Today’s Pic of the Day: 

Back to back 10k’s.  Today was the Lost Dutchman run.  I went into this run knowing that I would do what I could whether I finished or not.  This race was and out and back so it would have been easy to turn around at any point. 
But I didn’t need to.  Surprisingly, I felt pretty good the whole run.  (I walk lol)

Today was the Mesa Marathon 10k.  I was worried about being able to do it because it was a point to point run and I’d have to be able to get to the end once I started. 
But I was able to do it.  Slow, but not much pain, so I was happy about that.  




I got two medals at the run today because if you did the Phoenix Marathon 10k and the Mesa Marathon 10k you earned a special medal.  The Desert Double.

Jill and her partner took gold in their division.

A couple of days ago Kev sees this reel on Instagram about this new dessert at Costco and we both think we should get it and try it.  I was at Costco today and picked it up.  I was really hoping I would taste it and be….OMG this is amazing.  And honestly it wasn’t amazing.  Both Kev and I thought it was ok.  It was good but it’s a one and done for both of us.

Alicia sent me pics of the kids today with the outfits they picked out for school pictures.  





As of January 2009, I no longer have a job. It's not that I lost it, but after 26 1/2 years of working at the Post Office, I retired. According to everyone I know, I don't do anything all day, so I decided to start a blog. Now I can blog about what I don't do all day. I am married to Kevin, who is the most awesome husband I could ever have. It's because of him, that I do not go to work any more. I love that and I love him for that. Between the 2 of us we have 4 children. Hunter 31, Heather 29, Paul 28 and Alicia 26.
