Catch Phrase Party
Quick Post...
From the BOONIES! In MI. I am at a work conference so this will be brief.
It is FREEZING HERE! I can officially say it is WINTER! I ran in the snow for the first time today! I did not come prepared for the cold weather running wise or normal wise!
I have not had much time but I managed to get in a quick 20 minutes yesterday and 20 minutes worth of hills today.
Can't wait to get back to the house to see my hubby and cats!
Hope everyone's week is going well!

Wow
So I forgot I would actually have internet briefly today before I head to Lansing for work.
Thanks Su for posting pics!!! They look great! I will be posting more Thursday or Friday.
FINALLY I got out and ran this morning. My first run in the new neighborhood. I just did an out and back from the house to the video store and post office. Literally running errands. Kind of fun :) I just did 30 minutes so probably a little over 3 miles. But hey a run is a run. I am planning on running with my sister this week since I will be up in Lansing. I need to start upping mileage for the 50k but I don't want to get too heavy too fast.
The move went incredibly well. I think we had everything in and out in under 3 hours. Pretty darn impressive. We had a TON of people there and that really helped. We are so lucky to have such good (and strong!) friends and family! Most everyone was able to hang out for a bit afterwards those that didn't missed out on some excellent Lasanga that my MIL made.
We still have boxes to unpack but the important stuff is all put away and we are settling in well.
I am off on a work trip so it is kinda of strange being in the house for two days then having to leave right away. I hope the cats and my hubby cope okay :)
I will post more about the move later!
Thanks to everyone who helped Saturday! We REALLY appreciate it!

Helping Out, by Curly Su
Today I helped Liz move into her new house...and out of her old apartment, of course. I tried to take pictures, but I must say...it's hard to take pictures while people are moving stuff in and out. Here are the best ones I managed.
The whole process didn't end up taking that long, due to SO many of her awesome friends and family helping out. We had Liz and David all moved into their new house in just a few hours. Her new house is SO great...more pictures to come, I'm sure.

No Internet
Sigh, the phone service stopped at the apartment today. And DSL won't be up and running at the house till Tuesday. I, however, will be away from the internet until THURSDAY because of a work trip! Gasp, whatever will I do?
But not to fear. My trusted partner in blogging crime will be posting some pics from the move tomorrow for you so those should tide you over till I am back!
I am definitely ready to get back out and running. Last night as I exited my work building I found my legs carrying me swiftly down the hill. I was running all the way to the car. So while my mind knows this break is good for me (let my foot and hip recover a bit) my legs are ready to get back out on the roads! They will just have to wait until Sunday though!
The house is mostly clean and ready for the major move tomorrow. We have tons of friends and family coming to help so it should be a relatively quick and painless process. Tonight we have to finish packing and get everything dusted off.
BIG THANKS TO EVERYONE COMING TO HELP! We are truly blessed to have such wonderful friends and family in our life. It is really quite amazing. Who knew we would end up here :)
Can't wait for everything to get into the house so we can all hang out at the new place! Who's on for Settlers? And B and Coach K's faves Catch Phrase and Scrabble! ;) Get ready to get your game on!

Exhausted
I thought I was going to feel bad about not running since Sunday, but, I DON'T! I am exhausted. My legs are sore, my back is sore, and my arms are sore! Cleaning is tough! Man there is a lot of dust in this house! We are getting there though. We cleaned half of the blinds now and all the floors except the basement have been swept, mopped, and vacuumed. Bathrooms, kitchen cupboards, and fridge are clean. Hubby is waiting to tackle the stove until next week.
Taking more boxes over in the morning!
Got a ticket for running a red on the way over tonight. Let's hope that doesn't cost too much.
Some pics below!
Night!
