On the Run: September 2011
http://corunnermom.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 23, 2011. First Day of Fall. At this point, I think we've all come to understand why I only committed to the S.O.B. Once school and Bible study and soccer and football and run club and math olympiad and college football and pumpkin eating-season begin, I'm toast. Plus, people around here want laundered clothes and food at regular intervals. These pictures I finally uploaded are from our Labor Day hike up Devil's Head. Lilly shimmied up this rock with no plan to get down. At the top of D...

On the Run: July 2010
http://corunnermom.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 30, 2010. Look what I found on clearance at Target today:. Ye Olde Slip n' Slide. Honestly, not as great as I remembered from days of yore. But the kids still had fun. Sort of. There was a lot of arguing, squabbling, and all-around bickering. But the {bad} pictures make it look like we had a ball. Part of me is glad that when I am old and wearing elastic pants, I won't remember the details of today's arguments. Because they were 100% ridiculous. And maybe which swim suit to wear next. I thou...

On the Run: Can We Talk?
http://corunnermom.blogspot.com/2011/09/can-we-talk.html
Saturday, September 03, 2011. I am having some serious meal planning/preparation issues. This is what my fridge looks like. I asked the kids and NO, they didn't want to eat rotting meat, expired yogurt, and pickles for dinner. Each week starts with grand ambitions and sometimes even a menu{! That looks like this:. F-grilled balsamic bbq chicken. But our reality last week looked like:. M-take and bake pizza. W-pot roast (the fancy microwave kind from costco). F-peanut butter chocolate chip waffles. I have...

On the Run: July 2011
http://corunnermom.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 29, 2011. My blogging mojo is nowhere to be found. We've had a constant, awesome stream of friends and family staying out back in the lavish guest house {with private pool}, so there hasn't been much time to upload horrific pictures to the blog. But first, I should share that in my continuing pursuit for organizational excellence, I got my vehicle's emissions test AND renewed the vehicle registration today- the very last day of the grace period. Which leads me to Chicago. The kids flew solo ...

On the Run: April 2012
http://corunnermom.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 11, 2012. Overtired, Irrational Children Say the Darndest Things. This is from last fall. I don't know why I didn't hit 'publish.' But I did today. Mom, I don't know how to tell you this, but I don't think our family is a safe place.". BLATANT laughing and snorting. Lilly, I'm sorry that I'm giggling, but I can't even pretend to take that comment seriously when there aren't two people in this world that love you more than your daddy and me. Why do you feel it's not safe? Oh Was it wrong?

On the Run: Indescribable
http://corunnermom.blogspot.com/2011/09/i-think-everyone-will-be-glad-to-know.html
Monday, September 05, 2011. I think everyone will be glad to know that I have been talked down from the meal-planning related cliffs of insanity. My sister-in-law was laughing because we had this exact. Conversation exactly one month ago and I researched a bunch of websites that vow to help out with dinner/grocery shopping issues and emailed her some suggestions. The difference is that she actually reads the websites. And takes their advice. Her family is well-fed and happy. Well, she was right. T-chicke...

On the Run: August 2010
http://corunnermom.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 05, 2010. I Know It's Summer When. I realize I've been wearing Silly Bands for weeks and I have no idea where they came from or WHY? Saturday feels like every other day. Iced coffee and ice cream are entire food groups. Haven't used a blow dryer in ages. Consciously remind myself to change out of my pool garb before Brad gets home for dinner. Due to cleaning neglect, my house doesn't meet even the lowest health code standards. I don't want any of this {even the frogs} to end. Overtired, ...

On the Run: Largo Teal
http://corunnermom.blogspot.com/2010/07/largo-teal.html
Sunday, July 04, 2010. I forgot to tell you.I painted my front door a lovely turquoise at the end of May. It needed a little snazzing. Don't get me wrong.I looooved the black door. Truly, it had been a dream of mine for quite some time. But if you know me at all, my paint dreams change. Frequently. So, for right now, I'm pretending I live in a beach house. If it's a great summer, it will be "The Summer of the Blue Door! Melted waxy crayon all over new Costco beach towels is free. What a gorgeous door!
