Living Room: Part 3

I was so excited about how the corner turned out in the living room, I needed just to keep painting!  So I started up after I put Little Miss to bed.  And Cheetah Boy wanted to help.  He had fun painting all over the wall!

 

He is very excited that underneath the paint his drawings and writing will ALWAYS be there.   He did a very good job writing numbers!  Ok, I know I'm skipping ahead a little here, but I can't wait any longer to share how awesome this looks!!!! 

 

 

Don't you just love it?  Oh yeah and there are the new shelves I got.  Wait, I might have already told you that.... I don't know I forget these things!!

 

So the real trick in here is going to be to get all the way up to our super high ceilings again.  And this wall has a ton of windows so it will be even more difficult.  I promised Grumpy I would not get up on the ladder to try to paint all the way to the top unless he is home... I will try to keep that promise.   

 

 

Grumpy is very sad right now.  His Bruins just lost the Stanley Cup Finals.  So I should stop blogging and try to make him feel better.  Poor Grumpy.

 

Oh wait!  I didn't tell you about my weekend running!  Well I ran in Epic Relay, which is a relay race from Portland to Eugene in Oregon.  I ran a total of 10.5 miles, split up between 3 runs, one at about 11am, the next at 9pm and the last at 5am  I was very excited that I was able to run it all!  I actually had not been training, like at all, so I didn't think I was going to be able to.  I am pretty sore today still, but feeling better.  Basically the way these relays work is I am on a team of 12 people and we all take turns running.  It took my team 28 hours to do the whole thing! Sooo you don't really sleep.  We were lucky enough to sleep at our of our team members aunts house for about 2 hours.  And somehow I got to sleep in the spare bed... that was HEATED.  WHAT?!?!?!  I know!  It was awesome.  I didn't sleep, but it was very comfortable and felt good!  It is a pretty crazy time for sure.  But awesome and fun.  I had a beer after my 5 am run!  It felt silly to be drinking at 7am!  Although really I had been up sense about 6am the previous morning!  

 

Grumpy watched the kids while I ran.  Poor Grumpy, Little Miss was crying for Mama a lot.  But Grumpy did good, I am very thankful to have a man who supports me and my crazy hobbies.  I am running another relay, Hood to Coast, in August!  Can't wait.

 

Ok.  I should go.
