A Dogs Life!



This is not a post about me!!! It's all about my favorite pooch Lucy!!! Well, this week I took off 4 days of work to get some rest and relaxation! Well, if that's possible when you have a list a mile long of things to do! When ever I am off I try and do something with my dog Lucy... It could be a walk or a ride in the car. Ronnie and I are not home as much as we should be! When I see her little mug look up at me when I leave a feel a bit guilty! So, we planned on having our carpets cleaned this weekend which meant Lucy needs a bath too! Everything CLEAN!!! The carpet looks great and Lucy enjoyed running like a crazy dog through the house with no furniture! Then the next day we were off to Groomingdales ( yes, it's really called that!) We usually give Lucy her bath... but, this time we decided let her get pampered! Then I would take her to Pet Smart with me as I needed to make a trip and she hadn't been with me since she was a puppy! She was such a good dog and it was so funny to see how afraid she was of the sliding doors! Anyways, the picture posted above is her knocked out from her busy schedule! I love this little mutt! ( I can say that cause she really is!) Until Sunday when she dumped her food outside and dragged her new bowl along the brick wall??? WHY??? Then I have to clean up the food and she is trying to eat the food as I put it in the dust pan? So, after being woke up by her loud banging outside i sat on the couch for my coffee and got her to eat! ( ya, inside on the clean carpet.... my husband would kill me!) See, she is not allowed on the couch or upstairs.... So, I'm drinking my coffee just sitting on the couch and she thinks she should be just like me and jump on the couch and just RELAX! Needless to say she is sitting next to me now upstairs!!! I wish I had half the life my little Lucy has! She is spoiled ROTTEN!!!

Happy Easter!


Nothing to exciting to post! just wanted to say Happy Easter to everyone! This year was very quiet for us... usually we have a big dinner at my parents house. This year we took my Dad out to dinner because my Mom is still sick in the hospital. We also went to my in laws house for a wonderful lunch! We ate allot... but, it was all so GOOD! We are very blessed to have the family that we have and how close we are :)
One more holiday down... what's next! LOL!!!

Are You Crazy and Serious?


My Running Gear!!!

Yes, that would be the reaction I am getting from everyone when I tell them that I am trying to train to run a 13 mile marathon!!!! Some how I got myself into this mess!!! My friend Jessi is an avid runner... and when I say avid I mean CRAZY runner! Her and some friends are going to do the 13 mile marathon in Disneyland... So, I originally agreed to just go and watch... you know Disneyland is one of my most favorite places on earth!!! and some how some way I am now running!!! What??? I know are you crazy? are you serious? Why would someone choose to do this and torture yourself if you don't have to? I ask myself this every time I hit the running trail! Well, I have completed my 2nd week... and I HATE it!!! Well, the shin splints were killing me and then I got he 5:30am wake up call of leg cramps that lasted for DAYS! I am a little excited ( I wont admit that anywhere else but here!!) if I can complete this goal and accomplish somethin major I will be so incredibly proud of myself. I have captain Jessi pushing me and my wonderful husband who goes to the gym with me! I just don't get how natural it looks when he runs? I almost think he enjoys it!!! So, a reason to shop...I went and got some new running shoes! to help with the shin splints! and yes they helped... ( and I also got another pair of new shoes on that shopping spree! Can't complain!!!) some snazzy running socks, an armband for my ipod and for Valentines day Ronnie had gotten me some new earphone for my ipod... so I have it all???? To make this 13 mile journey easy RIGHT???? Oh, and a running book too! ( Yes, all my tools in the above picture!!!) But, I have been a little lazy this week... There is just not enough time in the day to get everything done and run... so I have been bad this week... So, It's Sunday and I should go RUN! RIGHT! Well, I did get a really nice pedicure today... I don't want to mess it up!!!
Wish Me Luck!!!!
