressively chase after the ball, but he loves to go into full sprint trying to catch the guy heading to the other goal. It's pretty funny! I still think I might have a track star on my hands . I signed him up for another kids race in two weeks also.
B is doing very well in TKD. I believe he will be testing for his next belt next week. He is so attentive in class..most of the time...and is so cute being the shortest and youngest in his class.
I am getting the last of my cookie invites out this weekend and then I will post some pics on here. I don't want to spoil the suprise for those who will get one by them seeing it here first. I think they turned out really cute!!
The boys and I finished decorating their feather projects for school. It's funny that they were both sent home a paper feather to decorate with whatever they wanted. They loved using food items like pretzel sticks, mini marshmallows, and cheerios.
Well time to finish up nightly duties and then catch up on tivo. I have to watch part 2 of the housewives of Atlanta and then the premier of housewives of orange county...I think so far I like the orange county show the best. Not so much that I like the girls the best but something about it, I just like it the best so far with NY in second. I never watched the NJ and only caught the last 1/2 of the season of ATL. So I'm excited to see how the new season of orange county starts out. Then I have to watch survivor and hope that slimey russell slips up and finally the people will open their eyes and vote him out and not let him run the show. Anyway.....toodles.!
