6.2

-
Today I am supposed to run 6.2 miles. My first virtual race. My first run over an hour. My first run in 90 degrees (yes, two days ago it was 55 here and today it's supposed to be 90- thanks Mother Nature for that one). My first run where I'll need water (and will be carrying Moose's Lightening McQueen waterbottle because I'm cool like that).

The first run where I just don't feel like it. But some time today I will get my butt into gear and do it. However, Big A has to work at his full-time job this morning and is planning on working at his new part-time job (helping out some farmers) this afternoon. So when I will run is beyond me. I hate not knowing when I can run. This isn't a run I can get in on a treadmill during naptime. And it's one I'd rather not do on a treadmill at all but I'll do it if I need to.

Good luck inthe heat! It's supposed to be close to 90 here too. I can't believe we'll be getting the kids' pool out this weekend, crazy!

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read...

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp...
