Stay-At-Home-Mom

I'm playing stay at home mom for the next 6 weeks. Yep... I'm finished with school, but won't officially graduate until May 10th, which means I get to sit around until then and become acquainted with the homebody attitude. So far... so good. But I'm already feeling the itch to get out and do something. I made a large check-list this morning, and all but 2 things have been marked off.... and it's not even noon. I should slow down I guess.

One of the things on the to-do list was to apply for my Nevada veterinary license. I can hardly believe I'm finally going to be a veterinarian. There will be no more "what do you want to be when you grow up?" I think I'm finally a grown-up now.... maybe.

So if anyone has any spare time to pop on down to Baton Rouge, I'll gladly accept company :)

Tortoise and the Hare

Shel and I are trying our hand again this year for the Crescent City Classic 10K in New Orleans. It was so much fun last year! So many people dressed up in costumes, the fire department came out to cool us down with the water hoses, and bands were playing all along the 6.2 mile route. Shel and I are going to dress up this year. We were thinking of The Tortoise and The Hare theme. I, of course would be the tortoise with my snail paced 12 minute mile. However, I have a pink tutu that I am dying to wear, so I'll take on the character of the Hare. If I remember correctly, the tortoise wins anyway :) I'll try to post pictures in our race attire.
