Rants, Recipes, and Running

It's time for my monthly update. If you sense a tinge of negativity in my voice today. You are detecting correctly! I'm not going to delve into the details of why . Just know that I want to fast forward through this phase of my life. I know, you're all going to give me some life wisdom saying "You learn something from every phase of life. This will give you character". Well, I dont feel very "characterized" right now. Just pissed worried, and stressed out. I bet that was enjoyable annoying for you all to read my moaping. So, we'll move on to the October update!! :) Current Book: Currently I am just starting to read the book "Labor Day" - Joyce Maynard. Current Food items: (because I have some odd eating habits...this deserve a category) -Whole wheat rotini noodles with basil leaves and tomatoes. My food of choice before my long runs! -Low Fat Cinnamon Graham crackers with milk. My favorite "bed time snack" -Dried

Greetings, everyone! Let's be honest, my life is lacking in "depth" right now. Therefore, I have no interesting subjects to blog about. Or funny stories to tell. Or crazy rants to release. However, I will fill you in a few things... 1) My flowers lasted through the entire summer of Tucson, AZ. I feel pretty darn proud of that. The crazy part is....summer isn't over yet. It was 98 today, it's supposed to be 102 tomorrow, and 100 Thursday. GO AWAY SUN! WE DON'T LIKE YOU ANYMORE! Sorry for that. I'm moving to Antactica. Or Oregon. Or Washington -- where it rains every day and the sun never shines. Not really. We just bought a house in Oro Valley, AZ! (north of Tucson) - and we close January 13! We can't move, silly!;) 2) My husband sure has been traveling a lot for work. I think I need to join him. He's seen the beach twice now in the past 2 weeks. And he's going to see it again in 2 weeks. I'm envious! And it makes me realize how

I've taking a little break from blogging for the past couple of weeks. My explanation to come at a later date. But I see that the 10 on Tuesday is on positivity, nostalgia, happy, essential things. So, I decided to join! We can all use a little positive this Tuesday, right?! :-) Here goes! 1. Growing up, what was one favorite item that you had to have with you at all times? I never had an item that was crazy neccessary to have with me as a kid. I was a kid! As long as I was semi-entertained, I was happy. I guess if I were to pick something...I'd say -- someone to talk to. When I was a little one, I would talk and talk and talk and talk and tell stories for ever. I feel sorry for any victims of my childhood....;) 2. Being an adult, what is one favorite item that you have to have with you at all times, and what happens if you do not have it with you? Do you lose your sanity or just go back home to get it? My crackberry, unfortunately. I am a slave to this thing. Especia
