I vow...

To be more active!

And with this vow, comes fantastically fun 5k's!!!

Like this one:

The Color Run: Colorado

Now, I must be honest, I'm not a runner. I suck at running. BUT, I'm willing to give anything a try. Last year I ran my first 5k. I believe it took me 45 minutes. Which isn't too bad. But I'd love to be even more fit and ready to do this one so I don't feel like I'm just dragging my friend behind me!

So, alas, comes yet another workout plan!

Maybe with a goal like the 5k itself, I can manage to get something going...

Can I live a city life in the country???

So, after a slight addiction to Polyvore in the last 2 posts...I'm back with words...

I'm wondering if I can carefully harness my artistic, city side regardless of living (I'm not kidding) in the middle of the country! Granted, I do live in a "town"...it's unincorporated...but the streets aren't paved and there's a field behind that loves to blow it's silly corn husks right on into my yard!


I don't want to deny my country roots...who would!? Makes me hard working, confident, and just a little rough around the edges.


What I do want is to add in some quirky colors...interesting hair choices...funky accessories...and my camera!


I want to wear funky socks...


Big rings...


Flowers in my hair...


Scarves...


Big floppy hats...

Big sunglasses...



Then I want to take photos...


In Black and White...

In Color...


Of Marlee trapsing through life...


Of odd things I see in town...

Of artistic quality...



Is it possible?! I mean, if you read this a know where I live, would it really be hard for Greeley/Lucerne, Colorado to be a little bit more city and a little less country!?



Side note: I read today that Denver, CO is #5 on the city list for staying YOUNG! Heck yeah, come graduation from college...I'm totally moving to Denver!


Speaking of college...turns out all my classes from 7 years ago are still going to count! Check off one year of classes!!! WHOO!!!

It's been far too long...

This blog has been sorely neglected. It makes me slightly sad. I was not in a place over the last 9 months to keep up with it. But now I'm asking myself to find me...

With that, I'm going to seek out my artsy-fartsy little person inside...

She's into mismatched outfits, gaudy jewelry, and crazy amounts of books...

She's going to streamline her house and get rid of the things she's hoarding for no reason at all...

Yep...simple life...

I look forward to it! I look forward to nurturing Marlee in a life that we don't need every bit of technology under the sun!

Also...I'm going back to school...

Social sciences with a minor in psychology!

I want to be a social worker someday...

Yep...me...

She's coming out...

Oh and she's definitely losing this dumb weight...

Motherhood Knot Tattoo

Last night, I got my Celtic Motherhood knot..and I LOVE it! :)

Easter is coming and Marlee loves chocolate...here's the proof:


In other news, it's hard being a single mom. I'm not sure how I do it every day. I think it's because I don't think past the present right now. I'm going day to day and I know it's hard on the people around me. Each morning I have to find care for Marlee and I should be thinking ahead and letting people know...but I can't. My brain just isn't working that way...


I wish there was a dummy manual for it all...anyone know of one!?
