HAPPY TUESDAY!!!! I
hope you're all having a great week so far.
Have you looked outside lately?
The leaves are falling and the sun is shinning!! It really is fall, so go out and enjoy. When I was wee little lady with my sweet
bowl cut (yup, you read that right), my sisters and I use to rake leaves for my
grandma. Instead of first putting in
piles, big seester (shout out to Christie! Woop!) would use the leaves to
create lines to outline a house. So, we
would have different rooms to play.
It's no wonder she is on the road to becoming an interior
designer/architect.
Take my advice, go out and jump in some leaves!! Make sure you wear padding though; you make
hop on a stick. That could ruin the
party for everyone.
Today's theme is...NEVER GIVE UP!! I yell this point, not because I am mad at
you, but because I love you. :-) I
actually need to yell at myself right now.
I am just at the 3-week mark when the Philly Half Marathon intends to
rock my world. Yes, it's actually going
to happen. I know...I am surprised
too! I feel completely unprepared. Will people laugh at me if I have to stop,
will they snub me if I can't finish?
(Just like Michael Scott in the 5k race for rabies) I am nervous, and all I want to do is give
up because I don't feel like dealing with any of this. Then the reality of finishing the race kicks
in. I have come a long way from the
beginning of training. Before training,
I was never able to run a mile with out stopping; now I can run 8 miles!! This is a huge feet for me. Every time I run, I over come the urge to
stop...every run is a small battle. My
body CAN accomplish this run, my dome just wants to be funny and play tricks on
me by trying to convince me that I am tired and need to give up. Giving up would be the easiest thing to do,
but the tough part is actually going through with the race. However, the sweetness here is when I am
done, the sense of real accomplishment will be MINE! Well, until my next race.
What is life without pushing yourself a little?? The only way to find your passions in life is to try
things that may make you uneasy. That's
because they are new and exciting. The
only way I can get through this is with my friend WP (shout out to Wayne ooo
OOO). Since he has been through this
before, he's been guiding me along the way.
You need to have those friends who can be there when you feel like giving
up. They have a clear, outside
perspective, and that's what I need right now.
Sometimes you need a little boost, and your friends and family are there
to booster you up!!
Last night in Game 5 of the World Series, Philadelphia
proved my point of never giving up.
The Phillies are down 3-1, and could easily give up to finish the
series...but guess what...THEY WON!! I was
talking to, aheeem, not naming any names, but this person said 'Ahh I'd rather
have them just lose this game tonight to get it over with.' I say "NAY", what's the fun in that??
Hold strong in those times when you feel like giving up...try
to think in future tense. Think of how
wonderful it will be in the end when you complete the task at hand. Life isn't all sun and fun, there are times
when it gets tough and you must push through.
These experiences will only make you stronger!! It's so easy sometimes for me to try and
give advice...but right now I have to use my words and push forward. November 22 will be here very fast, and all
I can do is prepare as much as possible.
I can't wait till the minute I finish the race, I am sure I will have a
great Smile-lution that day :-)
I leave you with this on this BEAUTIFUL fall day...
"Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to
do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell
apart, that's true strength."
I hope you have a great day!! Remember to challenge yourself; one day those challenges may
become a routine.
Love you!

Busty big tits are the most important asset on a girl, intelligence is great but in order to enjoy it you will to need to have long conversations. If you are into that then wonderful, talk all you want, but nothing beats a chick with busty big tits, she can talk all day and you can fake like you're paying attention while you slap'em around (gently).

I've got always liked the Peanut Buster Parfait however I used thus disappointed. Initial of all it was much smaller than they was and they were chinsy on the peanuts and there was something wrong with the chocolate fudge sauce, it was completely different in a bad manner( type of bitter and bland).
