I now have to definition of the word FUN

This is my goal for 2013 to have FUN  in all that I do.

To have playfulness. 

I want to have FUN  with the activities that I do.

To be whimsical.

I want to have FUN  with the people that I do them with. 

To have enjoyment.

I lost sight of  FUN over the last 2 years. I started an active life style change over 3 years ago.
I did it because........

                1. I was not getting any younger.
                2. I wanted to be healthy going in the "change of life"
                3. I wanted to enjoy life much more.
                4. I love to eat and have great food. (cant to that with out being active...LOL)
                5. I want to lose a few pounds.

I dont see in that list... to be the fastest, to come in first, PR every time, or worry what other people think of me. That is not what it is about for me.

I have done more and experience more since I started out doing a 5K a month back in 2010.
Some where along the line of 2010 and 2013 I lost my fun in my active life style. It was becoming work. I was trying to compete with myself, and not in a good way.
Now don't get me wrong I always want to do my best. But I WILL NOT pout, cry, or have a melt down if I don't get the "best" time.

                                                         I WILL HAVE FUN!!! 
                                               WITH MY PRIMO GIRL  IN 2013 

This year and forever more ..... my motto will be 

   HAVE A FUN 

YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE. 

         MAKE THE MOST OF IT AND KEEP MOVING!    

               

PS: Tonight starts my PRIMO GIRLS IN 2013 FUN  with the 

From April to December

So .. here I sit.... wondering again...WHY ... cant I keep up with this blogging thing... hehehehe.... well let just see what has been happening in the World According to LaBrett.

May.... seem so far away ago..... it was graduation of my oldest nephew Wyatt. Sports banquets. my step daughters bday, and keeping up with my 5K's. The Prmio Girls did the Fireman's 5K. JR/SR Prom for Trinity 

June... Started my training for Hotter n Hell 100. and let me tell you.... I had NOT a clue what I was about to get into when I started THAT training.  Another 5K run, with my best friend. hubby bday, and wedding planning for my oldest son James wedding date is October 20th.  

July... Wedding planning is in full swing now, getting near and far address. Bridal pictures are being done. Oh yes... and the ever HHH 100 training... that I am quickly finding out that is taking up much of any extra time that I really don't have. and ALL of my Saturdays. LOL. Primo Girls did the Summer Sizzler 5K 

August... Wedding planning still going strong. After many set-back in Primos Girls HHH training, we finally did it. On Aug 25th Primo Girls set out on our journey. We started the race at 730am and crossed the finish line together at 430pm. It was the hard thing I have done so far. Sweat, Tears, Rest, Laughter, and "You CAN DO THIS" we cross that finish line. I did 75 miles of the 100 miles, I am very proud of myself that was 25 more mile than I trained for. I know one day I will do ALL 100 miles. :) (side note..... did you know that you will burn though 4,000 plus calories in one day riding that long.) 

September... School is now in full swing for my 2 youngest daughters. One a Senior and one a Junior. The Primo Girls plus one extra ... did the Vineyard Run. Wedding is now only a month away. OH MY we are very busy in our house, and I am only the mother of the groom.

October.... Wedding month is here. WHOOO HOOOO!!! So much to do... so little time. Bridal showers, getting my dress, making sure the rehearsal dinner is all set, decoration for the rehearsal dinner bought and made. OH least not forget... started the Insanity workout... sheesh. Primo Girls did the Double Trouble 5K.
OCTOBER 20 my first born became a husband. Cried alot. They Honeymooned in Florida and took a very short Cruise to the Bahamas during Hurricane Sandy, something that they can tell there kids about some day.  Gene did Bras for a Cause. That was awesome.

November ... Wedding is now passed us. On to Thanksgiving. Continued to do Insanity... I think I am insane for trying this... LOL. see results... cant complain there. Did the Turkey Trot 5K with my daughters, daughter in love, and my daughter boyfriend  so much fun.(side note.... missed my Primo Girl on this run, she was having much need leg surgery) Got very sick this month... had to cut back on workouts. I lost my dog COCO of 12 year this month. Thanksgiving with family and friends.

Decemeber ... Christmas time..... enough said on how busy this time of month is.... I must confess... I really slacked on my workout... and boy can I tell. I did get my last run in for the month. I did the Hero Flightline Run 5K. This I did with my hubby. :) (side note ... my Primo Girl was still out with the leg surgery... it had to be done over a 2 month period... but she will be back in 2013 better that ever... our first run of 2013 Electric Run...WHOOO HOOOOO )Christmas Cookie Party

AND that folks finishes out the year 2012..... Now on to 2013.... cant wait to see what happens. Never a dull moment in the World According to LaBrett .... see ya on the flip side.
