An unfiltered view of life as a working mom and submariner's wife. This is real life, my life and it's not easy.

9 miles
That's how far I made it today, it was a great run. I set a goal for an hour and a half and I came in at 1:33. Not too bad. Im beginning to think I might be able to run the entire half marathon. I do stop but just to take a sip of my water (stowed away in that frigging fanny pack) so I dont choke while running. Its always good to NOT croak on the side of the road. Next weekend I plan on taking the kids to Monster Jam so idk how Im going to fit in the long run. So after I get done with the run, dinner gets cooked and off we go to Lowes. I bought a gallon of blue paint and started painting the kitchen! Because what else would one do after running 9 miles? Lol, Bill is going to hate the color...its a bright blue but its a happy color. The walls needed some brightening and this is sure gonna do the trick. I love color in the house but Bill would rather have everything beige. I figure with him gone, I can get some things done around here that normally would never get accomplished. The kitchen is going to be a pain in the ass...the cupboards are getting some paint too. But this time I'm going to seal the cupboards with a clear coat. We really should've done that 8 years ago. Another busy week is on tap and no complaints from this lady. The more shit I can fit into our days the better and faster they go by. Nothing wrong with sitting around all morning every once in a while and I'll be the first to admit that's my favorite thing to do. Just sit around drink coffee till 10 or so while the girls watch tv or do whatever. If I could do that every day, I'd be happy. However being a mom makes me feel guilty about everything so of course I'd feel bad about letting their little brains rot in front of that big screen.
