2010: A Year in Review
I have so much to be thankful for and had so many amazing things happen in 2010. Here are just a few of my favorite things I did/saw/heard/wore/accomplished/experienced:
T’s brother and his family moved closer. While they’re still about 45 minutes away, I’m glad he has family close, and I hope we get to see them more in 2011.
I traveled a lot this year, to some really neat...

By this time on Sunday I will be able to say that I have run three and a HALF marathons, but nothing, not even bragging rights, will keep me moving toward the finish line like an iPod full of carefully-picked jams. Make fun of me all you want, but remember, I'll be the one running for (not quite) two hours on a below-freezing January morning.

Isn't it funny?
Almost all of my favorite Christmas gifts that I received were handmade! I am so blessed.
Question:
I’m taking a mini-trip and also attending a conference in Chicago in late January.
2 Questions:
WHAT SHOULD I DO?
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

For Posterity:
Sadly, I was having too much fun just being with the ones I loved on Christmas Eve, and forgot to take a picture of my outfit.
However, it was so fabulous that I may repeat it for New Year’s Eve! Here’s a preview, if you can picture it:
Short, satin turquoise dress from Banana Republic, Fall 2007
Black leggings
Black sailor-type, double-breasted black cardigan from Banana...
I did it!
I just registered to run the OKC Memorial Half-Marathon on May 1, 2011.
Let the training begin!

one forty plus: Happy Holidays →
jhnmyr:
When you see a string of lights in some perfect sequence of colors,
or when you hear a Christmas song that makes you joyful and somber at the same time,
that’s the work of dozens of Holiday memories coming together.
That’s the collective memory of many Holidays’ past.
There are kids out there…

“Well, we’ll be looking forward to that, Greg.”

Fun Fact: the first Christmas we were dating, T and I were apart for 3 weeks while he went home for break. We communicated solely by texting quotes from Meet the Parents for at least a week. It’s still one of the memories that makes us bust out laughing.

So far, my Christmas menu consists of:
Pimento Cheese
Dinner Rolls
And The Pioneer Woman Cinnamon Rolls (for breakfast Christmas morning)
Cheese and Carbs for me please!
(*All items being ordered courtesy of MarketC. That’s right, I’m not even making my own rolls. After 2 Thanksgiving FEASTS, I deserve to order food.)
