accomplisments!

Ok...I've been bad. I know I know. I'm trying to balance geocaching, running/yoga, horsey time, puppy time, work, and just general life stuff. I know..that's just life though :) My only other excuse is that there hasn't been too much interesting stuff worth noting. BUT I did forget to blog that we did find the waterfall cache!!! I was really excited to get back to that little park area and we took our brazo's and GPS and looked for about 1 hour and were just abt to call it a day. We mainly went back there since someone had found it after we all tried. Well we were leaving and I asked Mike if we looked at this one rock area and lo and behold.......ammo geocache!!! YAY!!!!! BIG accomplishment feeling. We ended up finding another one that day but didn't make it out to the other ones we wanted to. I'm hoping to get out to Butner and look this w/e if weather permits. Other big news is I"m in LOVE with my asics. I've always been a Brooks girl but was having really bad shin splints and gave it some time but no avail. Ended up trying a pair of asics and really felt the cushioning. First walk/jog felt like I was on pillows. A while later and NO shin spints! Hallejuah! It feels so good to be able to walk/run on various terrain and hills at different speeds without pain. (Well no shin pain anyway ;)! ) Haven't uploaded and my mi is getting angery but I'll do that soon. Anyway hope all is well with everyone!

update

Well, it's been crazy few days here. Work has been VERY hectic and I've been so drained but got recharged today after a nice horseback ride. It's been so crazy cold that I haven't been able to go out there since Monday. Luckily tt got up to 70s today! Bad thing is Magic is starting to shed out his winter coat so I really hope the groundhog is wrong because I don't want my baby to get too cold. He didn't feel like working too hard today (who does!) but I had a good ride none-the-less. It's amazing how much better I felt after my ride though.
Update news is Mike is doing better overall. As some of you know we spent most of yesterday and part of today in the ER. Mike has been having low back pain and yesterday he had a fever and so we went to Urgent Care. They wanted to do more testing since they suspected meningitis so we had to go to the ER. SEVERAL hours later and after an LP they ruled out meningistis and Rocky mountain spotted fever (which they threw around a bit) Mike still has back pain but is doing better overall. He took some pain pills and took a nap when I went to see our boys. He's even thinking of going to the barn tomorrow. We'll see and keep you updated if any major changes happen.

Seriously?!?!?!?!?
