Zachary and I visited Paws in the Park yesterday where we met a dog named Lola who needs a home...we will be calling the Friendswood Pound first thing tomorrow morning. After Paws in the Park we went on an excursion picking up bandit signs along the way. This weekend we picked up seven signs! Zachary and I made a stop at Rustic Oak to see the Blue Bonnets. Who knew that an act as simple of planting 4 plants in a flower bed 9 years ago could result in this spread... click on the slideshow and you should be taken to the picasa album. Some good photos of the blue bonnets and bees!

So, I am trying not to make any rash decisions. I won't say never again. I will say that it was more grueling than I thought it would be. My right knee is not acutely painful, but it is definitely not right! I probably will find other aches and pains over the next 24 hours if it goes like other competitions. I am certain I prefer Crossfit Competitions! I will spend the next 6 weeks concentrating on getting ready for Crossfit Houston's Women Only Challenge on May 7, 2011. I will admit that after the first 6 mile loop I wanted to quit. I thought seriously about quitting. But I didn't because I have been talking and thinking about doing a half marathon for over a year! Now that it is behind me I can move on. I am a good middle distance runner, I am an okay sprinter. I am not going to be a long distance marathon runner :-) and at my age do I really want to begin trying that? Thanks to my husband and two of our boys, Jon and Zack for making the trek to Seabrook with me! IT was very nice having you there supporting me!

Living Earth Technology donated this bedding mix to the gardens. Volunteers will be moving this pile to beds tomorrow March 5, 2011. Pray for no rain so that they can get it all done!

Usually I post my photos to Picasa and then share the link on Facebook; but then I don't tend to write anything to go along with the photo album. It also doesn't publicize my blog if I do it that way! I want to give a shout out to the young ladies that work out at Pearland Crossfit. You inspire me and push me to increase my intensity level. Working together, being cheerleaders and encouraging everyone when it looks like the end of the WOD is never coming...those are the things that really make Crossfit a community.
