I've Been Tagged

I was tagged by Elizabeth, so here's the scoop:

1.You must share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.


2.You then tag 7 people and at the end of the post you provide links to their blogs.


3.Lastly, let them know they are being tagged.

Alrighty here it goes...

1. I have the world's loudest hiccups, they are uncontrollable and it is impossible to keep my mouth closed (contrary to what my sister may tell you I promise they are in no way fake or exaggerated!)


2. My knees allow me to sit in strange positions...(well strange according to other people...I consider it quite normal)


3. Before getting into my vehicle at night in the dark, I check the backseat to make sure nobody is hiding back there.


4. I don't have a favorite color. I LOVE color, and color combinations, but whenever I try to pull one out that I like the best I just don't like it as well by itself


5. I'll take a good action movie over a chick flick any day of the week (sorry girls!)


6. I hate milk, but drink it anyway


7. I have to have the TV on when home alone...not sure why, because I'm probably not watching it...I would say for the background noise, but the radio does not have the same effect.


Alright, there you go....7 things you always wanted to know about me. Now I am supposed to tag 7 new people, but, sorry to say I do not know 7 new people in the blogging community...so you'll have to settle for 2. Deb, and Dana ...YOU'RE IT!!

Life Right Now - November 2025

 Right now Beau is a senior and has a schedule that has him home most of the afternoon.  He is currently between jobs.  He worked at Hartmann Lawn Care for the summer and fall, and is re-starting at Fleet Farm this week (today, actually).  He worked there throughout the school year last year too, and they hired him back for this year. Right now Cora is a sophomore and just finished up her school volleyball season.  She played middle hitter for the JV team this year, and then was moved up to Varsity for sections and state.  She got to spend a week up in the Cities with the team, and they ended up placing 3rd.  She will play for the 17s team for JO this winter.  Practices for that will start after Thanksgiving, with tournaments starting in January.  She will be doing an off season workout program through the school this winter until softball practices start up in early spring. Right now Sylvie is in 7th grade and starting her first year of sch...

Around here.....

Here's just a little snapshot of what life looks like right now. Around here we're starting to get into the basketball season.  Both Beau and Cora are participating in traveling basketball through SYBA.  The crazy weekends of tournaments haven't started yet, but they're both having practice regularly.  Luke will be the assistant coach to Cora's team this year.  Sylvie will get to play too, but her season won't start until January and is one game on Saturday mornings in town. Around here are three kids are going to religion class on Wednesday nights, I'm teaching Cora's 3rd grade class.  Between that and basketball practice it's rare to have a weeknight where we are all home. Around here we're getting excited for the holidays!  I'm starting in on some shopping, planning and thinking about getting the house decorated.  The kids are getting Christmas lists made, and my desk is full of December Daily prep work.  Around here I...

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of My First Half Marathon

Nearly 2 years ago my friend, Casey, and I set a goal to run a half marathon.  The plan was to train for a 10K (which we ran in Mankato last fall) and then go back and do the half the following year.  It seemed so far off.  That far off date was last Sunday.  I'm happy to say that our goal was met.  We both ran the half marathon.  13.1 miles without stopping.  But, as all things do, goals evolve.  In the time since that rainy, shivering, post 5-k goal setting ride home I decided that I wanted to run not only a half marathon, but a sub-2 half marathon.  This is the story of what is undeniably a great accomplishment, but sometimes even great accomplishments can be laced with disappointment ( read, not overly inspiring ).  I will warn you that there may be a bit TMI, so if you're turned off by "potty talk" I encourage you to stop reading now. 2015 Mankato Half Marathon Recap In the days leading up to the race I was feeling excite...
