~where have I been????~

Hello long lost bloggy friends!

where in the world have I been, huh?
well, I know many of you have experienced
this.....but I just felt like I had
N  O  T  H  I  N  G
to share!


nothing terribly interesting, or noteworthy
that you all might want to see.....
nothing done....completed....finished...
you know?
although ~ we did get our stairs  a  l  m  o  s  t  completed,
so that will be a post coming up......


it's not that I haven't been busy (of course!)
but busy playing with the kids....
working in the garden....
going on long bike rides....{ahhh...summer
has finally arrived in the Pac NW and it sure
feels amazing....}
running....
ok well jogging....
ok well walking mixed with jogging ;)
and that has just felt like pain on every front
I mean awesome!!!!

no seriously, I did start a running program ~
and I've successfully completed ...drumroll please......
4 weeks!!!



it's called the
plan, and it basically takes it nice & slow
getting you ready over 8-9 weeks for a 5k.


I don't know why, but I've been feeling this
overwhelming urge to be a "runner" again.
Probably because I'm in my mid 40's
and I feel like if I don't do it now ~ it'll never happen.

I used to run a fair amount in my 20's but
haven't been too good at it since.....so here I am
giving it another try.  But this time
I am doing it!! yee - haw ;)

I did over-exaggerate a tad
when I said everything hurts.....because you
know what?  it doesn't hurt too much!
I think it's the slow progression of the program
it get's you there with not too much pain.

So anyway,
my sweet followers & friends....that's where I've
been.  But, I promise to do better ;)

I will decorate, home improve, sew,
create & more......... and share it with you. 

Thanks for hanging in with me!


xoxo,


Shellagh
