Five on Friday

WOW!  It's Friday already?  I'll take it. I'm linking up with the ladies for 5 on Friday!!  

1.  First and foremost, I'd like you to pray for my Papaw and Mamaw, my Papaw went into the hospital last Saturday after his appendix ruptured, they could not due surgery and remove his appendix b/c he has 11, yes you read that right, 11 heart stints.  My Papaw is a tough cookie and my Mamaw is never far from his side.... Well after days of being in the hospital she started having chest pain yesterday and was admitted and is awaiting test today.  So if you don't mind, please take a second to stop and say a prayer for them both.  Thank you!  

2.  This week I'm finally able to run more and I finished Physical Therapy Monday night, without having insurance that sucker cost me a little over $1,000 for a month, yep you read that right.  But since it helped it's well worth the $$ I spent.

3.  Kitchen renovation is in full swing, it is a long process and Dad and I are doing all the work ourselves, so it's taking a little longer.  In two weeks we go pick-up the cabinets and the appliances were delivered yesterday.  YAY   This kitchen was a mess and they definitely were not the brightest in their ideas of back splash and how to do it.. I cut my hand up trying to scrape all that clue off.  

4.  This girl has been pottying like crazy lately and I'm sure hoping that in June we can spend 3 days on house arrest and bust through the diapers once and for all.  I've been ready this book on potty training in 3 days and I sure hope it works for Millie. 

5.  We're headed to Nashville three weeks from today for me to tackle my first half marathon {eek} I'm so excited, but at the same time I'm very nervous.  

Happy Friday!!! 

Five on Friday

{One}

I started my Fleet Feet Half Marathon Training Group Wednesday night, I have to say I think I have asked one too many questions.  I'm a thinking and I like to make sure that I'm doing things correctly.  I will say, I must work on my breathing while running and where to position my arms, I have the hardest time with breathing through my mount and not my nose.  How does one reteach themselves this?

{Two} 

This weekend, I have a to do list a mile long, I must finish unpacking my guest bedroom, I'm so tired of seeing so many boxes in there.  I hate moving and unpacking.

{Three}

I signed up for another Half, Nashville will not be my first official half any longer, I've signed

up for the Germantown Half, a mere three weeks before Nashville.  {I may be crazy} 

{Four}

I may be a little bow obsessed, I'm so OCD and when we loose misplace a bow I freak out,

so what better way to remedy this than to order a "backup set" of bows.   A girl can't have

too many, can she? 

{Five}

  I'm on the hunt for a table for the entry of my house, I found one I like, but not sure that I'm

  just in love with it and I refuse to pay a lot for something if I'm not just "set" on it. 

Happy Friday Ladies,

Meredith 

Five on Friday

Today I'm linking up for five on Friday.

With only five days till Christmas and not having done all my shopping you will find me tomorrow running around like a chicken with her head cut off.  I blame it on Motherhood, it keeps you busy.

I have my third 5k tomorrow, the Ugly Sweater Run, I'm excited but our weather forecast is calling for ran, lets hope they're wrong or it at least holds of till afterwards.

We're having our first Christmas get together with my Father, Mother and sisters and their families Sunday night, I can't wait to see the difference in Millie this Christmas and last Christmas.  There is just something about watching Christmas through your child that is just so amazing and leaves such a feeling of over you.

My house is in desperate need of some attention, I must finish wrapping the presents and get them all under the tree. 

I've really enjoyed our 25- books of Christmas Advent calendar with Millie, I have to say that I'm really looking forward to do this each year with her.  What a great investment the money that I spent on these wonderful children's Christmas books that we can use over and over for years to come.  

(5) Visit Natasha, Darci, April and Christina and link up. 

Merry Christmas, Meredith
