Running the Halls: October 2010
http://runningthehalls.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 27, 2010. For the last 3 years, we've gone out of the country mid October on either our honeymoon or anniversary trip. This year, we decided to go to Gulf Shores for an extended vacay. And our hotel was about halfway between the Superdome. And the French Quarter. We got there 2 h before check-in. Time, but within 15 minutes, they had us in an upgraded room and gave us a discount on our parking. Thanks Quality Inn! It was delicious and we watched the first half of the Auburn/ LSU. We wa...

Running the Halls: March 2011

Sunday, March 6, 2011. My Dad Turned 60! Last week was my dad's 60th birthday. Anyway, mom cooked a feast! We had smoked ribs, smoked chicken, fried okra, mac and cheese, green beans (my fave! Baked beans, texas toast, cheesy potatoes, slaw, and 2 cakes. I brought one with me from Edgar's bakery and my mom's pastor's wife made the chocolate cake with strawberries. These were my first set of ruffle pants to make and I think they turned out really good! It is to me! Max is our 14 yr old Boston that we adop...

Sunday, August 22, 2010. Ready for my off week! That is the biggest understatement of the year! I have really worked a lot in the past week and I am on my 9th day in a row with one more to go. I also have one 12 and 2 doubles in that mix of days, but who's counting right? It has been a really weird week and I am incredibly ready for our vacation! In less than two weeks, I will be enjoying myself, reading books, and sunbathing for 10 straight days! He just didn't understand my concept! The morning after t...

Running the Halls: December 2011

Sunday, December 11, 2011. Hi, I'm Mary. I took a longer break than I thought. I thought if you read this you may need a new introduction. When I started day shift back in August, I just felt like I really didn't have time to read any blogs, much less keep up with posting on my own. I feel like I've hit a rhythm. Now, so maybe I will start posting at least semi-regularly now. We will see I guess. Can you pay for something! Since I have to work on both Chrstmas Eve and Christmas day, we are having my big ...

Running the Halls: July 2010
http://runningthehalls.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 24, 2010. I don't know about you, but I feel like it has been waaaaaay. Hotter than normal lately! Our air conditioner has been running non stop every day and it still struggles to stay less than 78 degrees in the afternoons. A couple of weeks ago, I bought some new curtains for our dining room because it seems like when the sun sets, it's just beaming right in. Our dining room and kitchen are open to each other and the walls are a brick red with white trim wainscoting. This is what I got:.

Running the Halls: January 2011
http://runningthehalls.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 31, 2011. Every year, our church starts out with 21 days of prayer and fasting. Each year I try to fast from something different. This year I chose to fast from all social media and carbonated beverages. I did social media last year, and I must say I think that it was a good choice to do that every year! I admit, I become way too consumed with what is going on around me even with people that I don't really know and it's great to take a step back and focus on what is really important!

Running the Halls: June 2011

Wednesday, June 22, 2011. Our neighbors look after them for the day and we are back around 11-12 that night. Well, Jennifer and I decided that we needed a night, and two good meals, so that is exactly what we did. We left a little after 8, got there around 12 and did not leave the beach until around 6. Our cooler was packed with drinks and fresh fruit and we read all day. It was bliss! Just exactly what we needed! Did you really have to ask me that! I had nothing to worry about! I loved having a view of ...

Running the Halls: Not His Plan
http://runningthehalls.blogspot.com/2011/07/not-his-plan.html
Monday, July 11, 2011. You don't always get what you want. Recently, I applied for a different job that would ultimately change my entire schedule. It was a day shift position working Monday thru. I was never the most popular girl is elementary school. I had some really great friends, but the scars are still there from being a bit heavy and being called "thunder thighs" as I was sitting on the monkey bars in PE. I digress. Since this situation occurred. Its been a rough couple of weeks! Subscribe to: Pos...

Sunday, July 31, 2011. Times They Are a Changin'. Today has been my last official day of being 7 on 7 off. I took full advantage of my last week off! Tuesday I went to the river and hung out with some family. I watched the kids innertube and have a great time. I went shopping and got some awesome deals at M@cys. Ate lunch with friends and family, cleaned my house, played with the pups, watched a lot of Sex and the City, sewed, monogrammed, and just hung out like I didn't have a care in the world. Kent st...
