Training has me thinking...

So all this training has me thinking. Mostly because I have periods of time with only me, myself, and I. One of my reasons for doing a trialthlon is to set an example for my kids of lifetime fitness. I *try* to be careful what message I send to my own girls. I found this on a new blog I'm stalking called Sister Skinny. Click here to see their blog.

This & That

So, it has been brought to my attention that I have been neglecting my blog. What have I been up to you ask? Here are the highlights. I've been:
1. Working out! Triathlon training has picked up. Austin is less than 12 weeks away so I have to get my 5 workouts a week in. I have been doing 2 runs, 2 bikes, 2 weights and 1 swim.
2. Making jewelry! (Shocking, I know) Business has been hopping with my online boutiques...which is fabulous!
3. Visiting Doctors! Katie had very intensive allergy testing. The prick tests proved inaccurate with her, so poor pumpkin had to have the intradermal (read:shots) testing. It was horrific, but we learned she is highly allergic to almost everything! Some things we knew (dogs), some we thought she was allergic to and is not (horses) and some we were surprised by (grass!trees!dust mites!)So rather than cloistering her we have opted for daily meds at this point. I just can't bring myself to do the shots yet...
4. Taking photos! I've been loosely working on my portfolio as time and weather permits. While I have purchased studio lighting equipment, it's not my forte so I am really hoping spring will come soon. I also got to take photos of my sweet niece who turned 13 last weekend and had a little make over. (I thought 13 was supposed to be awkward?) Her mom gave her a visit to a "real" salon for highlights and I surprised her with a make over with their very talented make up artist. (See Photos)
5. Not cleaning my house. That's one thing I have NOT been doing. So there.
6. Missing my hubby. I am just a lowly tax widow and I start really losing it about this time every year. I'm so thankful April 15th is on the horizon.
7. hmmm, I think I might be out of things to write...Jenn, does this count as a tag? :)

Leave me some love, I love comments. :)
