Personal Assistant

I could totally use one!  If for nothing else, just to keep up with my email, twitter, facebook and this blog!

The housework and bills at home, I can handle those! 

Things are quite busy here, obviously, I haven't blogged in a month!  School started back up and my 300 students are all moved back into my building.  Ryan's brother got married (again) during opening weekend, which was poor timing for me, but I figured, "hey, at least I got an invite to this one!"  His first wedding... I wasn't invited to.  His first wife told me point blank, "I have enough friends, I don't need you or Scott's mother as friends" and then proceeded to leave me off the shower invite list as well as the wedding invite list.  Oh well, I didn't lose sleep over it!

This wedding was... interesting... I'll recap with a few highlights:
No music during Holly's walk down the hill towards Scott, so her step-father sang "da, na, na, na.... da, na, na ,na..." while walking with her...
The 'ceremony' took place in a gazebo, which was pretty.  Until a little dog ran in and around the gazebo through the whole thing!
The "bridesmaids" attire was interesting - one wore an 80s small prom dress in purple and the other wore a sundress with black/white and red in it.  
After the wedding, while Holly and Scott were over taking pictures, Holly's mother shouts to all the guests, "Ladies, if you need to use the bathroom, you can use the camper (there was a camper set up near the food) and guys, well you know where you can go (and pointed to the woods)"...
People were asked to "bring a dish to share" making this the first potluck wedding I've been to... but they did have steak tips and chicken.  However, the bare-chested man with the cigarette hanging out of his mouth that was grilling contributed to the fact that I did not eat much that day!
My sister made the cake, that had (as requested) candy skull heads on it.  She did a nice job.
And, unfortunately I forgot my bathing-suit because, the pool was a huge attraction!

I'll attach some pictures for your viewing pleasure: however, right now the picture button is not working, so you'll just have to wait!



As far as running goes, I'm getting my groove back!
When we were in MB I ran every other day practically, but once we got back I was slacking... and it was just so hard to start back up!
But I've been going at least three, mostly four, times a week for the past three weeks and I run 3 miles each time.  I have a 5K coming up in October, which, I'm ready for! 
I was going to train for another Half with a co-worker, but I just couldn't afford or justify paying for the $55 registration fee right now.





Anyways, that's my quick update.  When I can, I'll get the pics updated!!
