Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.

hope everyone had a grrreat turkey filled weekend..i know my tummy did..ahhhh...and i got to bake my first sweet potatoe pie..haha..yay it's fun being able to cook/bake again..i missed it so=P..i got this really cool bday gift from my cousins too...a gift card where i can take like intro cooking classes..should be interesting=P..and hopefully i can use whatever i learn to put rachael ray's book to use..thanx joes & karen!! hehe kitchen confidential here i come=)

so anyways..i put together a studying/training schedule for the marathon in march and my exam in april..it starts this coming monday..duuuuuuuuude..i'm going to have no life=(..no more rest and relaxation after work..booooooooooo..this is going to take so much motivation and discipine..both of which i don't have right now..great..my runs haven't been so good...the knees have been acting up very nasty lately..the orthotics don't seem to be doing the trick..i wonder if i should get my running gait analyzed?..ahhhh i'm sick of going to the doctors for this..my general doctor..a podiatrist..a sports medicine doctor..an orthotics doctor..geez..and my last resort if the orthotics didn't work...sports therapy..booooooooooooo...not looking forward to that at all..hehe so instead, i've been reading the runners forums..and i'm thinking about taking those glucosamine sulphate tablets..heard they help..but i'm scared to try something that's pretty new to the market y'know?..and i'm also going to try some new leg exercises which should help strengthen the muscles around my knees...dang..training this year is no bueno..let's hope my studying goes a little better?

anyways..hmm, so last year i was told by 2 of my co-workers that i look like her..i told lou and he just laughed..then on sunday we had lunch with my sister and her husband..and they too were insistent that i really really looked like her..at this point..lou is totally laughing his arse off..so tell me..do i look like her?

they said it's the eyes...



ummmm i don't see it...haha i say it's the big face!!! booo ..hahhaha..and if you don't know who this little lady is..it's dora..the explorer...ha!
