Me and the Mercedes........Marathon: 8/16/09 - 8/23/09

Monday, August 17, 2009. So I took some days off work and we decided to have a blow out! The only part of Chuck E. Cheese that nearly pushed me over the edge was waiting in line to redeem the tickets. The ladies that were working behind the counter had other responsibilities and handing out junk seemed to be on the bottom of their list. Also using 210 points, 10 points at a time got a little trying. There is a 5K on September 5th I’d like to walk but I would also like to run a mile or so of it. My friend...

Wednesday, September 23, 2009. Things I’ve Learned. I’ve learned I talk a good game but I’m bad at follow through. I’ve learned you should keep your serial number/photo list up to date in case someone or more decides to kick in your front door. I’ve learned (or re-learned) I am a stress eater. I’ve learned I have to try to accept myself as I am but to continually improve. I have been eating like a panda plowing through acres of bamboo! How much are you really going to get for an old DS? The second thing ...

Wednesday, July 15, 2009. At least this week has been a two steps forward, one step back type of week. Last week seemed to be one step forward and two steps back. My eating has been much better, except for the birthday treats that keep popping up! Hey, you turn down your manager when she has made you a homemade cookie cake - that was delicious, by the way. Next week, I'll have no excuses to eat treats, our house guests will be back home and, hopefully, the juvenile deliquent that lives behind us will hav...

Me and the Mercedes........Marathon: A New Week
http://meandmercedes.blogspot.com/2009/10/new-week.html
Monday, October 19, 2009. This weekend was great fun! The Hubby and L went to a Queensryche concert on Friday night and had a blast. They had backstage passes and met each band member and some members of the band’s family. Several people recognized The Hubby from his Queensryche board name – Mindclot. The Hubby is known in certain circles for his artwork with the Queensryche tryryche. Swedish food – Chilton County Style:. Steak, baked potatoes, corn and roll - apparently Swedish! 1 slaw from Zaxby’s.

Me and the Mercedes........Marathon: Here Mojo – Here Boy – Has Anyone Seen My Mojo?
http://meandmercedes.blogspot.com/2009/08/here-mojo-here-boy-has-anyone-seen-my.html
Monday, August 31, 2009. Here Mojo – Here Boy – Has Anyone Seen My Mojo? Well, it seems I’ve taken another blogging break – and diet and exercise break for that matter! There are a lot of things I could blame it on – school starting, soccer staring, cub scouts starting. Only being home one night last week, etc. etc. etc. But those are only excuses not reasons. None of those things should have stopped me from eating right or not exercising at least in the mornings. So what do I do to get back on track?

Monday, August 3, 2009. My First Race Report. It seems in blogland that you must record the results of your first race. Mine are less than spectacular but I finished and now my first organized race is under my belt. And I can only get better! During the first mile, in the front were a lot a runners, then there was an older man, me and then several people walking including a pregnant lady who were doing the one mile fun run. At the point of the fourth mile, there was the older man and then me. But...About...
