Monday Monday

I started my 5 AM love affair with running this morning and couldn't be happier. I have less than 40 days until Kenni and I embark on our adventure. I want to be healthy and somewhat fit...hell lets not start off with lies. I WANT TO LOOK GOOD IN MY SUIT ON THE BEACH!!!!!
Lastnight I could see the excitement in Kenni's face and I couldn't be happier. Cheers to the new week and all that it brings and the hopes of turning my new affair into and obsession!

Dress For Success

Fun group of successful ladies...super lucky to share the table with such a fabulous crew. The odd man odd in back is Steven and he belongs to my bestie :)
Awe...me and my bestie
Suzie my date and I with Holly and her love interest Steven.
Suzie you were the best date ever!
Suz a little bit it looks like you are trying to take my dress off?????

I had so much fun getting dressed up to support such a good cause. Listening to some of the stories the ladies shared were absolutely heartbreaking and made me look inward as to what I could do the help the cause further. I'm so lucky to have such a wonderful support system of amazing strong, independent women. We have been through so much and have lifted each others spirits in good times and in bad....We are family and I am thankful!

I really want one of these!!!!!

So it's monday and there is so much to accomplish...uggg! There is a light at the end of the tunnel, I mean week thank goodness. I am going to the Dress For Success fashion show...yeah me! Can't really shake a stick at an even with good friends, good food for a good cause.

Kenni says to me today...mom, I had a great day at school I am "Fact Master" incase you were wondering and lacrosse practice was tons of fun! By the way Katie is bringing cheese for everyone at practice on Wednesday to celebrate her birthday. That's right mom you heard me Katie is cutting the cheese at practice.
I heart my little love bird and all her little quirky updates!

So I'm moving and stepping out of my comfort zone to experience life....SCARY! I can't remember the last time I did something for the first time. I am comfortable and safe here and think it's about time that I step to the edge and feel that feeling. You know that feeling of your heart thumping and your palms sweating and your mind thinking what the hell happends next. Then you take a deep breath and come to terms with whatever is holding you back from taking that next step and make the decision to let it go and move past it so you can move forward. The decision to stop letting the past affect your future...this is what I want!
I think it will not only make me a better person but a better mom as well.

Until Next Time.....

I love this face.....

This face is why I put my big girl panties on this morning and got ready for work with a smile! My goal for the day is to focus on the things I have control over and let everything else roll with the tide. Sometimes you have to give up a little control and let other people swim on their own. No worries I'll dive in if needed I can't just watch them drawn!
Cheers to a fabulous day!!!!!
