Awaiting the rain.


North Little Rock will look and feel like Forks, WA before too much longer. Rain is in the forecast for the next 7 days! Although things outside have been perfect for several days now, I happen to love rain, so I am actually looking forward to it.

Work has been slow the past week. I guess everyone is trying to readjust to their normal routines now that school is back in session. Slow business makes for a slow day. I am ready for our normal slammed schedule to pick back up!

After dinner, Gary and I went to The Big Dam Bridge to run. It was a beautiful evening for a run. We got there just as the sun was setting, and there was a perfect breeze off of the river. We ran 3.1 miles in 33 minutes and 40 seconds. Gary kept up with me without even training. I'm super impressed! I think he has decided to run the Easter Seals 5k with me next weekend. Maybe I can even talk him into training for the half!

These are my new running shoes I got at The Easy Runner. They watched me run and picked them out for me. I love them, but I'm still having a lot of pain in my left calf when I near the end of my run. Gonna have to figure that out before December.

We're in for the evening. Gonna pop some popcorn and watch Weeds.

Tornado Thursday.

Right now I am sitting at home with color on my nappy roots, watching the tornado warnings on tv, listening to the storm outside my window. No worries, our little family is safe inside. Ready to put Maggie and Lola in the bathtub with us at any second! I hope it chills out soon.

Today work was very busy. Did my Mom's hair too. So cute! After work we got a pizza and watched Slumdog Millionaire. It was so good. Tate called and we got to catch up for about 40 min. It was great. I miss her so much!

Glad tomorrow is Friday!

Rain, rain go away.

I normally like rainy days, but today the rain kinda had me down. Work was busy, so tonight we decided to take it easy. We went to Wing Stop for dinner, then came home and caught up on the last 4 episodes of The Office. It was nice to just not think about anything I needed to be doing for a night. To top it off I am gonna go to bed before 11:00.
