new projects

The first one, finally completed almost a month later:

This was so easy and so much fun to make.  I almost had it professionally framed, but it was around $70!!  This was about…$10?  Much better deal :)  Now to just figure out where to hang it…

The second project?  I talked to my principal the other day and she loves my idea of our school sponsoring a 5k fun run/1 mile race for the school community!!  I’m super excited.  I contacted a woman from another district who has been putting this type of thing together for years and she’s going to give me the inside scoop/all the inside secrets.  I just wish I didn’t have to wait a month to meet with her!

The last day of school was Wednesday, but I’ve been working these past two days on getting things ready for summer school.  We have a week off before it begins, but I’m still not ready so I’ll take the weekend off and then it’s back to work!  And then there are so many workshops/conferences this summer that I can’t wait to go to.  I love being busy.

Josh comes home tomorrow morning and I can’t wait to see him!!  I don’t know how we were able to stay apart for so long while I was in school! 

I’m contemplating signing up for another half-marathon that is in town this July.  The only thing I’m concerned about is the heat…but that would give me another opportunity to try to reach my sub-2 hour goal this year.  It’s so great how much I have truly come to love running…in the past, I would do 1 race a year and feel overwhelmed and burned out by the training, and this year I may be doing up to 4.  Who would have ever thought?

Is anyone else sad that tonight is Jay Leno’s last Tonight  Show?  Josh and I got to see his show live on our honeymoon in LA, and it was a blast.  We both think Conan is hilarious, but it will still be sad.

To end this very random post, I have a food pic…not mine, but of Itsy’s carob & peanut butter birthday cake (she turned 2 last week…my baby is growing up!)

Peace!
