this weekend…

So you probably won’t hear from me until Monday or Tuesday…I’m taking a little bloggy break and don’t have blog posts built up this week.

{Side note: I often pre-write blog posts and schedule them to appear through out the week. I don’t blog every day. In fact, it’s probably only a few days a week and I just bust out a few posts at a time}

horizontal I’m super excited about my first ever 5k. I know, you’re sick of hearing it. But really…I never thought I would ever be able to build up to run 3 miles in a row. Wow. When I started ‘training’ for this a few months ago, I could barely run 5 minutes at a jogging pace before I wanted to walk. Now, I’m confident in that I can meet my goal of running all three miles…no stopping, no walking. And I think I can do it under 35 minutes.

Hopefully I can check in via text blogging and let you know if I did it!

Last thought…who’s IN for documenting your week next week? Check out Ali’s blog for all her pre-planning and fun downloads. I’m not as pre-planned. I’ve thought a tiny bit about it. I have just a few goals this year:

*Document our life from Sunday to Saturday (she’s starting on Monday but I wanted to include our big race so I’m starting it Sunday)

*Do not buy anything new. I have several divided protectors in my stash and PLENTY of scraps and bits of stuff to do this. I’m not doing 4 pages a day and putting it in it’s own album like Ali is. I will include it in my regular 2010 album as part of our year.

*Document a few bits of life each day. I’m feeling out the process this year so I’m not going to beat myself up if I don’t get it all. I do need to start a list tonight or tomorrow about things I don’t want to miss.

I’ll share more about my process and actual pics from the week starting Monday or Tuesday…

Happy Weekend!

  2. you've had me thinking about the Week in the Life w/ Ali all weekend...I may have to do this too! But I'm waiting until May. Olivia's birthday is on Weds & her party is on Sat so I don't want it to be a week about her :)
