Big Turkey and Joy (sort of an ew to new--#20)

i did the turkey trot with ange on thanksgiving morning. just now getting around to posting a pic. we were part of a record crowd--close to 12,000! wow! i didn't get any post race pics. my race didn't start until after ange's and so i didn't get to see her finish.

ange did the 5k and i did the 10k. i managed to cut 20 minutes off my time since i did my last 10k back in march of this year. i'm pretty excited about that!

i have a half marathon coming up in december. sometime this week or next i'm gonna have to do 8 or 10 miles. i might need help from my girls to feed me along the way. if i can do the 8, it's not much after that. i can pretty much run all day if i can do 8. as long as i have something to munch on.

anywho, i made this little number:

i originally saw it here at jen's fab-o website. check out her tutorial on the right hand column. she's got all kinds of goodies on her blog, so be sure to check her out. i used cardstock letters instead and, of course, i had to junk mine up a bit. ;)

it's kind of an ew to new but i didn't get an 'ew' picture. they were just some picture frames from goodwill; 25-cent and 50-cent little numbers. good deal. i used the new basic grey papers and painted the frames black. the letters are traced off my monitor and cut out (p.i.t.a.!) then i added some embellies.

i like looking at them. makes me happy.

I really wish...

that this didn't bother me so. But it drives me absolutely insane. Each day I think more and more that i was meant to live all by myself. I won't even take a picture of what's under his side of the bed. Not done by a child either.

new moon...

so, me and my girls went friday (12:30am) to see new moon. i didn't remember how it ended b/c it's been a while since i read the books. so that was cool. ummm, i thought it was better than the first one. the acting was a tad bit better (like it could have gotten any worse).

but...it's twilight. what's not to love? even if it is perhaps one of the worst movies ever made? seriously:and some people were making fun of my poor edward. cuz he's skinny. whatever.

anywho...i went with aim, ange, and aim's daughter, randa-roo. yup. randa-roo. that's really her name! can you believe that? some parents are just so cruel ;)

oh, and i'm still paying for the late night. and the horrible popcorn that i ate without even a second thought. cuz it's popcorn. how bad could it be? i didn't get any butter on it.

ooh...and i saw a preview for that new movie avatar. not really into it, but my boyfriend is going to be in it. one thing though...why do they always have to mess up his face? i mean come on!!! they jacked with his face in terminator and in this new movie they're making him into some weird lizard thing. listen here, sam. tell them to give you a part where i can see your pretty face!!!

have a stupendous saturday!

Ew to New #19!!! hooray! and the friday 5

the ew part:

$1.00 frame from goodwilll (half price day, of course).

the new:

i made this the other day and have been waiting to get pics on the desktop so i could upload them here. uses new basic grey, thickers, jb, making memories, ribbon from michael's and one of martha's new punches (i love that punch!!!)

and now for a friday 5:

1. go visit your parents. as much as you can. and if you're young and still live with them, suck it up and stay there as long as they'll allow you to.
2. eating clean makes your body snobbish. i fell ill after eating movie popcorn. and staying up until 4:12am.
   
3. neighbors do weird things. i wonder if they think the same about me?
4. gomey is annoying as all get out...he's been getting loose and getting a taste of the real world.
5. gomey needs to suck it up and stay with his parents as long as we'll let him.
