No challenges for a few days! My internet is down.

Grr.

Just get out of my head & my heart!!! Go away!
I hate this.

Christina Perri - Arms

I heard this song for the first time tonight & I couldn't find a better song to describe my feelings I have right now. It made me cry. I'm raping the replay button.

I will do this!

I came across this today on Facebook! I think it would be really interesting and fun to participate in and I would LOVE to do it! There's also one in Colorado that runs from Ft. Collins to Boulder. I really want to get into trail running eventually, so I think after a couple of years of really being into it and practice I could definitely do something like this! It's a fun goal to shoot for anyway :)

30 Day Challenge

Day 2 - A picture of the person you've been closest with the longest

That person would be Chelsea (on the left). I've known her since I was 3 years old, we met fighting... and I mean trying to take each other out fighting ... over a pink crayon in preschool. If you know me, that should not surprise you in the least. 

Another thing that I'm adding to my blog is a daily challenge. (from https://challenge.meyouhealth.com)

Today's challenge is "Define Your Dream" :

Hmm, my dream would be to become completely independent, in all areas of my life. Especially emotionally and financially. I want to learn to be okay on my own and not expect help from anyone else, being able to just have a night alone. I want to have money in the bank for an emergency and be able to take a small family vacation with my boys every year! 

My boys.

The best thing to ever happen to me & all that really matters!

Girls on the Run

Lately I have been searching the internet for running groups, websites, advice, etc. I've come across a program that I think is so awesome and amazing and I really wish I could get one started around here! It's called Girls on the Run and what they do is create a 12 week training program for girls from 3rd - 8th grade. At the end of the 12 weeks they run a 5k. It doesn't only teach the girls the importance of exercise and health but it also help build self confidence! Why do I think this is so amazing?! Because I think EVERY girl should have self confidence and learn to be able to feel okay no matter what situation they are in. I have personal reasons as to why this is such an important thing to me, but I think Girls on the Run really does help every girl that joins. I really think that if I can, I want to try to get one going in the area. I think it's needed and very important.

Watch this video and see what I mean!

'Awesome mothers' graduate from Young Parents High

'Awesome mothers' graduate from Young Parents High

Something I came across tonight! I can't believe it's been almost 6 years since we graduated. I love these girls and miss them!

Top 5 things that motivate me and why.

1. My kids!
Of course, right?! They motivate me to want to be a better person, try my best & stay healthy so that I can be around for them as long as I can!


2. Looking in the mirror and being unhappy with what I see.
I think this is pretty self explanatory.  I want to be happy with what I see.


3. Someone I love.
They know who they are, they  just motivates me to be a better person.


4. Being poor.
Really, it sounds stupid, but not having very much money has really motivated to me further my education and go after something I'm passionate about and turning it into a career.


5. Warm weather.
Spring and warm weather makes me want to get out and run my heart out!
