So, with the encouragement of my step-mom, Katie, I have decided that training for my first 5k would be a wonderful way to get some exercise and pump endorphins into my system! I recently signed up at about.com for their introduction to running your first 5k. I am currently not working out as much as possible, I use the Wii Fit or the Just Dance or the Jenny McCarthy Your Shape a couple times per week. This means that the first couple of weeks of my 8 week course are going to be difficult, but I should be able to maintain it :)
Worked out last night with Amanda, we did the Just Dance video game on the Wii, which I got for free from HouseParty.com. I broke a sweat one song in but did several others, Amanda whooped me even though I have played before. Tonight I am going to take off but I should go for my first run tomorrow while I am in Appleton :)
Keep coming back hopefully I will start to post pictures to go along with this!

Life and lemons...
So, it checks out that I have not shared with the internet in a while. I have had a few things go on since my last post! I moved back from Montana, spent a few weeks (like 8) unemployed in one of the worst hit cities in Wisconsin. I finally landed a great job at Herzing University Online. I am a re-entry specialist, helping students from all over get back into school! I spend most of my day looking at my computer screen and cursing my eyesite (yay for health, vision and dental insurance finally kicking in last week!). Gearing up for the January 6, 2010 start. Currently I have 14 students ready, and about that many wrapping things up :)
Jon and I had our engagement pictures taken when the weather was nice. Although we will not be getting married when I wanted because he had a shunt revision and the job that he found was crappy and they fired him (basically not literally) while he was in the hospital recovering from BRAIN surgery. We will now have to move our wedding date to sometime later.
While Jon was in the hopsital Jon's mom and I moved our entire apartment, with some help from our friends. We now reside in Wauwatosa, a suburb of Milwaukee, in a huge two bedroom apartment with Fiona. Fiona is a resuce cat, she is 7, almost 8 years old and finally coming out of her shell! She played with the "cat charmer" yesterday for the first time ever :) The apartment has a large eat-in kitchen, a formal dining room, a large living room, and two large bedrooms. Hardwood floors in almost every room, and subway tiles in the bathroom!!! We may be having a house warming party on the 8th of January instead of having our courthouse wedding...details yet to be decided.
Keep coming back more updates more frequently, I promise :)
