getting settled
well, we have been here a couple of weeks and getting settled in. so far so good. ive sent off for my nursing license and should get those pretty soon, then ill look for a job, just a couple days a week. we have had snow a couple of times, and last night we had about an inch but it was gone by lunch time. thomas is enjoing his job. im getting to know stuff around here and getting our apt set up. i brought some stuff from home but not alot, just to make it kinda home.
im not going to be signing up for mm08. it would be just to hard. i dont know just how often ill be home im hoping that when i am, mark wont mind if i come run with ya'll,,ill have to ask him about that. i did join a gym right after we got here and did get a personal trainer that will work with me a month, she knows i want to do another marathon and shes helping me stay on course for that. working stuff that i didnt do before, in fact right now i cant squat at all, ha, my quads are killing me and my stomack is sore to touch, ha,,shes tough but good. they have a trail run out at lake kentucky in march.. they have like a 26.3k 50 miler and even farther,, so needless to say, im gonna try and do the 26k one..one of the men that thomas works with has done it and said it was fun. so ill see.
kids are doing good,, just getting settled back in there routine again. jake took the LSAT for law school and did pretty good, good enough to get into ole miss law school but hes taking again.. he will graduate in may... haley is doing good at state, hes in Physical thearpy, a hard major but well worth the time and effort when he finishes.
ill be home the 1st week in feb for about a week. ill write mark and see if he minds me coming and visiting. i see ya'll will be at different locations this time. ill prob go to the res.
hope your all doing well,, write sometimes.. kinda lonesome up here right now..
found a church so that will help also..
take care all, hope to see you all soon
love and miss you all

paducah
hey all,
we made it here alright, thomas went to work monday and ive been looking for somewhere to live,, lucked up today and found a really nice apt in a nice area. i had checked earlier and the sign on the office door said no vacanies but i decided i might call that next day, and she said that just that morning someone had come in, so thats good. we decided on not trying to buy a house or renting one so we wouldnt have to mess with a yard. so today ive just been riding around town trying to learn it. we cant move into the apt until jan, so we will come home thanksgiving, and ill stay adn thomas will go back and work, come home for santa then we will drive back around the 1st to move in. all falling into place but im sure homesick.
there are 2 nice hospitals in the area so after we get all settled in ill start looking for a job. ive been keeping up with my running. they have a nice gym in the hotel. and several gyms in town, ill join when i get back.
hope your all doing good and training is going good for you all.
take care, and ill keep you all up on whats going on.
miss you all

packing up
just wanted to touch base with everyone,, been backing up this weekend, :-( but its alright, its one of those good -- bad things in life,,, ill be fine..
have been keeping up with my running and walking, i dont want to lose what i got
i am signing up for MM08 although i dont know if i will be there that 1st meeting but ill be there as many as i can,, mark has trained us well, we know what to do, just i need the guidance to keep it up, and ya'll support!
hope your all well and enjoying this cooler weather,
thomas comes in tues and we head out thursday, going to starkville 1st and staying the night with haley, then on to oxford to spend the day and night with jake then on up to paducah to try and find a hotel or one of those extended hotels, thats most likely what we will do,until we can decide on just what will be best. from when we get up there until after the 1st of the year we will be kinda coming and going from there to here because of the holidays, so ill have time, while hes working. ive already checked they have a Golds Gym im going to join and have contacted the paducah running club, and they run every saturday at 5am, ill feel just like at home,, well not really, i wont see ya'll's face..
take care, and ill keep in touch and ya'll do the same
love and miss you all
