Madison upgraded today!!!

Today, Madison had her weekly riding lessons. (They are usually Monday mornings, but this week they had to move to Thursday morning) Anyhow-- she has been riding Belle, a pony. But today, we upgraded (aka conquered her fear!!) to Kitty, a horse!!!
THREE CHEERS FOR MADI!! (and Kitty)
And a sweet thank you and goodbye (figuratively speaking) to Belle.

"If found on ground, please drag across finish line"

If the title doesn't explain, then let me clarify. I am OFFICIALLY registered for the 2009 Kansas City Gobbler Grind 1/2 Marathon!! OMG!! WHAT AM I THINKING?!

Ok- I am thinking that my cousin, Julie, wants a partner to join her on this run.
Also- I am thinking that I want to do more than a 10K before the year is out.
Finally- I can so do this!!

Back to reality---
First- I can so NOT do this!!
Second- What was I thinking?!
Third- Why didn't I get more training in?!
Fourth- I am going to die!
Fifth- I am SO NOT READY!
Sixth- "If found on ground, please drag across finish line" (this is a shirt I need to purchase to cover the fact that, I AM GOING TO DIE!
Seventh- **Taking deep breaths
Eight- ............


Ok, I do want to be in GREAT SHAPE for the 10 year class reunion this coming year. AND I DO want to be the type of mom that can wear this shirt "One Bad Mother Runner"
(COUGH COUGH...Shana... my fav sis-in-law) AND my softball girls are going to be needing me to be in tip-top shape to kick their young teenage tushes into gear!

But I am still lacking motivation somehow.

AWH!!!! I need a FREE personal trainer to kick my ass into gear. Someone to yell at me, and get me going!
