busy, busy, busy!

I was on the run all weekend!

On Saturday I took my dog to an Earth Dog Trial, she passed her final leg of her Master Earth Dog test to earn a title this weekend, so now she can be known as:
Broken Ridge Madison, CGC, JE, SE, ME
so for all of you non-dog people the letters all stand for things she has accomplished. First- canine good citizen, not really a title but still an accomplishment, the next three are earthdog titles, junior, senior and master earthdog. I love my little pumpkin she is the best dog ever. Ican't believe she is going to be 10 years old in October!

I heart my punkin Madison!

The earthdog trial took pretty much all day on Saturday- when I got home Dave and I cruised over to the local burger joint where all the car guys get together on Saturday nights, we looked a a few cars before we headed over to the movie store to get a rental so we could just go home and veg.

Got up early this morning to do the Top Pot Doughnut 5k at Greenlake in Seattle. I have only run about 3 times this month- but my friend peer pressured me into joining her. I'm glad I did because I havd such a good time and the weather was perfect. After the 5k we did a couple of errands, had lunch and then I went into work for a couple of hours to get a few things done.

Here we are at the end! Of course at the end of the 5k they gave away free doughnuts- but the victory is that neither one of us ate it! Oh, yeah- my time was 38 minutes. not to shabby! My friend was done in 33- but look how much taller she is! ha, ha, just kidding, she has been running  a lot and is in better shape than me.

This evening I attended a fundraiser dinner that was hosted by our PTA. A bunch of the teachers that I work with attended as well and it was really fun. Our PTA is fabulous and this fun dinner raised around $4,000 for our school!

I need to blog more, but it is getting late and I am super tired.

I have a fill tomorrow so I will definitely post more very soon!

Jen loves ya! :)

  2. Glad you were pressured into the 5K. It was definitely perfect weather for it. I will let you know how the ankle is doing; I'm trying my best to stay off of it as much as possible today & we'll go from there. I did chat with our new "helper" and will be doing that post a little later today. :)

  3. Fancy Dog... all Esquired up, mine doesn't have any fancy letters but he's got our hearts... and he's spoiled rotten. I am so happy for you and Madison, but I would have ate that doughnut...LOL.
