Free Your Mind Fridays

1.)  So I am starting to freak out about the homemade Christmas...again.  I started gathering fabrics and ideas last month and to date have only finished about 6 inches on a knitting project and cut out pieces for another gift.  I know there is still 2 months but I just feel I should be getting more done.  Of course I go through this every year and curse my way through the final 2 weeks until Christmas however I always manage to get it done!  I'm just really trying to prevent the giant stressball the week before Christmas this year, but I'm afraid I'm failing at it!

2)  I am so excited that I got picked to be a chaperone on my sons first field trip!  I'm still having a hard time getting over the fact that they even go on a field trip but it's nice to be able to experience that "first".  One day I'll have to let go, but not yet!

3)  I finally ran again last night.  I'm trying for 3 days a week but have not been doing so well with that.  Something is better than nothing I suppose.

4)  I'm going apple picking tomorrow and am probably too excited about it!  I've been wanting to go for forever and a friend of mine mentioned she has also wanted to, so we're going.  I can't wait to have lots of yummy homemade applesauce to enjoy!  And perhaps an apple pie too.

5)  So some of you may remember the idiotic things people said to me when I broke my arm.  Well they are not any better when you are running with a knee brace on!  The 2 main ones have been that "I can't believe your running if you have a bad knee" and the look (or comments) which says that it's unbelievable a petite young person can have a bad knee!  Well let me tell you I have terrible knees that aren't gonna get any better so you learn to deal with it.  I'm starting to wonder if people have anything better to do with their time than be rude!

I think that's enough complaining for one morning.  Time to hop in the shower and enjoy a nice cup of tea while the little one is asleep!  As always for more randomness check out Alexis over at The Well Read Mom.

  1. No, people do not have anything better to do than be rude and intrusive. So there you go...

  2. I could understand if you were running in a cast...but a lot of people wear braces for support while running. Don't let the uninformed masses bother you, just direct their attention at speedo man :)
