New Years Goals

Wow what a year 2014 has been!!! I went through a huge job change and had a injury that wouldn't go away. Even though 2014 had many ups and downs everything ended up working out even better than I could imagine. I love my new job at my new school! And well the injury is getting better slowly. I don't usually set New Years goals, but this year I thought let's try it out!! So here are my 2015 Goals!!

Goals for 2015

1. Complete the one year bible. I try this every year and I stop midway through. I want to set aside time everyday to read and talk to God. How sad is it that my goal is to set aside time for God? He should be in my every thought....
   
2. Leave school at school and actually be home and spend time with my boys. I struggle with bringing school and stress home with me. I need to leave it at SCHOOL.
   
3. Finally start on my Masters Degree!! (this scares me and I keep making excuses)
   
4. I want to run 600 miles next year.
   
5. Run Injury Free all Year!!!
   
6. Cross Train 2-3 days a week.
   
7. Completely give up Diet Dr Pepper
   
8. Eat Better
   

Happy New Year!!!

Just Stopping By..

I am currently working on revamping the blog for a new year. I hope you had a Merry Christmas!

Happ Fall Y'all

I swear I haven't forgotten about the blog. Life has been crazy and a little lazy. With the weather going back and forth my foot has been killing me, I will not push myself again and end up in a ugly walking boot for 4 months!!So I have been taking it super easy. I did get some awesome Brooks Ravenas and some insoles from fleet feet that I love! I am planning on running 5ks and 10ks all year and next fall running my first half! Here are some of the fun we have been having lately!

Happy Fall from Remy!

I know I am behind the times! But I had my first green smoothie and loved it!

I went on some pretty hikes.

My new shoes!

Crazy Month

Wow! I went from one day jobless to the next being hired and starting school the next day! It has taken me up to this point to finally get caught up! I have missed blogging and running! I am so excited to go tomorrow and be fitted for orthotics and new shoes so I can hit the trails  again! I have needed the running therapy lately! However I promised my doctors I would get orthotics and shoes before I start back! And I basically haven't had any time to stop and do that. I know excuses excuses... But I am back!! Here are some photos of my classroom and things that have been happening lately. Oh yeah I am teaching 6th grade reading and I absolutely love it!!!

I love the owls! Excuse the mess!

B's new climbing wall!

Pup and I chilling! I love my new glasses!

Work It Wednesday!

I am still sooo sore! On Monday's I go to an adult cheer class, it's where old cheerleaders come and tumble for an hour. I worked muscles I forgot I had! So today I went for a short run. I am still not wanting to push my foot. I am working on a post about my injury, it's just getting lengthy.  After I did my run I looked on Pinterest for an arm workout. I know I know!! What did we do before Pinterest?? 

I hope you enjoy!! Keep working it!

Not so nice July

I thought I had it.. When I was in college getting my degree, my dream was to teach in elementary and be the high schools cheer coach. I finally was doing that.. And then July hit and I'm not anymore, for reasons I probably will never know, and really at this point I don't want to know. I feel like I have been hit with a boulder. I have grieved this loss. But now I'm over it.. What's next? I don't know the answer to that.. The only person who does is God, and He never has given me anything that I couldn't overcome. And I have overcome a lot in these 27 years. I will never ask Him why me?? Because he is molding me and made me who I am. I am here for Him to share His word and bring people to Him and that's what I will do. Am I perfect? Well, no. I  am human and I fail Him everyday. But my God loves me no matter what I do, I have a clean slate. I am so thankful and blessed with what I have, and really I have all I need. Life isn't always rainbows and butterflies you will go through tough times and all you can do is bow down and pray. He knows what He is doing, you just have to look to Him. This song has been on repeat these couple of weeks and it truly has made me feel better. I am brave and so should you!

 

Thanks for stopping by!

 

I'm Loving It Friday

Woohoo it's Friday my favorite day of the week!! I have decided every Friday I will share with you what I have been loving this week or what has been getting me through the week. Whatever the case may be. This week has kind of been a lazy one! So let's get to the good stuff!

1. I am totally loving my new Maybook! They are the perfect size to throw into my purse and I love how cute they are! The OCD comes out of me with my planner because I use a different colored pen for everything! But it's what keeps me organized and I usually don't miss anything important!

2.  My summer obsession has been the Bachelorette. I usually watch bits and pieces all season and then watch the finale, but this one has me hooked! This has also been the first season I haven't looked at a spoiler. Who will she pick?? I am team Josh (but I always go for the athletes, I married one!)

3. The old cheerleader in me is coming back! I have been going to a local gym and tumbling! I can still do some stuff after 7 years! I did a standing tuck and some running tumbling! I still got it!

 

4. My diva pink brooks. I am beginning to start running again and I have forgotten how much I love them! I am also loving that tank!

 

 

5. This summer for my birthday everybody got me a Alex and Ani bracelet! I was so excited because I love arm candy!! The special thing about it was everyone got me a different charm, so when I wear them I think about that sweet person! I just love them!

 

 

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!!!!

 

Work It Wednesday

 I have been suffering from a running injury for what seems like forever! It really has only been 2 months. But I have been going nuts wanting to do some kind of workout all the time. Lately I have been just getting on the wonderful thing we call Pinterest and just looking up what I want to do. What did we ever do before Pinterest??  So this morning I did this workout, I know it says late night workout, but it was really good for this morning! I have been on the struggle bus in the mornings, I think deep down I know my days are numbered for sleeping in. Here is the workout!

 

 

 

I hope you enjoy it!!!!

 



First Post

Hey!! I am so excited to finally get to blog!! I have introduced myself and the boys on my about me page, but I'll do it sort of again! My name is Lo and I love to run, teach, shop, and spend time with my family. We have two fur monsters Rambo and Remy. I have lived in Alabama my whole life. I was a college cheerleader in the SEC.

The things I love: I love my husband. I love finger nail polish (probably way to much). I love my fur monsters or "the boys". I love to shop. I love SEC football!! and I love candy!

The blog is still a work in progress, but I was so excited I decided to go ahead and make a post!
