Merry Christmas

Hi everyone. This is just a quick update.

We got to go to the mountains.Yes the kids got to see snow and tube in it.I have pictures!!!! We were going to leave today and head home,but it is raining and if the tempature drops 3more degrees it is going to snow!!! And it is pouring ing the Carolina's so do not want to get caught up in the traffic again.

I hope that everyone had a great Christmas!!

We went to breakfast and one of the family's house and then we came back and started project surprise present. The kids wanted to go to E's sister's house,I sais no so they would come home to change. We came home.E's Dad open the garage and got everyone in the house and then we got the kids upstairs and E's Dad put the presents on the pourch. Then E ahd small person go to the car. SM comes running back in and yelling there are 2 presents on the porch. So they both went out and brought them in.Frogger went in to opening gift mode. In the large boxes was three gifts.SM was having a hrad time. Then Frogger opened one and he started to jump around yelling, smiling,screaming thank you and saying I didn't know I was getting one!!!!!! SM started to cry from being so happy. I am so glad that this worked out and E's parents got a kick out of it andSM said that was so sneeky,and the best surprise yet!!!! and now we haven't heard from them since they got the PSP's.

Ok Team Voice there is only 6 days left in this year and the new year challenge will be out on the first.Are you ready?? You can go over to the All About The Mouse forums and and post questions and comments and advice and let everyone know if you are doing any local runs and post your stats,what you are doing,if you have joined a gym,personal trainer,weight watchers,anything and you can post it here too.

Trip Report on Project Surprise

We made it here. It took 20 hours to get here. What normally takes 13 hours. We stopped to eat for breakfast it took 2 hours! Then we got caught up in traffic for 2 hours! We still do not know why. But it was worth it when the kids saw the Kings mountain. their faces,reaction,was so neat!

Then the reaction of E's dad when he saw us in his livingroom it was so priceless! It was so worth it.

Today we just rested and I have to cook my pies and wrap presents.

Tomorrow we are going to Wintergreen,tubing in the the mountains in the snow.They will finally get to see snow. They keep saying that its not going to snow on Christmas Day. I still have my fingers crossed.

I am on my blackberry so no pictures!

Happy Holidays!

Project Surprise In Full Swing

Mongello!!!!

First did anyone watch the Biggest Loser Finale??? Holy Cats!!!! They all lost a lot of weight.The one person had lost a whole entire person my size!!!! See alot of hard work and time.It is possible. I think the most of it will be for me is changing eating.I have changed a lot but I know I can do better. How about you???

OK tomorrow back to work.Also tomorrow we are having our Christmas party at work.6p. While I am still working. E will be coming up and bringing the kids and a surprise for my dear friend M.{ if everyone doesn't know by now I like to surprise those I feel that are special in my life} Yes everyone is bringing a covered dish. Me I am cooking homemade cookies and of course they are not going to be high in calories and all natural. Plus I am making enough to take with us to Virginia. BTW.. we will be leaving on Saturday for project Surprise!!! A I hope you are reading this. { i love surprises!!!!} I didn't forget my homemade pumpkin pies.
We rented a 300 M to drive up in. I have been driving it for a couple of days and I really like this car. {pictures later}
I can't wait!!!!! Sunday!!!!!! { I will let everyone in on it after it happens} Oh Yes I will be wearing my AATM shirt to get new pictures!!!!!!

And I can not wait till Christmas. My kids do not think they are getting a PSP for Christmas. I have them convinced they are not, since I can not find the ones they want.What I do on Christmas morning I pick my largest coffee mug{stitch I hate mornings} And I make them wait till I have my first cup of coffee.Of course I do not fill it full{32 oz} They are nearly jumping out of there skin!!!!!! Then we let them open their gifts. I save the best ones of last.Like last year I forgot 2 presents behind the tree, and they sat there until one of the kids fund them. That was about 2p. That was so cool :) . This year We are going to wrap the PSP after we get up there in a really big boxes. Then we are going to have E's Dad put them om the front porch with their names on them.Ring the door bell. Have them bring them in and open them and go through the big boxes and I JUST CAN NOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!! :) Yes it is cruel but I love the surprise of it!!!!!! They both will be doing a dance. I just know it. :)

Then I have E's birthday.Three weeks later. I was thinking of having a surprise party on the 5th. That is a Saturday before. Cause we will be in Disney the weekend just after his birthday,but I have that planned out too. :) So if I know when your birthday is be careful you may never know What I may do. :) {grinning}

Out with The Old....

This morning I got up and decided to go through my closet and see what I had to wear.Since we are going to Virginia and it has been cold.Well I am glad I went through my closet. I CAN wear clothes I have not worn since the 2nd year of my marriage{within the time of 2000-2005}.Guess what?They all fit and I do not like how the clothes fit me.So out they go. I have been down on myself lately and I needed this pick me up today. I think this was the push I needed to get back out there and get in my groove.Granted I have long road ahead.I am so proud of me. :)

We will not be doing the 5k in Daytona Beach this year. We just found out the dates to small person's band concerts and they will not jive. So we will do the local 5k.On the 25 th?I am looking to beat my old time. :)

Yes I have really long hair I think over in my photo's list on the right under Epcot there are a couple of E and I and my hair is down. I am cutting it and I am going to let the stylist work her/his stuff.

On The 6th Day of Christmas.....

Today I want to say thank you to those of you out there that have donated toys to send to Hope Runs for their kids. I am sending those out today.And also a big thank you to those who sent clothes as well. It's all going out today.

I have been having problems with my computer so I have not been able to post up any pictures from Mouse Fest. I have 1100 pictures from it all.I can get it to pull up some but not all.I am sorry.We are working on it. :(

We go and pick up our rental car today.Why today ? Because it is cheaper to get it now and keep it for 10 days than it would for only 5 days. Crazy.

I have not done any type of training.None, zero. I lost my grove.I just don't have in me lately to do that. I know better but it has been hard.I should be out there working on my time we have a 5k in late Jan. 2008.At the Daytona Beach international speedway.I just can't get my arse out the door. Then the Minnie in May. I am hoping that E's sister has a course mapped out while we are there and maybe I will get back in the grove.

Blah Blah Blah......


Today we all need to take a moment and remember Walt E.Disney. Today back in 1965 he past away.

So are you finished Holiday shopping? We are now is the hard part trying to pack it in a car without disturbing the wrapping paper.
So If I was reading correctly Byran is running the 1/2M 2008?? If so how cool!! We have 2 in the 2008 this coming year.
We are trying to figure out how to work around the kids going back to school after the holiday break for 09 as well Jeff. Mine don't have mid terms till late Feb.-Mar. My oldest wants to run in the 1/2M. I am not sure if I want my small person too. I may let her she did so well at TOT13k. We will see during the Minnie.

OK In Jan.08 I am planning to do a huge thing. I am going to get my hair cut. Yes I really am. I have found a salon that will donate it to Locks of Love. I haven;t had a hair cut in a long time.It goes all the way down to my back side. Then I was thinking on letting them style it any way possible. Scary.......

This one is short. So have a great weekend.I have to work in the AM.

Most Wonderful Time Of The Year..

This Holiday season remember all the fun,family and friends. Trimming the tree or the Menorah. What ever you and your family do for the holidays enjoy it.Don't sweat the small stuff.Enjoy every minute you have,like it was your last day and Have a Happy Holiday.


I had a lot of fun last weekend. Meeting new people and making new friends. Putting faces and voices together. We had no children with us .That was the strange part but it was nice. Our first time seeing the parks in holiday attire.Beautiful. I am not sure if we will make Mouse Fest next Year since it will be so close to the 1/2M. That is when I would like to spend more than the weekend there.Maybe a week. Still planning.We already have plans for next October with the JB family.{TOT13k} {race for the taste 10 k}



Oh yes before I forget. Our small person here has made the All county band.The first in the school to be a 7th grader to make it and be 8th chair out of 20?. Well small person thinks that we are not excited about it. Well since small person is on restriction due to low grades I can say that I am hopping to get tickets that go on sale tomorrow for Hanna Montana.I plan on getting up and sitting at ticket master at 4am to get them. {whew} Like we did for Hilary Duff.



Jonathan??? Hello..... Are you still here??
Just wondering haven't heard from you in almost a week now.

Team Voice News... I posted the pace requirements over at All About the Mouse. From the marathon to the goofy challenge to the 5k. They have already removed the Minnie Marathon weekend.Over at Disney Running they have a link for registration. I will be registering the 4 of us when we get back from holiday.



I have not been keeping track of my meals, so I won't be posting them.I will track them during holiday so I can start from there. I was looking into moving from the gym we have now planet fitness, over to the 24 hour fitness. They offer a better rate with aerobic classes,low impact ones,a pool,and better rate with a personal trainer,and a nutritionist.

Train hard,have fun, stay injury free!!!

Holiday Pacing

It's been tough the last couple days back at work.Trying to Maintain and not to over indulge. The patients and their family members bring in food and the doctors, and all of us bringing in stuff. Plus Christmas parties.It is hard. Just remember allowing yourself to have a treat is good just don't over do.You will feel it later.

I have not trained the last couple days.My right foot arch is hurting.It has became painful.I will head out to the gym and cross train on the bike.See I can't get out of it.

We are going to Virginia for the Christmas holiday.E hasn't seen his family since October TOT 13k.And his Dad has no clue that we are coming.We will be leaving after I get off work on Sunday 12/23, and we should get up there 7-9a Christmas Eve.The kids haven't seen snow.That is our goal to take them to see snow.Hopefully E's Sister has a walking / jogging trail mapped out. Hi A can't wait to see you guys!!!!!!!!
And E's sister is joining me in May to do the Minnie Marathon Weekend. But she needs to go over and get her All about the mouseketeer number!!!! And We are going to add you to Team Voice!!!
Speaking of there is now a section just for Team Voice I will put up the list of who that I know that is in Team Voice.,and if you are in a race or races,or just cheerleading. I will post the pacing requirements there and linking up the courses and stuff. Yes and challenges for the next month,and maybe a surprise for who ever finishes the challenge first.

My thoughts From Mouse Fest 07

We are back from our trip and I am a day late in trip report. I had to work On Monday and it was crazy busy and I was so tired when I got home I just sat down and fell asleep.

Mouse Fest 07, I am at lost for words right now. We had so much fun to be around adults.First trip with out kids. I always felt like I was forgetting something. {It was the missing of the children.}

Ok I have to say Sunday was hard. It was our last afternoon in the parks, and after meeting everyone,and spending time with everyone and seeing and feeling all the support,for Jonathan and Bryan all About The Mouse.
Team Voice that was an idea that is now live and has true meaning.
It is all overwhelming.
I am not good at good byes. I wasn't going to say anything to anyone, but I did.We were at Lou's trivia meet and what a turn out for that!!! And I learned a lot form Lou that day. Thanks Lou!!!! Cograts to Byron for wining the ipod shuffle!!!!

I was just going to quietly leave but I didn't.We waited till they were done with the last round of trivia so we could say see ya later. Jonathan and Amber are beautiful people,and I am blessed to say you are my friends. I won't get to see you guys again til January 09. I wish we all could have spent more time with you guys but there will be a next time and I am looking forward to that. Team Voice Rocks!!!!!

Bryan,It was so much fun to watch you with all the craziness,from the 2 meets and see how much you enjoyed yourself.And you and Jonathan are a great fit for Magic and Mayhem!! Just let us know when you are going to the Kingdom and maybe we can meet you 2 there one time.And you lucky person you...... You were able to help Charles Ridgway out with his books!!!! Awesome!!!!!!!!! All About The Mouse has great things happening. Team Voice!!!!!!

You will be the first one to run the 1/2 M since this all has started. Are you excited?! I am And you are running it!!!!!!!! We will be there to cheer you on from the beginning to the end!!!!

What Next ??

There is a lot of what next.

First I am going to do some updating.

I haven't walked/jog since Friday. MY right foot was hurting to much to do anything.Still is.I went to our local Runner's Depot and got fitted for shoes. My ankles turn in when my foot strike the ground. And I have been wearing the wrong type of support running shoes. The last pair the would not even allow their worst enemy buy. {OOOPs} I tried on 12 pairs and walked all over the store.None of them were giving the support that I need. So finally He came out with Motion control shoes. Now the pressure point on my arch is not hurting. I went through all of the ones for that. We had to wait till Sunday before buying a pair of shoes.They didn't have a pair they wanted me to try. My arch is father up on my foot and the arch in most of the shoes is placed back.So I wore a tender spot on my foot.Plus I think it is also tendinitis. We went back and I ended up with a Motion control shoe by Brooks. I love them. They have other brands I like but they were affordable. I will be going back to get my shoes for work with them and they gave us a wealth of information for running groups.

I will be out there pounding the pavement today.

Mouse Fest the Boss knows I will not be there Friday and Sunday. I was unable to switch days with anyone,so I just will call in. I will do that tomorrow at work, That way they know ahead of time and I will remind them on Friday as we are walking out the door.
I can not wait!!!!! It will not be the same without the JB family we will miss all of you dearly. ;)
New friends faces with the voices, being around people who like the WDW as much as I do and I just so can not wait!!!!!! Plus this is our first trip without any kids.I have not been this far away from them for this long. Just E and I in one of my favorite places to be......cccooooollllll!!!!!!
Bringing clothes for cool weather and warm weather,and a poncho in case it rains.
Check list:
trading pins
mouse fest,lanyard,wrist band,pins
reservations
passes
pins
camera,video
carry bag
jogging shoes and attire
E
pins
I am good!!!!!!

What next Jonathan ask.
I think this month challenge for Team Voice should be maintaining .
Why.This is holiday season,the pressure to not gain is already there,and we all are stressing.
To keep things moving, just maintain and then we start in Jan 08. So think of ideas and challenges we can do as Team Voice. And Remember we need to support Kate for she is running the 1/2M in 2008!!!! I will be there for cheer leading,and the Dream Team Lou is running.
So maintaining will be good for this month.What do we all say to that??? Holiday Maintenance 07.

I have not made very good food choices this last week and I am willing to admit it and I feel bad for it. I have weighed and I am at 215.I haven't moved. I have been bouncing between 213-215. So I am in third place now,but no one has made it to 299 or 199. So do we continue this challenge since we all haven't reach the goal?

Travel safe,Have fun,See you real soon!!!! Team Voice!!!

A Somber Day

There is no excuse for me not blogging since Wednesday. I was tired.
Today is not to be not a usual blog......

Yesterday morning 6am one of my family members past away. :(
It was my Grandfather. 89 years young.He past in his sleep I was told. He did not want any viewing or any fuss made over him. So I will miss him dearly.He was the Father figure I had growing up and he was there for everything.All my band concerts ,my kids. He bonded with my son and they had a great relationship. My Aunt to care of him as he had got older,and needed help. No nursing home. The last time I was able to see him was last year this time and he had slowed down, but he was aware of all of us and everything going on.

Now he will be able to rest in peace.

Blog later.......

Team Voice

Thanks Jeff!!! That is so cool!!!! If you go over and look in the show notes at All About The Mouse you will see a picture of me and E. We had on our shirts!!!!!

I was asked yesterday How To join Team Voice. Before I answer that question I want to introduce the original mouseketeers. Jonathan, Me, Kate and Jeff.




How to join.
Well that is a very good question Michelle.
1.Be Committed to life changing exercise,take on some of the challenges we create.{so far I am in last place in the last challenge}
2. Blogging even leaving comments is awesome
3. The love for Disney. Don't forget where it all started. It started with a mouse,and a man with a dream. Kinda like Jonathan. He wants to change his life style with exercise and weight loss,maintain it,do some really cool Disney things,and grant a wish or two along the way.
Any money that we raise will go to Jonathan, in turn he sends it to Lou over at www. disneyworldtrivia.com,and it goes to Make A wish to send a child with a terminally ill child to Disney.
4. The Main goal is the 2009 half Marathon at Disney.

I believe that is what brought all of us together. The man, and a mouse and a dream.
Does that sum it up? Any thing any one would like to add?? Please do.

Today was steady busy at work. My legs are sore so no training today.My right calf/shin/knee is not to happy today. Tomorrow we will be going to a local running shop to be fitted for shoes.

I did 2.5 miles yesterday in 38: 05:45.How is that??? I put in 2 runs and did all speed walking after that{ that goofy walking}. E now believes I can do way better at speed walking than running.I was able to control my breathing and keep my pace. {big grin} So now that is what I will be working on. Speed walking.

Meals:
B: bagel (2),egg whites(1),super greens (2)
coffee on way to work
B: oatmeal(2),yogurt,(2),cocoa(2)
L: turkey blt wrap,blue chips,2 sugar free cookies,I do not know the points I will find out.
D: turkey wrap Will find out.

I will join Weight Watchers in Jan.08. Still looking in to the personal trainer, to help get me kick started. I have a green light from the doctor,and I have bought a garmin forerunner 50. It will track everything I do,and gps.

One week from Friday We will be at Disney meeting everyone at Ak!!!!! I am so excited!!!!
and we will be having our first Team Voice gathering,Awesome!!!!!

Blustery Day

Yesterday was a busy day. We went to the Hot Wheels event at K-Mart. Did pretty good. It's really windy here today.

We have been getting holiday decorations down. I love this holiday. When we are done I will post a picture.

No running yesterday got to get it in today. Today will be the long one.
On Friday I received and e-mail from the owner of Disney Running. I was asked if I would allow him to put my pictures and story on his site. I agreed. I have never had anyone do that before. Here is the link.
http://www.disneyrunning.com/07tot13kreportrmc.html




So what does everyone think of Team Voice 09'??

I thought of it when I kept reading and hearing Jonathan saying The Voice.
E has drawn up some really neat designs for shirts.I will bring them with us and shown Jonathan . I see Team Voice as a branch of support not just for Jonathan but for all of us on the quest of health and running. And helping Jonathan raise money for sending a ill child to Disney through Lou's Dream Team project.

We all will be getting together for the first time on the 8th.

I only hope that we don't lose sight of one thing - that it was all started by a mouse.

Look What I Found....

Check this out. I forgot about this..


I found the Minnie Marathon Weekend 2008 schedule and courses. The first weekend in May.
The 5k is in Epcot. That is going to be on Saturday morning. Maintain 15 minute mile pace. Receive a shirt and a Minnie medal.
The 15k is 9 miles and you must maintain a 15 minute mile pace. Sunday morning. It starts at Animal Kingdom, then through Hollywood studios,then through some resorts,and then in to Epcot and end in front of Spaceship earth. The 15k is only.90 miles longer than the TOT13k. Hmmmm....... They also have transportation for these races too.

I would like to do this. Everyone here is for it. I wonder if I can shave off those seconds to maintain a 15 minute mile?? I sure would hate to be scooped. I have to get this breathing under control. If I can do this 15k and maintain the pace, I can do the 1/2M. FJ said it won't be the same since JB won't be there to run with him. AWE........

E thinks I should get a personal trainer in Jan. after the holidays. I so agree.He also said I should join weight watchers.He thinks that would give me the kick in the butt,I need. Thoughts?? Also E thinks we need to train during the daylight hours than in the evening. That will be real hard with my schedule.

Dinner yesterday:
Turkey,ham,mashed potato's ,stuffing,green bean cass.,slice of apple,slice of pumpkin. I used my 1/2 c to serve myself,and I did not go back of seconds, and i had small slices of pie.
We also had a raw veggie platter we made.We used fat free dip and baked chips.

Today:
B pancakes and mixed fruit,OJ
L:
D:

I have to get back in to the gym. And get out there and do my 2.5 miles. Road block.I am having the bloating and pain I had at the race.{13k} It has nothing to do with the race.Or anything we ate. It's that monthly visitor. Yep. :(
