November 27.. the year is nearly over. Quite hard to imagine how fast it has flown by.. it has been quite a roller coaster ride for me.. phyiscally,mentally and more emotionally than i like to admit.. the newness, the changes, the decisions, the consequences.. wow ! I am believing that 2011 is MY year..eager to see how the New Year starts.. as last NYE was a one of a kind moment !
My baby boy is turning 2 in two weeks, seems like only yeasterday he was my little munchkin sitting in a high chair. He learned independence really well ! He is a strong-willed child to say the least. His words are becoming clearer.. MINE and NO seem to be an all time favorite. Andon is stoke for Christmas, all the gadgets and gizmos we see on tv ( late night infomercials are his favorite ).. This Christmas will be very different than the last, it will be the first year that it's just me and my boys..
I myself am trying to sort things out, figure out stuff and i find myself questioning so many times.. WHY DO BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE. A dear friend of mine is battling breast cancer AGAIN, this time it is much worse.. She is woman that would do ANYTHING for ANYONE.. she loves all people ! I myself am dealing with this whole thing called DATING ! I will be the first to say.. it SUCKS ! I am learning patience, not to settle too soon.. the "right" person does exist ( or so I have been told that he does ).. I have found a whole lot of MR.WRONGS ! The liars/cheaters/fear of commitment.. yep,met them already ! Time to just focus on me.. good things come to those who wait !
We have relocated ( again, for those of you who know how i like to move ! ). I think is the LAST move for quite a while..the boys and I are content where we are now.. daycare/school/family are all close by.. the mornings are less chaotic now ! School is going well for Andon. He has learned so much, earned a certificate for being VERY RESPECTFUL ! Torin loves daycare, and I see him learning so much too.. his new thing is Pee-Pee.. he is aware of peeing in his diaper.
Halloween has passed us by, we enjoyed the Funkstown Parade as IronMan and a giraffe. Thanksgiving has quickly come and gone.. We enjoyed the day with family and friends, lots of good food and fun ! I ran the HCC Turkey Trot, wasnt feeling to motivated when I looked out the window at the weather.. but I vowed I would go do it..just because..
Well, as we started I figured that if I am going to do it.. I should give it my all.. make the most of it.. push a little harder, break out of the comfort zone.. and I did just that. I ran my fastest 5k ever.. faster than my high school/college days.. faster than on an 85 degree day in June.. I hit my mile split at 7:30 and thought omg I better slow down.. but somehow I kept it up and finished in 23:45 ! I am very proud of that ! I am hoping to get back to training for a half/full marathon.. I want to RUN a marathon, not just complete one...
The last few months I have reconnected with friends I have not seen or talked to in 10+ years.. it is so crazy, thanks be to Facebook once again.. what did we do before Facebook and text messages.. I cant remember that far back, haha ! It is amazing how a simple text message can change my mood or attitude.. phone calls seem to be RARE these days.. :-)
At 30.. I keep finding more and more out about ME. I feel like I now need to put some things back in order and keep pushing onward.. I cant get too far looking behind me..I am thankful for all my friends and family, who have been there to help me through this year of CHANGE ! I am thankful, that at the end of the day.. no matter how good or bad it was, that i can come home to the sounds of Mama.. and a big hug and kiss ! These boys are MY life !
