Thursday Thoughts...

Most of my blog is about my children...as much as I love them it makes me feel like I don't have a life beyond being a mom...which I guess could be true at some times--it just makes me feel fairly uninteresting!
So I thought I'd try to blog about something different every once in a while...
1.
I had Jury Duty this week...it was awful and I cried...in front of the whole court room and the judge--I am traumatized! The case was very similar to the car accident I was in back in 2003 and had been caused by a 21 year old kid who had been drinking--it felt way too familiar for me and I had to explain to the judge that I couldn't be unbiased in the situation because of it...as I explained the car accident and how it impacted so much of my life back then I began to cry--I was so embarassed...the upside--I was excused which means they consider me as having served and I can't be called again for a year...BAD day though!
2.
I am obsessed with Glee...Joe and I rented the first disc of season 1 via Netflix and bought the first season shortly after--we have watched the entire season twice! We don't pay for TV though and have been watching season 2 online a few days after the new episodes come out...I am sad to say I don't enjoy the 2nd season nearly as much as the first...
3.
We are going to Pismo Beach in less than 2 weeks and I am so excited! We look forward to this trip all year long!
4.
I have been toying with the idea of joining a gym--I used to love running but have only done it a few times since having the boys...at this point I am a little bit scared to run because when I do it will show me exactly how out of shape I really am...
5.
Last Saturday night Joe and I got free movie tickets to see Life as we Know it--it was a pre screening type thing, I don't think it comes out until November--although it could come out this month I have no idea...it was actually pretty cute and for being a free movie we both had a great time...since the movie was free we were able to spend a whopping $11 on a small popcorn, large soda, and a water bottle--amazing! We stopped by Coldstone for dessert and came home to sleeping boys and a clean house--thanks Mommie!--We don't get to go out just the two of us very often but landing free movie tickets was the perfect reason for a night to ourselves!
6.
One last thing--my calling right now is in Young Womens, I am the Personal Progress Specialist and I absolutely LOVE it! The girls in our ward are so sweet and I have had such a great time getting to know them! We are trying to move into a house and are looking so hard to stay in our ward because I LOVE being in Young Womens...plus we have some pretty rad people in our ward!

Don't be afraid of running! I was too, but we all have to start somewhere after having kids! I just ran 3 miles today for the first time in who knows how long and I am so excited!.... it totally kicked my butt, but I'm excited nonetheless. I just kept thinking, I may not be "in shape" enough to do this, but I'm too competitive to stop so please don't let me faint on some random sidewalk! Ha ha! I made it home safely. :) I didn't join any gyms... I just used mapmyrun.com to create a route for myself. We'll see how well that works out when it starts raining!
