Another week has passed

Well, another working week!
Only 3 nights this week, and that was enough… Next week will be easy for me… I work Sunday night, am off Monday, then have orientation Tuesday during the day… And that’s it!
Yesterday was a nice run with my mom. I’m so proud of her! We finally have her up to 8 miles!! And another good thing is that she feels confident enough to send in her registration for the Mercedes 1/2 Marathon!! Even though my mom is a bit slower than I am, I plan on crossing that finish line with her come Februrary! It’s very important to me to have my mom finish yet another 1/2 marathon. She is, after all, my inspiration for running! I grew up at the park, pretty much! It seems I was always waiting for my mom to finish up a run… Now, I run at that same park I used to play at while waiting for her to run. Unfortunately, times have changed, and I’m not able to bring my kids to this park and have them play while I run. Just not safe enough to leave them alone. But, I digress… My mom hasn’t been running much over the past, well, say 10 years? Almost 2 years ago, she posed the question of running another marathon. That’s the only reason I ran CMM the first time around. Becuase I made a promise to myself and to my mom that I would run the marathon. My mom wasn’t able to run that marathon with me, but to be able to get her to run a 1/2 marathon is just as good! Plus, she plans on running the last 10K of CMM coming up in April…
Nothing new is going on in my life… I can’t believe that I’ve been employed for 3 weeks already! Boy time really flies! No running for me today, but I’m back at it tomorrow!
Have a great week!

Just think of all that money you’ll have soon!
