Home Alone

I'm over October and ready for November.  October really is my favorite month and I love everything that comes with it..... until 2011.  David has been the house officer all month.  This means that he is THE doctor in charge during the night.  He goes to work at 6:30 pm and doesn't get home until almost 8 am.  I don't see him much these days and I'm about to go crazy because of it.  It's difficult to make decisions and be productive when he's not around.  By productive, I mean that I'm unable to hang mirrors, install curtain tie-backs, decide on a dining room table and other needed furniture, etc.
We haven't had a date night in ages and haven't engaged in any real conversation.  Even tonight I was only able to see him for a few minutes due to a faculty meeting I had after school today.  I just have to remind myself that November is around the corner and things will be a little more back to normal.... normal being days.
On a super positive note, I registered for a couple more races.  I'll be participating in a 5K this weekend, a 12K, 3 half marathons, and a full marathon.  Thank goodness for running!

Clown-inspired

Here are a few photos of my most recent cookie job.  They were clown-inspired for a sweet little girl's 5th birthday party.  Her mother made the adorable cupcakes.

Living Room Update

I finally decided on a rug this weekend.  I'm still in need of a coffee table, leather chair, a vintage/antique chair, new curtains, and maybe some more paint to complete this room.  It's going to take some time to find the perfect pieces.  

Change of Plans

So, it's been a long time since I've posted anything.  Sorry about that.  Life has been very busy!  


Anyways, I'm sure you're wondering about the whole "change of plans" post.  Well, Dallas White Rock will NOT be my third half marathon.  It'll be my fourth.  
= )  That's right!!!  I just registered for the Tulsa Route 66 half marathon on Nov. 20 so that will be my third half marathon.  I'll be taking a little road trip with my running buddy, Lisa.  


I also registered for my 5th half marathon.  It will be in Little Rock, Arkansas on March 4.  So I'll have FIVE half marathons under my belt before running the OKC Memorial Marathon.  My training has been going alright.  I suffered from a cold for a little over a week and missed one weekend long run.  I've been back out there since, but I really need to start kicking it into high gear now.  I'm absolutely thrilled to be running so much and participating in all these races.  It is so fun and an amazing journey.
