Update

So, yes. I suppose an update is greatly needed. I am once again, okay with being labeled as a slacker in the blogging department. Whatever.
I'm trying to recall where I left off the last time. I am actually in my last week of bootcamp...its been a long rough road, but has been rewarding thus far. I finally got new running shoes, which made all the difference as after about Week 3, I was suffering from tendonitis in my achilles, from increasing my mileage to quickly (that was not a good time.) I will take 2 weeks off (as I have to have painful things removed from my feet) but plan to get back into bootcamp again, after that. I despise running, but it truly has made a difference. I now can do 15-20 boy pushups in a row, whereas before bootcamp, I would be lucky to do one. So, I suppose thats an improvement right there.

The beginning of this month, J and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary in Charleston. 5 years has truly flown by quickly. It is amazing to me, how far we have come.

Our tour guides, Pat and Ricky
Us!

I also hit the big 2-5 this year last week... SIGH. We celbrated with friends and finally had the chance to spend some quality time together, which was really nice.

J is still as busy as ever with racing. The season is going really well so far, so we are thrilled about that.

In other, extremely important news....................

I am a College Graduate! Thats right- no more school for me! I can't believe it is finally over...it is a wonderful feeling. I'm currently at a loss since I am no longer occupying my time with endless papers and homework. I have my Bachelors Degree, and a double major of Management and Criminal Justice. It is truly an amazing feat!

That is about it for us. I'm sure I have left things out...but there is always next time. We are headed to the beach in a few weeks, so I am sure I will post then.

Many Hugs,

S
