What's your song

This song is on my "workout" playlist! I love it and I have it set up to play toward the end of my workout to give me that extra push I need!!! Its really more about the beat then the words... its just kinda motivating!!!

What's your favorite workout song?  Do you have one that gets you super motivated and helps you finish strong?

Head over to Goodnight Moon and link up for her music party this week!!!

Muse "Supermassive Black Hole"

What's your song

Ok so this is the first time I have really attempted something like this but it looks like fun and I LOVE LOVE these guys and just have to share!!!

Today I am linking up with Goodnight Moon for her dance party link up and I cant wait to hear all the songs picked!!! I guess the Grammy's were about two weeks ago and for the first time in years J and I actually sat down and watched... glad we did because it was the first time I have ever heard Mumford & Sons and I was instantly in LOVE!!! J being the music man he is of coarse new about them and was super excited because the next day I was like "lets just buy the whole album on itunes"!!! I cant stop playing the entire thing over and over and it was super hard to pick a song but here is one of my faves!!!


Mumford & Sons "White Blank Page"


If we do this next week I might just have to share another!!!

Hope you enjoy and go link up with Amber!!!!

Why is this SO hard???

I have been racking my brains for the past week and I can NOT come up with a tittle for this blog and it is driving me CRAZY! I have been reading other blogs for inspiration but nothing is happening... it just makes it worse because I don't understand why I am having this mental block?  All of you have such witty and cute names for your blogs and I cant seem to find one that fits!

This whole process has me questioning why I am even blogging. I am not that interesting...

Lately all I have been writing about is running and my funk ( I am feeling much better)! Maybe I just need a break! Just some time away from the computer/tv/iphone to refocus!

I have been sucked into this world of facebook and email and it has a hold on me and I need to get away... it started when J deployed the first time, when I sat and waited for phone calls or emails and now it is just part of a routine! Phone always on and close by and checking email and fb 8 million times a day, its ridiculous.

That's what I am going to do, take a break from technology! I really don't have a time table for this but until next time...

Up-hill Battle

 Running around our neighborhood is the hardest thing I have ever done!!!

We live in a very hilly neighborhood and it feels like it is ALL up-hill! I started week three today and it was two cycles of 90sec run/ 90sec walk then 3min run/ 3 min walk and the last 3 min run almost did me in!!! But I am happy to say I did not stop and actually finished it!

I also push M around in the double jogger (hopefully the hills and the stroller burn a few extra calories), thankfully N rides his bike around b/c I wouldn't be able to push him too! I did try once but only made it about half way up a hill and I was toast. So we turned around and I bribed him with a cookie to ride his bike!!!

Shocking right?

I had to bribe him because about a month ago he had a big crash going down hill and he has been afraid ever since! He got a little big for his britches and was zooming down the hill and started wiggling his handle bars and BOOM, CRASH!!!   Gave himself a black eye and gave up the bike, but now that I am running and J is not always available to push we had to work something out and a cookie did it! He still wont go down that hill but we are working on it!

Prayers For Logan

My very good friend over at Goodnight Moon is raising money and prayers for a little boy who has been diagnosed with cancer, stage 4 Wilms Tumor!

So when you get a chance go check out her blog about Logan!



Name???

I hate the name of my blog! It makes me mad and then I don't want to post anything because of the ridiculousness of it!!! So I really need to come up with something new and creative, but I am not sure just where I want to go with it. I don't know if I want this to be a family blog (about the happenings of our life) or a diary/journal like blog about my days???

So until I decide please be patient with me! How did you come up with the name for your blog?
