Life is just busy

I thought when I got finished with school, I would feel like I had all this "extra" time. Well, no such luck. The nights are filled with taking kids to practice, games, YM, scouts, work & whatever else life has thrown at us! But I love keeping busy, I just wonder somedays how do we fit all of these "things" into our day?

Tomorrow, my friend and I are running in a race in Helena it is the race for the cure. I am very excited, it should be great fun! We ran in this race a couple of years ago and I told her it was time we did it again. I was on the "intense" training program. I didn't do much running while I was doing my school work but a little motivation does great for this girl!

We had another baby calf too, but I haven't had a chance to get pictures yet.....so stay tuned pics to come. I'll post pics from our big race this weekend too!

Dave is playing in a b-ball tourney this weekend, so he'll be heading to Butte and I'll be heading to Helena! Such is life. :-)

Have a great weekend!

So, where have I been?

Hello! Wow, it's been a long time since I posted, so you ask...where have you been?
"Here, there & everywhere?"
And I say - "NO, mostly just crazy!"

AAAHHHHHH Ha ha!
In about the past 3 weeks since I posted last, I wrote 2 finals (about 25 pages long), finished all my classes and finished my Masters Program. Woot woot for me! I am sooo relieved.

But have you ever finished something that consumed so much of your time, you kind of feel lost? I told Dave it might take me a few weeks to decompress. For the past 17 months, I have taken 48 credits and have worried day in and day out....what should I be doing, should I be writing a paper, should I be reading.....what SHOULD I be doing??!! :-)

I'm starting to get over that feeling of being completely overwhelmed....I have managed to keep myself busy, everyday. It's like how did I have time for school. I still go to bed way too late but whatever! It is a hard habit to break.

So besides the kids keeping me completely crazy busy, I have decided to commit to running again, now that I have time. My bestest PAL and I are going to do a run in about 1 1/2 in Helena....so I'm doing some intense training but what else would I do with my time right? :-)

So here are the things on my list:
Run
Read
Watch movies

I have only done one of them so far...run!
I'll get to the reading (for fun) and wathing movies...I promise.

Who's ready for summer....besides me?
I am ready for bathing suites, late night, bonfires and daylight until 10pm.
I LOVE Summer! I love all that comes with summer, NO schedule, lack of commitment and the feeling of being carefree.
Maybe I'll teach the kids how to play Kick-the-can! i don't even remember how to, I'm gonna have to call Barbie and get the "recipe"! :-)

We got the 4-H pigs last Friday, so I've put some pics of the cute little buggars on here.
This might possibly one of the most random posts ever....but if you've ever met me, talked to me or know me at all.............does that really surprise you!
ha ha!

They are so cute and full of personality.....

Look at those HAMS! LOL

Have a great day, make it the TIME of your LiFe!
