Happy Friday!

Currently I’m:

eggs

Feeling excited for Easter.

Reading the stacks of magazines I seemed to have subscribed to.

Longing for some spring-like weather.

Laughing at the image in my head of my MIL getting her brisket and the rest of Passover Seder through airport security. 

Crying when I think of Sandyhook. Still.

Looking forward to getting a new phone today. Mostly because Thing 1 is getting my old one and it’s probably the most exciting day in her life. Hello 2 million texts.

Journaling: I’d like to say I’m diligent with my food journal but that is not the case

Celebrating my niece’s 14th birthday next week.

Eating nothing right now, shocking I know. Especially since I had a baking jag yesterday and made apple pie w/oatmeal crumb top, aka heaven in a crust. Thankfully I got it out of the house safely.

Running the washing machine. One of the few chores I enjoy…kind of.

Hoping my jerk knee cooperates at tomorrow’s 5k.

Anticipating throwing myself over an egg at the runners’ egg hunt tomorrow and winning a destination race pkg. to Big Sur with 10 of my running besties. Self-fulfilling prophecy right? One can dream.

Planning ice show and competition costumes for my girls.

Drinking Snickerdandy coffee from A Southern Season in NC.

Missing having a destination race on the calender this year (so far) with my running besties. Tomorrow’s golden egg will change that.

Listening to birdsong before the rest of the house wakes.

Appreciating the sunshine and the many blessings in my life.

What are you _____ing? Anyone racing this weekend? Egg hunting?

    I hear rumors that the midwest is going to have temps in the 60’s the following weekend!!

    Good luck with the egg race, that is an awesome grand prize

    What a fun post, Marcia! And if your MIL is really going to try to get Seder dinner through airport security, I would LOVE to watch that!

    Good luck on your race this weekend!

    Carilyn, oh she indeed tried…and succeeded! I suppose a brisket and some macaroons are no big deal when you can get knives through?

    I’m LOOKING forward to making easter egg rice krispy treats for the kiddos. I saw this really cool idea on Pinterest and I think they’ll love it. 🙂

    Lol about the brisket. I bet the TSA doesn’t screen too many briskest :-).

    Good luck at you 5k tomorrow!

    The thought of your MIL carting around Sader through the airport cracks me up!

    Have fun with your race 🙂

    Good luck today! I’ll text ya. Tara and I are riding for like 5000 hours today, I’ll need a break. Or 50.

    Those eggs are so pretty!! Hope the race went well… I got a sneak peek on instagram, and it looks like it did. 🙂

    No races this weekend but I did a two hour Zumbathon last night. I think that should count for something.

    I hope you get that golden egg! I’d totally throw my body over it. Maybe even one of my kids if needed.

    I’m behind on my mag reading due to blog reading. Much catch up before all the new issues come out.

    I hope that the race went well. I like to listen the birdsongs in early morning too however I am sad because the swallows are not here yet.

    Fun post!! I’m currently SITTING on my butt after riding 35 miles on the training. We’re going swimming soon though!

    Happy Easter!

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
