13 miles worth of ruffles

well here it be. it's here & coming to fruition. the BIG 1/2 marathon "race" this sunday, 5/2.

i thought this day would never come -- or i should say i hoped i was only dreaming when i signed up for this almost four months ago. during that time it sounded like a good idea; however, as the "race" nears & i see the trail map...i begin to re-think my decision-making skills. am i really a good decision-maker? was this a good strategy to keep me in shape? i just don't know, but i will say that i think this will all turn out a.okay. it's great to set goals & accomplish them...well assuming i will accomplish this goal as sunday isn't quit here yet, but i am optimistic.

at any rate, i am proud that i can look back [n the near future of course] & say that i "ran" a 1/2 marathon when i was 30-years old. not too many peeps can say that. now, "run" might be an understatement, but i'll report back & let you know how it all turns out. until sunday, the ruffles & lace will be M.I.A.

i am looking really forward to crossing the finish line @ the 50-yard line of good 'ole Tom Osborne field. i'll feel like a real athlete.

until sunday,

a tab-bit ruffly

eccentric headboard

Just thought I would share my homemade headboard (all from scraps in the garage at our home) that my extremely talented father completed for me. It turned out amazing!

I do have to give my mother mama Donna props for brainstorming the length idea ...as it is wider than my bed; which I like. Makes it very fun & eccentric.

I wanted to paint it white, but yet again...parents know best & suggested the dark stain & varnish. I will have to agree with them on this one as painting it white would have ruined the vibe.

Thanks so much rents for all your great work & talents. I am very blessed & lucky to have parents like you!

xoxoxo,
your ruffly

Curvaceous

No need to worry about shedding those curves away. They're in and it's
time to [continue] to embrace them. Beautiful, sexy, healthy curves;
where ruffles & lace is always welcomed.

About time...

...to get back into this blogging. And now I can do it from the good
'ole mobile cellular device. So mobile!
