FitBloggin'...Huh?



Hi. I'm the high strung blogger who can't sleep because she's so excited. Yep.

I only got lost 10 times.

So I was very late. Oh well. I was so nervous anyway. I was nervous about checking in, wearing ratty jeans and a pom-pom in my hair. Also 10 hours in a car-even with gum-gave me VeryBadBreath. Poor Check-In Girl. But you know, the hotel room was quiet and beautiful and I could do anything I wanted to at all.

So I sat down and got on the internet. Very happy.

Then, I got on Twitter. People at FitBloggin' were tweeting about being here. Which was sort of surreal. One of my very favorites, MrsFatass even asked where I was. Ohmygoodness. I tweetered back and before I knew it I was with her. And Steve. MrsFatass is a celebrity in my book. So nice, so friendly, so fabulous. Steve is an inspiration with his workouts. He does this torture called ARC trainer almost everyday. And he runs 5 miles outside. Which he claims is harder than the treadmill. I may have actually kicked the bottom of his chair. In a competitive pouty way.

And now after 3 hours of sleep, I just can't sleep anymore. I have the 5k FunRun in the morning. I'm hoping to do it all running. But I'm a little nervous that I won't be able to pace myself without my treadmill. And that it WILL be harder as Mr. [I'm so totally awesome] Steve. He would probably die, he is not like that at all. Just kidding Steve? He's going to kill me in the morning. Oh well, he won't have read this by then anyway.

Now that I have my thoughts out in cyberspace, maybe I can sleep.

By the way: I'm pretty sure I was obnoxious and annoying. So much for choosing how to behave.

    You can either post a pic of YOURSELF or I'm gonna find someone who will. Seriously, hope it's just the break you've needed and that you have all sorts of fun.

    Obnoxious and annoying? You? Here I thought "I" was the obnoxious and annoying one...which I kinda was..but I was drunk, so thats my excuse.

    Fitbloggin was awesome, I am so glad you were there. It was awesome meeting and hanging out with you...even if I didn't get a business card :-P

It's Here

We got the moving truck rather unexpectedly. It's more expensive than Mr. Survival planned, so we're doing a lot of lifting, cardio, and squats. No. We're not doing the bootcamp in a trailer. We ARE moving things to the new garage, since we can't move in yet, but they're being kind enough to let us dump in a storage manner. Sorry. I'll have to beg your forgiveness and promise to update you. Eventually.

Flying With Concrete

Today I wanted to write about my dreams. Full of hope and bliss and fulfillment. Yeah, I sound about as light as a bucket of cement. Ready to fly away. Hang on, while I toss out the top of the pile. Maybe that will help me find my lofty aspirations. Nope. Thing is, I'm remembering today that I'm afraid of heights. Really. Once Hubbend made me climb up three stories of scaffolding. Broke it all down for me and left me no other choice. Made me feel irreplaceable. Yes, we must remember that I am crazy friends. Leave it to me to feel important by being told to go up a towering structure of death. I did it though. And I even wired a speaker while I was up there. But I'm still afraid of heights. So. Do you wanna help me out today? For every comment that tells me something someone wants to be able to do that they can't do now I will do one minute of exercise. Really. Because of my child care situation, it will have to be tomorrow morning. So have at it. ...

Hippity Hop

I hope it doesn't matter that it's been a week or so since my post on her...but I do have a fabulous special needs daughter.   THIS   and   THAT   are my most recent musings on Special Needs parenting. I'm not sure what I think about either one. It's about being out in public.   Thanks to Sunday at Adventures in Extreme Parenthood   I can handle this blog hop on a week as crazy as this.  I'm excited to visit all these excellent blogs. Stay tuned next week though, for updates on Chickadee's G-tube surgery, moving and The Beast and it's sugar-free diet.  Thanks for playing along at home. I really couldn't do it without you all. Oh, and visit my Facebook Page to see how my weigh-in went this week for GAG.   **I just figured out that  Super Mommy to the Rescue  and Autism Learning Felt  are the sponsoring blogs.  Please follow them if you link up!
