Fast Running Mommy

I had a great weekend. I got to go camping with my kids and freeze to death and not sleep...why do people go camping...all the experts I talked to say that it gets better the rest of the trip. By the second third or fourth night you are so exhausted that you can sleep on rocks with scorpions climbing over you..hmm...sounds fun. 

I got to have most of my family over to my house for the first time in a long time. I loved being hostess and having a nice time with them. They are a fun bunch.

I got to play my flute with the ward choir and after practicing it a thousand times I was so happy to finally play it and express myself on a beautiful instrument.

I got to give a talk in sacrament meeting and really enjoyed that.

After doing everything the best part was to come back to my kiddos and be glad that I've chosen dishes of peach cobbler and stories and looking and the stars and disciplining and brushing teeth and all those things to anything else I could have chosen. I think I'm the luckiest lady in the world....and maybe the toughest. :)   

I'm getting excited to not be pregnant anymore..and to be able to move again. Slow and easy wins the race. Gotta go get the kids ready for the day. :)

Tried to pick up the pace a tiny bit but I just can't...weird feeling. Had a dream I was single again and kissing a guy that I used to like. Sasha just laughs when I tell him dreams like that because he knows it's innocent. I am always faithful to him in my dreams...that is comforting. I used to dream I was going to marry someone else but I would always remember at the last second that I was married to Sasha and choose him over the other guy. 

Theme for the day....don't die running.....Sasha tripped and landed on his chest. He tried to get up and run but his heart wasn't working. He had to lay down and catch his breath. Then he comes home and tells me he was wondering if he'd have to have his running partner call an ambulance for a second there. There is a strange thing that can happen to people.If they hit a certain part of their chest with enough force it can kill them. So nobody fall down and die running...please.  

Huh...I posted this yesterday...or so I thought. I was musing about how funny it is for people to tell me in order of a compliment, "You don't look pregnant from behind." 

I guess it's my nit picky pregnant brain but where's the logic in that statement. Do you know women who look pregnant from behind? Or even better...do you see women who look pregnant from behind and then turn around and aren't and you are surprised?  

Nice and easy..tried to talk a neighbor into doing my run for me. 

We have some avid runners for neighbors around the corner. Nice people.  

I'm doing another crazy thing this weekend...although not quite as crazy as last weekend...I think I'll dub that weekend "the busiest weekend of my life"

I got the idea to let my kids run a yard sale as an educational experience. Normally I just give items we don't use anymore to the local thrift store. We don't have a lot to sell and we aren't very close to main roads so we'll see if we sell anything...
