I just realized it's been over a week since I've posted anything. And I have a ton to catch up on!
We managed to test drive three types of cars, the RAV-4, the CRV, and the VUE. I think we're leaning strongly toward the RAV-4. We really like the hidden storage, the back gate opens to the side, and I think we'll be able to get the 4x4 version. (important, given last winter's 100+ inches of snow!)
I've had to reschedule getting my haircut 3 times, which puts me almost a month overdue. I'm going to attempt to get it cut tomorrow night, but may have to take Alex with me so Craig can go visit the car dealership without a 3 year old climbing all over him. JOY! I'll pack lots of snacks, books and toys.
My book club finally met last week, too. We hung out by the fire pit, sipping wine, snacking on smores, talking too loud (me) and discussing a pretty great book, "Belong to Me" by Marisa de los Santos. It's the continuation of her first novel, "Love Walked In." "Belong to Me" was good, but the author's style changed a bit. This one wasn't as lyrical as the first one. Still, it was a great story with characters we already knew and loved. It was my turn to pick, so I selected, "The Girls" by Lori Lansens. Looks like a good one!
So in case you've wondered what's been happening with me, I've just been busier than usual. Not a bad thing, but I've just been so busy I haven't had much time to read or write much of anything lately. My event a week ago went very well. I need to dig through and see if any of my pictures turned out. Race for the Cure is next weekend. I'm hoping to get in two or three more traning runs this weekend. Thanks to all of you near and far who donated! If you still would like to donate, check out my giving site by clicking here. I'm hoping I'll be able to run the whole 5K! I know I can do it! So that's it. Life is just super busy right now. I've got another post I'm going to schedule for this week. Hopefully October will be a little more calm!

We just went through the car buying process. We ended up getting another Jetta. We already have a Durango so had to go with a fuel conscious car to balance the guzzler :)
Send some hair vibes my way. I'm in desperate need of a trim/cut, but am not sure when I can go without a 19 month old monkey jumping around anywhere.
Have fun training!
Good luck with the car buying AND Race for the Cure. You're awesome...I KNOW you can go the whole 5K!
Good luck with your race! Michael just ran his first marathon in July, in honor of his mom who passed from breast cancer about 4 years ago.
I need to read Belong to Me. I really enjoyed Love Walked In. The book club meeting sounds great!
Good luck with the car buying! We will be getting ready to do the same shortly...I have no patience with it, but that works well for sitting with the sales associate.
I am in dire need of a haircut...it will be 3 months in October! Ugh.
