A Journet of 10,000 Miles....

Okay! I recently watched a movie called Julie&Julia-- and I loved it!! It's about a lady who works in a call center, and then decides to cook her way through Julia Child's cookbook in a year. Then she kept track of it all on her blog. I really liked that idea, so starting tomorrow (September 1st) I am going to start a goal. The goal is this: I would like to run/walk 10,000 miles by the end of 2013... which is when I will finish Nursing School. SO. I need to figure out how to put a countdown on my blog here and then I can keep track! Yay!

I figure a really good byproduct of this goal is that I will finally lose all the accumulated baby weight. 125 here I come!

See ya tomorrow!

Nursing school and other updates for 2010

Okay! So, one posting a year is enough, right? Hahaha!

To update:
Casey is about to start 1st grade, Aurora is finally going to start preschool, and Evelyn is 2 -- in every aspect and loving it. The newest screaming meanie is Samuel Mason Fisher, born on April 8th of this year.

I began my Bachelor of Science--Nursing degree on July 12th of this year. While I am mostly enjoying the coursework and my classmates, sometimes I wonder if I've gone insane, attempting school with a newborn and 3 other kids who need me.

Mark's work hasn't been going well for the last 9 months. Work to do is scarce and his income is suffering correspondingly. On the plus side, Jerry Seiner (who owns the parent company) is a very nice man to work for and at least Mark still has a job. We have to count our blessings on that.

I promise to start posting more often. I am trying to set up a goal project and blogging is a good way to keep track of that. Catch you later!
