Running

I am going to blog about running. First of all, it sucks. I sometimes find it enjoyable, but with that being said, I still don't like it. "Why are you doing it then?" You may ask-
I am running because I feel the need to strengthen my lungs!! No, really its just to stay in shape. Especially when DDIP is on a month break!! Running did keep the stress level down a little bit and it also made me feel better about eating all those peanut butter balls. CAn we talk about the high maintenance it involves? Shall we?

1.) The right pair of sneakers. DOn't have these on your feet, have fun feeling every part of your nasty pulled, ripped, cracked muscle known to your body.

2.) The RunWear. This means clothes. AND UNDERWEAR/panties/delicates What clothes are you going to run in? You need to be comfortable, yet still look somewhat decent because what if you run into someone you know? two things here.
* if you run into someone while you are running, skip these and go see an eye doctor. :) The other thing- who cares what you look like!! MOst of the time while you are running, your face is making all sorts of ugly, therefore I highly doubt people will be looking at your clothes. Also, people are more surprised by the stupidity of why you are running. I remember in my off running, exercise days- I use to drive past people who ran. I would always say to myself, "poor bastard. Doesnt have a car."

Now ((I think))- I have master what to wear and what not to wear. This was a lot of trial and error as I would pick wedgies, pull up my pants, pull down my pants, pull down my shirt, pull out my shirt. Stop and fix my socks sometimes take off my socks. I mean this sh*# is frustrating when all you are trying to do is run! I probably lost more calories mastering the clothes than I have mastering running.

3.) Music. Oh Gosh..... I love music of all kinds, I really really do. But when you are crying while you are running listening to Delilah or worse, anything by Air Supply- again maybe you should go to counseling and not run. For an example. I like to imagine the Jersey Shore Cast pumping their fists next to me as I run while I listen to their soundtracks. At least while I run, I can work on my fist pumps, push ups, chapstick. *Reference Jersey Shore if that doesnt make sense.

4.) To bring a pet or not bring a pet that is the question. I mean really, why would I leave my dog here while I go run? That's not really fair. He needs to get out too. Here is the thing- 110pd lab who walks fine, after he sniffs all FBI wanted People in posters, all the Drug Lords of Europe and finds the remains of residue from someones bacon grease that they poured outside their house from 1950's. THEN he is a great dog to run with. He is improving. (his sniffing)

5.) Direction and distance..... Thank God for the iphone because I can annoy people on facebook and all the non runners that bee bach is running again. I can hear the encouragement now.

"Honey, our lovely and talented BEe BAch is running again." "Oh that is so swell of her -good for her and her motivation." ~PAtrick and Susan Oneil

Then there are the people who delete my post every time I run.

"F*984590 Y &*(&98u Bitch Bach. I hate when you F*&!#6 *j post this Sh*! On Facebook." ~anonymous but I'm pretty sure I know who you are.


I mean seriously, why would you NOT want to run everyday?!?!

Magic and Jokes...

My sister is town. I haven't said anything because she wanted it to be a secret, but now that she is here, its ok! She surprised my children and she did it very creatively. Lacey and Aunt Laura skype...ALOT. Lacey will make up jokes, and Aunt Laura will make up magic tricks. That is always a guaranteed through a conversation of skype.

Laceys joke: KNock Knock! Who's There? Ya. Ya Who? Dot com (Lacey made that up all by herself) cracks me up

Laura's magic trick.

Aunt Laura: Lacey I see you have a snickers by your computer. Can I have some? How about you put it through the computer and give me one.

Lacey: Aunt Laura, you can't do that.

Aunt Laura: Yes you can its magic. Ready?

Me: Yeah Lacey we will show you ready?

Aunt Laura: Abracadabra......

I put the snickers up to the web cam and at the same time Aunt Laura pulls out the snickers from her web cam. Priceless.



Its an ongoing game between the two of them. What makes this surprise any different??? (7am in the morning)

Lacey is doing a lot better mentally/emotionally. Her school counselor is working wonders for her little self esteem. I am still looking for a child psychologist. None have called me back, but I am still looking. Daylen is so supportive of her. The other day she had trouble finding our elf of the shelf, Elphie, (Ph for Philly) and of course Daylen found him right away. She said quietly, I can' see him. He grabbed her hand and walked her to the way of the elf. Yes, I had a moment and he saw me and said, "MOOOOOM." I give some credit to myself for raising such a sweet little boy, but not all the credit can go to me. This little boy just has a big heart.

With everything that is going on today- I hope that the doctor tells us some good news something like:

• its not stargardts disease
  
• laceys vision will get better
• surgery will fix this *****

I just want my daughter to not have struggle, but I hope course I am grateful that it is not cancer or a tumor. But still, every parent (most of us) wants the best for their children. I am no different. She is my little unique beautiful daughter. I love her.

Here we go...
