Wow! Over 1 month since I have posted anything!

I really wanted to share this with you all. I think it is one of the best pictures/drawings ever! :) My niece Natalie drew/colored it (sorry it is not in color). It is a drawing of her and her sister Leah. What is funny about it is Natalie (shown on the left) is 6 years old and Leah (on the right) is only 3 years old. I guess in Natalie's mind Leah is bigger than her...haha In real life, she surely is not.
What is it in chicken noodle soup that is supposed to make you feel better anyway?...or drinking Sprite for an upset stomach...Who made up these lies!? j/k I just thought this was funny. Everyone needs a good laugh on Monday right? I know I do!
Sunday was a great day! Drew FINALLY (j/k baby!) took me to the Dallas Farmer's Market. It was really cool. But some of the vendors seemed more like used car salesmen rather than farmers. Some were a little pushy and in your face. But it was all good! Drew at one point said, "If all fruit tasted this good, I would actually be willing to eat it!" I said, "It does, silly!" haha Anyway, we had a good time sampling all the fruit and finding the best price on baby red potatoes (I dont know what they are called)...Pretty much everthing was priced the same at each stand so it was pointless. I was really just trying to find the biggest ones. :)
Now, im not particularly vain or anything but I have a bit of a cosmetic problem that I am hoping you all can help me out with... I get these terrible cold sores on my face- usually around my mouth but most recently on the tip of my nose (gross, I know!). The cold sores dont stay too long which is nice but they always leave a scar in their wake...which totally stinks! Now, if they were shaped like lizards like the one above, maybe that would be cool. But they never are. They are just red blemishes and the one on my nose now makes me look all rudolph-y :( I have been putting liquid Vitamin E on it twice a day for a month now and it doesnt seem to be working. Any suggestion on how to naturally (meaning not Mederma or any commercial product) get rid of it? Please help or im going to have to move to the North Pole and never get to spend another chirstmas with my family!!!
For some reason, it would'nt let me add this pic to the post below. Im so Rocky Balboa! haha
So, I know you all have been literally DYING to know how the Butterfly Boogie on March 29th went. Well, the wait is over! :) It was AMAZING! I ran the 5k in 39.01 minutes....I was'nt first place or anything but I was 18th in my age group (20-24). Not too shabby for my first 5k EVER! My bro did it in 35:36. Watch out bro, I'm hot on your heels!
You know that old saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Well, I sure hope it is true! Because insurance copays are expensive- Well, mine are anyway! So, I think I will just keep eating my apple a day and keep the insurance around for emergencies. http://www.bspcn.com/2007/08/05/9-reasons-why-an-apple-a-day-really-keeps-the-doctor-away/
Well, I have fallen off of the "Raw" Wagon this week, figuratively speaking...and hard! I feel terrible about it- not only guilty but also physically terrible. I've been much more gloomy/sad lately and it has been hard for me to muster up the motivation to exercise...Which is really bad b/c I am supposed to be training to RUN (not walk) a 5K with my brother this weekend. Plus, having not been exercising like I should, I feel I am gaining weight which makes me even more sad and almost depressed....grrrrrrr......More than that, I feel like I have failed myself b/c I never finish anything that I start. Well, in all fairness, I never really set a firm goal. So, maybe I set myself up for failure from the beginning....ANYWHO! Ill try these tips(http://rawblog.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html) and get back on and be just fine, I think.
