Test Drive

My new running shoes arrived today.  Yay!  BLING for the feet!  I LOVE THEM!!!  So much fun to get the package after a long, tedious day at work.  I took them out for a "test run" - just 2 miles - after getting the kids to bed.  They felt great- so lightweight.  My feet normally ache after running no matter how short the distance and these are padded in all the right places- no aching feet!

The kids were thrilled that we stopped at the McDonald's drive-thru after I picked them up from daycare.  (Yes- received the Mother of the Day award yet again!)  They received Star Wars tops in their Happy Meals and had a great time demonstrating them for Grandpa Cliff and Grandma Dixie while on Skype this evening.  (D & C- thanks ever so much for the adult conversation too!  I needed interaction with non-work-related adults!!!!) 

So, I ran a bit, showered, talked to Derek (he is alive and well in Bartlesville - very happy after eating a green chile cheeseburger at Frank and Lola's restaurant for dinner- I'm jealous!), then worked on work until 11pm.  FABULOUS!  Now I'm heading to bed.  My body is already shutting down, hopefully my brain will follow!
