I think my boss is trying to kill me

No, not really. Wednesday was just a really really really busy day at work, especially after I'd been on vacation since last Friday. And had an amazing time on vacation, by the way.

Thank you Leslee and Adam, for letting come and visit once again. Thanks for letting me meet your friends, too! Now I have new blogging buddies (I'm looking at you, Jamie), and some new Facebook friends.

Today was the last day of classes at ECU. All of the art students applying for submission will be bombarding my store now until Monday. We'll need coffee, if anyone wants to donate or send ;)

I get to have dinner tomorrow night with my parents, grandmother and aunt (who came all the way from Delaware)! Getting together with family is always fun! And next week, I'll be going home so I can go ride with my parents on their motorcycles for their annual fundraiser.

I need to start running again next week. I have another 5k in May, this one for my church. I've taken like, 2 weeks off. I have like, 3 weeks to get ready. Thankfully I've already taken care of some distance running to get in shape. Now its just maintenance and endurance. I'd like to shave off some time this next go 'round.

I have to open tomorrow, and then close on Saturday. So.....I'm going to bed soon! Goodnight!

Closing the Semester

Hello friends! Long time no blog! While I haven't been posting very much, I have been enjoying reading your updates.

This Saturday, April 10th, Lara and I will be running in the Lace Up For the Cure 5k, which raises money for the American Cancer Society. I'm excited, but also a little nervous. I haven't had the chance to run outside this season, I've been running inside on the track and on the treadmill at the ECU Rec Center. But I got some better running shoes, so I should be alright. I'm not trying to be super competitive, however I will be keeping track of my time.

So if you're in the praying mood, please pray for safety for all involved (and maybe some good weather too).

Also, my parents will be leaving on Wednesday for their (annual now) 5 day motorcycle trip to the NC mountains. They want to ride The Tail of the Dragon, but part of its closed due to the rock slides. Yes. My parents have motorcycles, in case you didn't know.


And............my sister is leaving on tour for MACU this weekend and will be gone for a week. I'm sure she'd appreciate some prayers too.
