Happy Fall!!

Hey everyone!!

Seems like ages ago that I did a post!  So, here's another one!!  ;)

October 2nd and it feels like fall!  The sun finally decided to come out and play!   The trees are changing colors and they look so beautiful!  I am so ready for the football season, apples, pumpkins and much much more this fall!

A few things that I am going to try and do this fall....

1:  I want to run a 5k!  I did the Detroit Wild Run in August and I did it in 47.19 minutes!  That was my first ever 5k!  I think I did okay for my first time.  I didn't run as much as I would have liked to, but there's always next time!  I want to see if I beat it!  And that next time is the Hot Chocolate 5k, here in Chicago, in November.  I am so excited to run this one!  You get chocolate afterwards!!!  How cool is that!!  There are few people that are going to run with me on this one!  I am very excited to start to train again!  The friend who is running with me and I start training next Monday!  We are going to run after work every Monday and Wednesday!  I have something to look forward to on Mondays instead of just work!  So, you'll see the progress of the training here!

2:  I joined a gym!  Me, the lazy couch potato, joined a gym!  I would like to try to work out a few times a week there and run.  So, if I could get into a groove and start to get healthy, that would be AMAZING!!!

3:  I want to do the 30 Day Closet Challenge!!  If you have never heard of it, here you go.  So, for 30 days you have to wear stuff from your closet and not buy any new clothes!!  So, I am going to start on Sunday!  So, expect to see my clothes for a 30 days!  I did it once before, let's see if I can do it again!  Shall we???

4:  I want to cook more and explore more recipes!  Phil and I are always eating out and not cooking dinner every night.  I need to do more cooking!  I need to find recipes that I can start on Sunday and put in the crock pot throughout the week!  I just have to clean out the freezer first!!!

5:  I would love to go apple picking!!  If anyone wants to join in, let me know!  I just have to find a place!!  ;)

I think that's it for now!

Until Sunday.....
