Anto's Runners

Now calling all runners to join Anto's Runners to train for the Portland Marathon 2011. Together we can run, be encouraging and fundraise for the American Cancer Society in memory of our beloved brother Anto. We have 7 people now, 10 would be solid! Training starts in November.


We [are] fighting the good fight, we [are] finishing the race, we [are] keeping our faith - 2 Tim 4:7


Adventures

Flying into Barcelona and spending 5-6 days in Spain, 2-3 days in Portugal, 7-9 days in Greece and 6-8 days in France. Dates still tentative, but all very exciting.


Works

New job will be sending me to San Diego for a conference. The hotel is jaw dropping. Can't wait to tan poolside. And learn about the regional health corps too of course.


Kids

The ever-growing Kids Summer Festival is coming to Montavilla Park on August 28th from 5-8 pm. Be there to enjoy community fun, get free school supplies, get free burgers and sno cones, and to have fun! See you there.

Perfect Weather Day

Runs
Neighborhood classics: Glendover, Rocky Butte, Mt. Tabor, Rocky Butte, Waterfront. Lucky I live close to run these great trails. My new shoes arrived - lunarglide+ [thank you NikeCouple]. Took them out tonight and I loved them! My feet feel like I haven't even ran anything. K told me about her new running shoes and I'll have to check 'em out too - first I'll have to ask what they're called. Wine Country Half in 4 weeks, Portland Marathon in 10 weeks - ahh!!!

Yucks
Pimples. I feel like mine are overtaking me. Everytime I treat it, its as if I'm feeding it a buffet. Any treatment recommendations?

Deals and Steals
Scored Sam Edelman sandals for $20, gorgeous Colin Stuart teal heels for $17, and a Nau shirt for $7. Sold at Crossroads today and made $81.50!!!

Artists
Tenth Avenue North - They'll be at Rolling Hills Church on October 23rd. Any takers?
Drake and Mary J. Blige - They'll be at Bumbershoot on September 5th of Labor Day Weekend.

Adventures
Every birthday is an adventure and mine is coming up! There are so many things I want to do, but I will have to narrow it down and save the rest - thank God we have birthday adventures once a year! Choices are: Tazo Tea factory tour, Seaside day trip, Spa day, Astoria day trip, Go-cart racing, Shooting range, Skydiving, Rafting trip, or Cooking lessons. I just don't know and birthday's on a Tuesday.

Shows
Have not had time to sit down and watch anything. Project Runway's new season started - time to make room for tv.

Works
Love what I'm doing. Just so much work all the time. Lord please help me get through this week!

Current Obsessions
Color - getting my closet out of the blacks/greys and into color! I think I'm doing pretty good. Bubble tea - darn you tBuzz. I'm feelin' bubble tea all day everyday now. At least you'll indulge in this obsession with me.

Sayings
"You say that I'm a dreamer and I'm not" -Dinner for Schmucks

Movies
Dinner for Schmucks was hilarious. I recommend it for anyone wanting to laugh. There are so many memorable quotes and actions. Loved it! Getting my girlfriends together to watch Eat, Love, Pray - August 15th - Ladies let me know
