fun – Page 9 – Sweat & Sparkle

It was so hard coming back to work this week! My husband and I skipped town and went camping, which I love. I know a lot of people dream of vacations with fancy hotels, expensive restaurants, spas, resorts…not me! Give me a crackling fire, dinner cooked over a flame, and snuggling up in a tent, listening to the breeze in the trees and watching the stars in the night sky.

I was picking on my husband and asked him if he and Psycho had ever gone camping together. He looked at me like I was insane and said no, she didn’t like to do things like that. He said she mostly liked to complain a lot and ruin vacations and trips. I like that this is something special that we do together, have fun together, and enjoy so much. We have already reserved our next camp site.

The kids are with us this week for Thanksgiving, which makes being at work very difficult! Hopefully we will close early today so I can head home.

I’ve been slacking off with my workouts this week and was brainstorming how to get back into a groove. I found myself looking over a race schedule for next year. It sounds crazy, but I might sign up for a half marathon. A few years ago, when I was really into running, I ran the half marathon distance on my own, but I have never completed an official race and gotten the t-shirt to prove it! So today I subscribed to a running magazine as a Christmas present to myself and will print out a half marathon training schedule. I’d love to accomplish a half marathon in the new year.

Today I just want to do something fun. Since I have to watch out for my #1 fan, oh-so-lovingly and quite aptly nicknamed Psycho, I track IP addresses to this blog. It’s interesting to see different cities and even different countries show up.

So today, I just want to ask: where are you from? I like to label my blog visitors so I know which ones I know already and which ones are new.

In particular, I’d really like to hear from the people who read regularly but have never commented, so don’t be shy! If you have a blog too, drop the link in the comments if I don’t already link to you.

Here’s an example: I have a frequent visitor from Xenia, Ohio, with a Time Warner Cable Internet provider, but I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a comment from this person. I love that people come back to read my blog, so please don’t take this as a bad thing or calling someone out for reading my blog, when that’s exactly why my blog exists! I am just curious who my readers are, and if you also have a blog, I’d like to read yours as well so we can support each other.

If you don’t want to leave a comment here telling me where you are from, since this is a public blog, then drop me a message at mystalkerisfat2015@gmail.com. Again, don’t be shy! I just want to get to know my readers. Thanks!
