it's monday!

Been working a lot up here, but it's been good.

Went to a ghostland observatory concert last saturday, the light show was amazing!

Running has not been going as well unfortunately. I'm not super determined and the ice cold rain at 7am is nothing short of inconvenient. However, I am going to El Paso soon and should be able to do some running on the good ol' ditches behind my house for a few days. Keep your fingers crossed. I just want to run the entire 1/2... doesn't have to be fast... just completed.

With that, I'm so excited to go to Texas and see my family (esp. my nieces and nephew).

Anyway, there is a little update. I've been especially homesick lately, this usually happens right before I go home. Perhaps it is the anticipation... who knows!

<3 you girls

MONDAY, Monday, monday!

Hey ladies! Sorry it has been such a stretch since I have posted. I do hope you will check back every Monday and leave me little messages. Nothing can describe how much I miss my dear "dorm sisters" (and whomever else might read this).

With that being said, I generally have every Monday off, so with that I will try to make it a routine to update on this day!

What is going on with me right now:
nothing.

JUST KIDDING!!! Well I'm still here in Seattle but I am making it back to Texas 4 times between now and the middle of march. I hope to get to see each and every one of you even if it is just for a moment! I'll let you know when I'm coming to a city near you (have I turned into a major motion picture?).

As for me in November, it is looking to be a pretty great month. Holidays are coming, which means work will pick up quite a bit (and we are a hot soup restaurant which should be a-ok through those wintry shopping days). I am going home to El Paso in 2 weeks and then over to the Austin area to see my sister and her kids for a few days. I might try to squeeze a peek in at camp as well :)

Once I get back to the NW I am running a 1/2 marathon with my roommate Caitlin... We are hoping this might open the door to more races (or just activity.)

Those of you that remember Jordan Lawhead, he is going to be in town on Tuesday so I have recruited many people from my household to go to his show. It should be so fun to see him again!
