This was one of those weekends where everything that needed to get done got done (except laundry).
Grocery store – check
Harrison Rally Day – check
(small town arts festival)
Oak Openings Stampede 5k – check
Baby shower – check
Naps on both Saturday and Sunday – double check
Some great time with Jefferson – check
It was one of those fabulous lazy weekends where I only put on a real bra when I had to and I was satisfied eating out for almost every meal.
My 5k yesterday was supposed to be a 25k…but I had a friends baby shower to attend and I never would have made it if I ran the 25k because I am slow. So I had to suck up my pride and love of running and complete the 5k. Good news though – after taking a lazy 15 days off of running I completed the 5k only 1 minute slower than my new PR! So…that made me feel good. I’ll tell you what didn’t make me feel good though. I totally tripped on a tree root and twisted my ankle…fucker still hurts. But this is race #1 checked off of my list of 30 races.
While I was at the Harrison Rally Day I noticed this booth. Who in their right mind would purchase their head stone at a juried art fair?
And I also wanted to share my picture fail from in the car. For some reason I am an idiot and this happened to be the best picture in the bunch to blog with. Aren’t you lucky!
I seriously look creepy in this picture.
But I’ll leave you with this forehead shot that will never win awards but could win me a free supply of face cream that does away with sun spots caused by the no baby pill!
How is your week shaping up?

Yikes!
When I saw the title I thought you were going to show shoulder spots. ACK. I have some of those. But I still go in the sun. I guess that is bad of me.
Only my face gets the dark sun spots. The best is the one that appears on my upper lip making me look like I have a dark mustache. SEXY.
Haha! Our local funeral home does the same thing at every damn festival we have! Must be free publicity.
But who randomly decides, during a festival, to purchase their headstone? Not this girl….so weird.
My shoulders have nasty sun spots from running in tanks. Hate them! Way to go on the race and getting it all in this weekend!
The sun spots are hideous looking on my forehead…I wish they were easier to get rid of!
Kind of off-the-topic, but here’s the eeriest headstone epitaph I ever read. I saw it at Sidecut Metropark in Maumee, when I was 13, and I still have it memorized:
Remember me as you pass by.
As you are now, so once was I.
As I am now, so you will be.
Prepare for death, and follow me.
I wrote about four chapters of a young adult novel based on this, which I’ve never finished. Maybe someday, when I quit being weirded out by it.
Yes…this is creepy! And oh, so true.
