Long time no blog

Yikes...it's been a while since I blogged!.....I'm in the beginning stages of the college search with a son who's starting to look......also TRACK season has started for two of my kids.......my daughter joined a club soccer team (need I say more).........my youngest has a huge STATE project due soon...........plus, I was getting ready for my next race......which happens to be tomorrow!!!!  I'm running a local Half Marathon (13.1 miles) with 5 friends......I had my boys do rock-paper -scissors to see who would get my performance t-shirt (too masculine looking for my tastes.....plus, I don't love wearing logos, etc) ............we're meeting at my house at 6 am tomorrow.....my Jelly Belly Sport Beans are packed......so time for bed.....wish me luck!!!!!
