Bowling Nite

We had a great time bowling last nite at Island Strikz. The kids had been saying they wanting to go cosmic bowling for a while so we decided we better hurry and do it before the hustle and bustle of school and work picks back up. We had an amazing time and I just want to let everyone that I am still the QUEEN of Ingram Family Bowling Nites...yes...as well as the undefeated Ping Pong Champ..Just thought I would remind everyone....Luv Ya God Bless and Happy New Year..

Violation of Rights!!

One of the things I dread hearing my husband say is, "I'm taking your car to work today"....whaaaaaaaaat...gasp. The moment that sentence leaves his lips its like my little perfect world comes crashing down. I absolutely positvely HATE driving his truck. Its really manly and bulky and just hard for me to manuever. I am pretty short so I have to use a pillow to see over the dashboard (thats so demeaning)..lol. I feel like Im in a booster seat. I think another reason I dont like it is because I have had an incident in it before..just a tiny one. I scraped another truck JUST LIKE HIS..lol while backing up at the library. To my defense I am so use to driving my own car which has a sensor that comes on when you back up, so when you get to close to something or someone it comes on. I admit I am sort of handicapped by this device, so when backing up at the library I didnt look as thoroughly as I should because I was use to the beep beep beeeeeping of my OWN car. Anywho..thats was last summer sometime and the wound has slowly healed but everytime I have to drive it, I always have flashbacks.
When left with THE TRUCK, I tend to stay at home, and Im wondering if this may be a tactic my husband is using to keep me from shopping. He knows how much I dread driving his truck so when I mentioned shopping last night I should known something , because he was too agreeable..lol.Thats ok, tho, the stores will be still open when he gets home with my car, and it better have GAS, which is another issue. Having to adjust my seats and mirrors and fill my tank BACK up is a whole other post, but until then I guess Im stuck like Chuck cause I aint drivng that truck...

luv ya more than my british dramas (thats a lot of lovin)

On A Vampire Kick..

After watching part one of the last installment of the Twilight series I have been on this Vampire kick. I have started reading the acutal books,whaaat, yes I am appalled at myself but in spite of my judgemental feelings towards myself, I am still reading them..lol. I have acutally borrowed the whole series from a friend and plan on finishing them over my little break from school. I have also started watching this series called Vampire Diaries.its not bad either..my hubby and daughter started watching it too and they have actually taken over and have watched it without me. They have actually finished all the ones on netflix and my daughter is so hooked that she found the newest one online and was watching it last night. Well I dont know why I am so fascinated by this I have just heard that there are so may things that I am missing that are in the book and to get a better understanding of the the movie I am taking this time to read. I know some will judge me...lol.but just know that I am judging myself as well..lol. I should just delete this post..lol..but I know I will look back on this day and LOL..

Jingle Bell 5k Run

A few weeks ago I ran my second competitive race. I really enjoyed it and I had a great time. I actually ran it at the beginning of this month but since I have been in school it has been hard to blog anything. I really wish I had more time to write and maintain this blog but hopefully on this break I can post a few more things.

Ok back to the race....I didnt really train for it I had just been running every other day so to keep my "girlish figure"..lol. A friend told me about the race so I decided to run it last minute and signed up on race day. I ended up doing pretty well. I ran a 27:34 which a marked improvement from my first race which was a 30:38. I really am pround of myself I shaved of a few minutes and I ran it all by myself. My hubby ran the first race with me. I actually ended up placing 3rd in my age category and recieved a nice little metal!!

My next goal is to run a 10k..I have been running 5 miles three times a week for the past two weeks and plan on taking it up to 6 miles next week. There is a 10k race coming up on January 21 and I am thinking about doing it so..wish me luck.
