MICE

I have mice. *shudders*
It's been almost 3 weeks since we saw the first little bastard...
The next day, we bought 6 traps, and at the end of the first week, no mice had been caught.. After being persistant with my landlord, FINALLY pest control was called, and they set up 5 more traps.. another week, nothing caught.. By this point, I had temporarily moved into my parents house with the girls.. The mice are in my walls, and they wake me up numorous times in the night!!!
My mom went out (bless her heart) and bought me 2 traps. It's the "Predator" brand, and the snap-E trap.. We have officially caught 3 mice in 2 days.
I have to add, I HATE mice.. I hate them. oooooh they freak me out, they make my skin crawl, paranoid, and I lose sleep knowing they are in my house.  I am so blessed to have a husband that will dispose of the dead mice for me.. and check the traps, bed, bathtub, kitchen, and under the covers for mice for me...
yes I know, I am a big baby... Hopefully the exterminator can make it soon, and fix this problem for good...
Our lease is up end of Jan, and I really don't want to add moving to my list of things to do whilst in school... Who knows. It could happen.
Off to work tomorrow, pray these little buggers don't wake me.. or that they're all dead...

No Ham Sandwich for me!!

So, today I decided to return to the gym after a 6 week hiatus(sp?)... Hahaha oh jeeze I am sure that people were laughing at me.. I was originally going to run a 5k race in december, and I was so excited to start training for it.. WAS being the key word... I haven't signed up yet, infact, I think that I have missed the sign up date all together... Although, there is another 5k race in March, so maybe I will train for that one..
I hopped on the treadmill today, and I was thinking I was going to conquer.... My goal is to run the 5k in about 20 min... Today, it took me 12 min to run 1.5km... I will have to run 1km in 4min to accomplish this goal!! sheesh. ...what have I gotten myself into..
p.s.. I WILL stop with the momma cass puns sooner or later.... (from the mamma and the papas for those who have NO clue what I am talking about)

here I go again :)

Good evening fellow readers/bloggers.
For whatever reason you are joining me on this blogging experience, I would like to start off by saying: Thanks for joining!
Today is my first "official" day of blogging. I don't think that I have ever been great at writing, but I have always enjoyed it. I figured I may need something to keep me sane over the next 6 months. So here's a quick background as to why my life is going to be hectic..I got accepted to school for esthetics!! I am so excited! I have always wanted to pursue a career in esthetics, but getting married/having kids kind of slowed that down for a few years.
So with 2 kids, a fantastic husband, and maybe no common sense, I am embarking on this journey of "craziness".. Classes start Jan 4th, so I have a month yet to anticipate everything. I doubt that I really need one more thing to add to my list of things to do, but why not?? What do I have to lose?  besides my sanity......
keep me in your prayers!

We’ve made it through another year! For some of you, 2019 might have been the hardest year and for others it may have been the best year yet...
