To write, to run, to live!

Did I ever tell you that I love to write? This blog is a testament to this because it has been ONE FULL YEAR that I have been consistently blogging. Almost as long as I've started up running again.

I think writing and running go hand in hand because one activity is sedentary while the other is rigorous. Facebooking on the other hand is another activity I engage in. Why? Because I spend most of my day with a 1.5 year old and a 3.5 year old. I NEED contact with the outside world. Sometimes, actually, lots of times, I over-do it and lo-and behold so much precious time has passed! BOO. to me!

Becoming aware of this, I've been reciting this mantra to myself: "More Life, Less Facebook" and it has been working quite well for me. Don't get me wrong, I still FB but not as frequently and maniacally as I have been prone to. Now, I'll just write, lol ;D

Let's talk about the benefits: along with a jump in overall productivity, Gerald comes home to a well thought out, wholesome, and hearty dinner made from scratch. So good he says he wants to "bite me" lol! Yesterday, he said the meal I made was 1000% wonderful. He does not exaggerate about food because he knows good from his near pro-chef-status of a momma.

In closing, I read that to hone one's craft, you need to engage in the specified activity more than a couple of times a week. The more the better. To me that means to write and run more. I ran yesterday and the day before and today I did not. I'm frickin' poooooped. For real. So, going forward, I will Write more. Run more. Pray more. Workout more. Cook more. Bake more. Basically Live.... more :)

I hope you have a great evening. Gerald is about to fix us a couple drunken egg nogs and call it a night.

Here's the recipe:

1 shot Southern Comfort
1/2 cup Egg Nog
1/2 cup Milk to thin out the mixture
Stir well
Sprinkle some nut meg to top it off


TTYL (talk to you later.) Tomorrow. PROMISE!

PeacE!
