Ramble-riffic!

August 6, 2009 by Elaine

Today my feet are not swollen but every other day in the last week, they have been. So, I’m counting my lucky stars right now. What makes this happen? How can I prevent it? Doesn’t someone know? Ugh. Oh and I’m T.I.R.E.D. Like exhausted. Is this partly my fault for staying up too late every…

Just Some Stuff

March 30, 2009 by Elaine

I haven’t done a random post in a while so it must be high time, right? Sure, why not? * It took my doctor quite a while to find the baby’s heartbeat on Thursday. And by “quite a while” I mean it was probably a minute to minute and half but it felt like ten….

November 10, 2008 by Elaine

So, I thought I would post a little list of what I have learned from my running so far. (P.S. I stole the title of this post from this chick from a comment she left me last week. I like to give credit where credit is due… and well, I just couldn’t resist using it!)…
