I am doing it again. Last year, a whopping 8 months after the babes were born, I got the crazy idea to run a half marathon. I am not a runner. In fact, I quite despise running. The problem is, I quite like sugar and all other things that are terrible for me. So last year when I ran, the goal was to shed some of the 80 pounds I ate myself to (let's not kid ourselves- all of the heft we carry around we have happily eaten our way to, 16 pounds of baby or not) while my babes were incubating. This year the goal is to perhaps lose that last 5 I still can't shed and to get active again- caring for three one year olds and a man whom I swear has air leaking out of his ears leaves very little time to work out...in 156 days I will own that 13.1 miles! Indianapolis here I come!

    That's it...I'm starting my own blog where the coverage is fair and balanced - think of it as the NPR to your FOX News.

Thanks for writing and giving me a daily dose of God's precious gifts...Finley & Parker...as well as your wonderful humorous writing. I need to thank Ted once again for introducing me via the blog to you all. Have a wonderfully blessed Thanksgiving...and yes Brian I am looking forward to your blog!

    Brooke, you should become a writer. Have you ever thought of writing a book...a children's book perhaps. You would be great.

    Anyway, Chris will be running the Indy Mini again as well. Maybe we will have to look you up while you're here.

    Miss ya!
