Pickles, ketchup and Rootbeer on tap! Doesn’t get any better than that!

Getting on my Nerves! December 17, 2010
Has anyone else ever had Sciatica Pain? I’ve been dealing with this for months now, and I can’t figure out what it is, and more importantly, how to get rid of it! At first I thought I had a slipped disc or something in my spine. Then I thought it could be from running. But I’m pretty sure I have something pinching my sciatica nerve.
I can’t sit still because my whole leg is aching in pain. It’s really distracting me from whatever I’m doing. I lay in bed at night for hours because I just can’t make the pain go away. The only thing that helps is rolling around on a tennis ball on the bedroom floor for an hour.
Will this go away on it’s own? Help!!!
One for you…One for Me! December 15, 2010
I definitely shopped myself out this year for the holidays. I had a list and I fiercely plowed through it bouncing from store to store at each opportunity. I have to say, I’m a little burnt out now. It’s easy to forget what the holidays are really all about sometimes.
And I’m totally guilty of buying myself a couple of treats on some of my excursions. (I never really do that!) This week, I got myself a new sweater, some cozy slippers…

And this sweet Christmas Card tree (Irving’s request). 
I had the ‘one for you, one for me’ syndrome this year!

But now, I’m SUPER excited to go home for Christmas and see my family and my East Coast friends!

Tonight, I had a few girls over to scrapbook with me. I was really excited because Girl’s Night In is always a blast. The scrapbook paper, stickers and scissors came out and before we knew it, four of us were chatting away cutting, cropping and creating!

But I just wasn’t feeling inspired tonight. Maybe I was just a wee bit tired, but mostly, I was frustrated that I couldn’t find the photos and pieces I wanted to work with tonight. I think I need to reorganize and clean up my craft closet a little bit. I’ll make that a New Year’s resolution.
And I promise, I will definitely share my Wedding Album when it’s complete. It’s |this close| to being done!
Christmas is almost a week away!!! Wow, that really snuck up on me this year!
What will they come up with next? December 13, 2010
I’ve seen some good race perks in my running days…. but this one takes the cake!
I’m running the Phoenix Rock N Roll Half Marathon in January, and the race directors just sent out this email to participants. Anyone who has ever ran a race before knows how valuable this prize is!

Tell me… Would you pay $100 to have real toilets in a race?
Dressed in Christmas Best December 12, 2010
Last night, we went to another Christmas Party, and got all dolled up for the occasion. I love getting ready for dinner parties. I like to watch Irving put on his tie and pick out his shoes. I love putting music on and dancing around while putting everything together. Makes me feel grown up.



All we need is some mistletoe!

The most wonderful time of the year!
