On the brighter side i made a great Asian Noodle soup... and it actually was good LOL............ And its warm today..... and I ordered a new purse ..... LOL..

HAPPY 70th DAD!

A BIG HAPPY BITHDAY TO MY DAD! HE IS 70 TODAY AND HAS MORE ENERGY THAN MOST 40 YEAR OLDS! THANKS FOR BEING A GREAT DAD.... WE LOVE YOU........

Whew where did that week go?

Its been a long week so much has happened. Funny how some weeks go so slow and others fly by. We had a family scare, with one of my sisters, but she is recoverying at home. My mom had a small surgery and my son moved out of his place he shared with his girlfriend, so the week was busy. This past week has just made it clearer than it already was, that I have an awesome family! We come together when needed and our love for eachother is true and real. I am blessed to ba a part of this family. The family is the way it is because of my parents, they have been married nearly 49 years and are supportive and strong. They never turn their backs on us and help and love us always.

Thank you Mom and Dad!!

Today is so sunny and beautiful it can only make me feel that spring is on the way and with spring brings new life!!! This picture is from the fair in the summer, and with this warm day made me think of this hot fun day my boys and I had!

Happy Valentines day!

1

Another Valentines day is upon us. Its #18 for Mike and I.. And well to us its just doesnt have the same meaning. Too bad in some ways, but truthfully I would rather Mike surprise me on a day that is just any ordinary day. It means more to me that way. I did buy the kids all something though. Since they are all boys I have to try to some how keep their hearts tender, so when they do meet a girl they have some romance to them... and if you know my twins they will need all the help they can get!!! Not Evan though, he is a loving soul. He had to make sure his Nana ( my mom) already got her valentines... and some special kids in the neighborhood too.... I guess what valentines day does for me is just makes me think about my life with Mike, and how lucky I am.. wonder if he is thinking the same LOL.......... Happy Valentines to you All!!!!

Phat Camp

Here we are Carrie (my very best friend for over 20 years) me,. Jen Hendershot, and Tracy one of my best friends, and a fitness instructor at my gym,, she is amazing!!!!!!

Had to post about exercising

Fitness has been a great part of my life..from childhood until now. I have always ran, or been at gym. Its just something I need to do. Partly because I need to relieve stress , and because I do like food. Not always good food so I need a balance. One would not call me tiny, but at my age I am just glad thatI still can fit into the same size for the last 15 years. I finally have realized that I am happy where I am at... but that is not to say I dont like a challenge. I try to set a goal every year. This year I will do another Triathalon, with my twin sister Dar.. I also have ran many half marathons , and one full.. Last year my hips just couldnt take the distances any more, so I have given up the long road races and run shorter distances now. Mike, was getting sick of me always in pain, and I dont want to be 50 and lame. So now its 10 K and sprint triathalons... A few weeks ago i went toa Phat camp, run by Jen Hendershot, a fitness competitor for 10 years. It was great to work out all weekend and challenge myself some more.. but the best thing was realizing that I actually an in good shape!! LOL... well for almost 39!! I hope I alway exercise ..like my dad who is 70, and has the body of a 40 year old.. he is amazing!!! Thanks Dad for being a good inspiration to me!!!!!

What a day

My feet ouch.... sad to say 2 warts were removed yesterday , from my feet.. I know gross.. I cant walk very well now, maybe I shouldn't have went to the gym today.... Well at least I got to have coffee with one of my best friends, Tracy... Such a simple thing like coffee with a friend and your day just gets better. Oh and today the twins played basketball, they won. They are so cute out there , since they are pretty short. But boy can they move! We have some snow finally, and Evan has been outside all day playing. You would think he would be tired out but not Evan, he can go all day and night..... wish i was like that at times......

Chocolate and wine!

Its such a sin! But its the best sin out there. I wish I could go a few days without but it seems impossible.. I just had those Bernard Calebault (I know I spelled this wrong) milk chocolate duds.... Yummy its heaven here on earth! That and some good wine. Which brings me to the next point exercise.... I guess if I am going to eat chocolate and drink wine then exercise is a must. Which is not problem since I do it a lot. Writing about it could be a very long post!

The one

And here he is the man who completes me.. without him there would be nothing ...... He keeps me grounded and is a great Dad...a real dad one who is there........

Just a note my Business is Called Latasia.. And I sell unique and fun jewelry. I didnt want to teach anymore so here I am running a homebased business.. Its fun and easy and I get to stay home!

The first year in many many, that all the kids are not home during the day so this year is about me!!! LOL..

Sharing with you....

The Blog..... The first entry for me. Not something new though as I have always had a journal. This is a way to share for me, thoughts, family, relieve stress, brag, and admit defeat. The family in the Pruss household are demanding of my time but I hope to write in here regularily.... I will start there and get this Blog thing figured out..................... as i write this the boys once again are being boys.. Loud and crazy.. Maybe this is going to be harder than I thought.......
