Rennfest!

On Saturday, Josh and I FINALLY went to the Maryland Renaissance Festival.  It is my favorite fall tradition and I was sad when I thought it wasn't going to happen for us this year.  However, we went and had a good time!! We ate lots of yummy food and Josh bought me some new earrings, a hand stitched wine pillow, and my usual shot glass and magnet.  I was very happy we he also bought himself something! A knife and a "case thingy" for it. Overall it was a great day!

 Fight school is my favorite :) These guys are too funny!

He won this game :)

9.11.2001

9.11 is a day I will never forget.  I was in my 7th grade social studies class when people began to be called out to go  home.  I knew at that point that something was wrong, but no one would tell us.  It wasn't until I got home that I really understood what was happening.  When I got into my house, my parents were frantic.  My cousin Cindy worked in the towers and we obviously hadn't been able to reach her. To make make a really long story short between the time I got home and the time we heard that Cindy had made it out of the 2nd tower, we got news that two others that we knew were on the 94th floor of the first tower.  Matthew worked in the towers, Mr. Joe was a neighbor of mine and belonged to the same church, he went to NYC once a month for meetings, which happened to fall on 9.11.

RIP
Matthew D Horning

and Joseph V Maggitti

and all others involved in the terrorist attacks on that day.  You will always be remembered.

The First

Hey Everyone!

Welcome to my new blog!! I was blogging over here, but the blog wasn't going in the direction that I wanted and I decided I want to start fresh with a brand new blog!   On this blog I plan to post a lot more and about a wider variety of subjects.  On my old blog I basically wrote about my accomplishments on my day zero project (see 101 in 1001 tab) but I want to blog about so much more.

So, I have decided that on a weekly basis I will blog on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at least!!!


On Wednesdays I LOVE participating in Jamie's What I Am Loving Wednesday linkup!  It gives me a chance to think about the great things that have happened to me over the last week.

On Thursdays I will either do a Three Things Thursday, inspired by Christy or participate in Jesslyn Amber's linkup: The Simple Things.

On Fridays I will be sharing my love of fitness!  I don't know if anyone else does these post but I want to do a Fitness Friday post.  On this post I will include my weekly workout progress as well as my weekly meal choices and calorie intakes.  I will also include either and exercise of the week or fitness fact of the week.  Doing these post will keep me on top of my workout and encourage me to write everything down in my log book!

As for all of the other days of the week, all bets are off!  I will be posting about random things in my life.  You will also find that I post about books fairly often.  It is on my list to read 75 books by January 1st 2013!

I will leave ya'll with that for now! I hope you enjoy my new blog!
