Randomness and EM:ME

I'm tired ladies. Too many late nights. Too many Early mornings. And I'm missing all the T.V. shows I was so excited to watch!

The NCIS shows premiered last night. Tuesday night is Young Womens. Besides being the secretary, I'm also the Personal Progress leader. Last night we got the girls started on putting together their family history. It will be a neat thing for them to have, and to keep.

I'm working on mine as well...I'll have to tell you all about the Personal Progress program soon. I love it. For sure a lot more important than some T.V. shows!

Tonight it's So You Think You Can Dance. I'll have to miss it. It's our first School Town Hall Meeting of the year. I'm sure there will be A LOT of parents there, because of the recent announcement of the resignation of our school director. We love him. We will miss him. But he recently was given the amazing opportunity to be the DEAN of a college! He obviously can not pass this opportunity up. We are so proud of him, and excited for him, and feel so lucky to have had him leading our school for a time...but now the process of finding someone to replace him makes me tired to think about.

My kids are loving school. Today Bookworm gets to go to the Space Education Center and will be participating in a space simulation mission. He did it last year with his Discovery (awesome program our school offers) Crew, and said it was the coolest thing he'd ever done. They will be doing a different simulation this time. He won't be back at the school until 7 tonight! Then next week their class is doing an archeological dig!

Our school is so cool. I'm going to have to do a post sometime about our awesome programs.

For EM:ME hosted by my friend Amber...I just have this to say. I started running again - going with my mom, and taking my fat dog so she can get some exercise! Then I got the WORST freakin' chest cold! I mean, deep, painful coughing from the chest. You know the kind where there's no way you can run?

Yeah, that sucked. However, I did mostly lose my appetite and didn't eat much. Which could be a good thing, except I downed a TON of Dr. Pepper to help with my recovery! Oh, well - I'm still coughing, but I think I feel good enough to start running again...wish me luck!

I guess I'm pretty boring today...how's everything going with all you ladies?

Man, YOU are busy!!
And also making the Tutu's right?
I feel tired, probably feeling more busy than I am...definitely tired!

I ♥ Dr. Pepper! I hate it when I start a new work out plan. It seems something always messes up my plans. Last time I broke my toe...not fair that I got motivated to work out, and then hurt myself. Hope you feel better soon.

Oh take some time when you can for yourself. You are pretty busy. Never boring.

Poor Baby!
You sound too busy to be sick!
Schedule in a nap!

And I say Go Donny!

Youre a busy busy girl! I hope the rest of that cough goes away soon!
I've been busy too! My little calling is VT Supervisor. I guess they wanted to give me something easy, since they called my hubby to be the Elders Quorum Prez. I do love my calling except when you make your monthly phone calls to check if your girls visited or not and they don't ever call you back even though you hang out with them. Funny.

I wish you well! That's so awful to feel lousy...and just when you were getting into a good schedule. I used to run every school day until I started teaching seminary. I come down to see my girls tomorrow! (Oh, and my grandson too!!)
Sheila said…
You are making me tired just mentioning everything you've been doing! LOL! :)
Hope your cough gets better and you can get out there and run again! I'll be your cheerleader and root for you on the side-lines! I am NOT a runner!!!

DVR?? TIVO?? Good ol' VCR??

Hopefully you have something that can help with your busy schedule and the new fall lineup!

I watched Dancing with the stars for the first time last night and I am hooked now :)
I'm so sorry that you have been sick. That is no fun! I hope you are feeling better now. Good luck with your running. That is so great. I have been such a slacker since school started, I need to get back on track!

Have a great week!

XOXO

Goodness! I hear ya. It is tough out there right now. I thought I'd have all my ducks in a row by now, but I don't.
(My treadmill is watching me, and it is making me very uncomfortable...)

So, the Dr. Pepper was for recovery...it's medicinal? Hmmm. I'll have to remember that. :) Good job on going running!! I so need to get my hiney in gear and get back to exercising. Hope your chest cold is all gone!

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t
