Couch to 5k is my newest and greatest endeavor. I just started last week, but I like it so far. I have always wanted to be a runner, but never got my ass up and did it. I decided that this time enough was enough, and I was gonna push myself to become one somehow.
I read many great reviews on the couch to 5k and figured why not me. Running sets me free, and I just feel like it's just the world and I when I'm doing it. I have decided that my overweight 7 year old yellow lab is going to train with me. LOL. He is on day 2, and has done such a good job. I'm falling in love all over again with Kramer. I have always loved him, but I will be honest that in the last few years he had become more of a nuisance rather than a fond family pet.
We have many great memories with him, and I love him very much, but life had just gotten to busy for him. I know it sounds mean, and I sound like an awful pet owner, but I'm being honest. I dont think he was getting what he deserved. I've kind of found renewed my love for him recently, and I want to make the second half of his life the best it could be. He's a gentle beast and puts up with a lot of Andrea's crap. I too want her to grow up with him, and fall in love with him like I did. He's a loyal friend that has been there for me through all of my up and downs.
When I lost Gabriel I spent a lot of time crying with him right by my side. The least I can do is get him into shape and have a fruitful second half.

Still here
So I said I was going to go back to blogging back in June, and I failed to do so. :( Life is so much busier in the summer months. Been bike riding a lot with Andy, taking her to different camps and activities. It's been quite the summer so far, and it's not over yet.
My brother's wedding was awesome, and the entire week leading up to it was definitely one of the most fun in my entire life. Spending all the time we did with my entire family was just what my heart needed. It was exhausting, but worth every second.
This summer is totally becoming what I had wanted it to. It's all about my Andy, and making sure she's enjoying herself to the fullest. I wanted to spend as much quality time with her as I can.
We are unsure of when we will try for another baby still. We are both very afraid of going through all the pain all over again. Two times has been more than enough for me, and I dont know what a 3rd loss would do to me. I lost the itch for another baby for a while, but now I feel it coming back which is kind of exciting, but at the same time very nerve wrecking. I guess I can only leave it up to God to let me know when the time is right.
Gabriel has been on my mind a lot of course, and I can't believe it's been so long since he went away. He would have been almost 4 months old. Wow! What would my baby have been like? I can only imagine I guess.
