    Isn't it funny how over time our goals change.  What we once thought we would never do we have now achieved and set new goals in its place...
    One of my first goals was being able to run 3 miles or a 5k race, then I wanted to beat my time at a 5k, and now after running my second half marathon I am actually thinking my next goal needs to be a full marathon?  And who would have thought, especially...

    Here is a recap of my half marathon weekend...
    On Friday morning I thought I'd call the 2 local hotels one more time to see if we could get in closer to the marathon instead of having to drive in or take shuttle in the morning.  Luckily there was just a cancellation and we were in!  I was so excited on how much easier this was going to make our morning!
    Friday evening we arrived in Akron and got...

    We are one day from the half marathon and I'm both excited and nervous.  Mostly my nerves are about getting to the start line in time and good weather and of course a good run!  I want to take note of how I feel at that turn off, where the half marathon turns and the full marathon keeps going.  Will I be thankful that I'm making the turn, or will I be feeling good and wishing I was going further....

    This is my almost finished...

    I did it, I finally purchased my E-reader and decided on the Kindle.  I considered my options for months, actually years.  I wanted a kindle when they first came out, and then over time so many other options were coming up that I decided to wait it out.
    Then came the ipad and a serious debate began.  The ipad is so much more than an e-reader and can even download kindle books, but the things that...

    Today is the anniversary of my brother Joe's death.  He went into the hospital on August 23rd and battled his way through all the complications from the aneurysm but then lost his life in surgery on September 17th.

    I think about him constantly and a lot of times that thought takes me back to our childhood.  He and I both being middle children had an unspoken connection.  We played together as...

    This week the theme for Team up Thursday is small...
    When thinking of this weeks theme I was wanted to do something of a comparison and then I remembered the bracelet I just got from Etsy that has all my favorite books of 2010 attached to it and thought it would be a great way to emphasize the theme of small next to the actual books they represent.  Jill chose to represent small in a different way......
