-"I would love a book of scripture from Peter-I am very much like him, or, he makes me feel like Christ knows me and still loves me- loved Elder Hollands talk from oct '12"
I know there is writings of Peter, but not like Mathew, Luke and John. He was with the Savior. I would love to know his thoughts.
-"There are homes along my way that appear to not be inhabited- I love the homes that are oozing with family life, love and laughter."
-"My headband protected me from 'hearing the wind' and so I didn't know about the tempest brewing- same as the helmet portrayed in the scriptures. Except we have to protect our ears."
-"Also, It was crazy windy and I just kept praying for Heavenly Father to ease the wind- letting Him know that the run was all I could bare. I then started noticing that there were small breaks and I would be able to catch my breath and I was thankful for them0 then pretty soon I realized that they were because of the houses and that the blessing was because of someone else- how often do we not recognize the blessings in our life and think of them as a coincidence instead of a blessing from someone else.:)"
-"What's in your ear?' How can anything be better than General Conference or the words of the Prophet?"
-"We need a reliable gauge (Person? Religion?) of where we are at, and so I guessing where I was and in the end I was disappointed because I was off!"
-"I have total faith in my training schedule- or I have to- because I have to trust that it will get me to the point of being able to achieve my goal. Just like the plan of Salvation."
-" Everydays workout is overwhelming when I look at the whole picture- but when I just take it day by day it's not so bad. Just one principle at a time is not so bad."
-"The only constant in running- time. There is 60 seconds in a min, and 60 minutes in an hour. Doesn't vary."
-"The Savior is my best running companion."

And here comes spring!
April-
-"Totally authentic =Driving big truck, dog in back, rockin to Brad Paisley, Yup, that's me!:)"
I was taking Carli to be bred, I can't say I ever drive Cody's truck, it is seriously too big, but I will admit, it is fun when I do!;)
-"Amazing how dirty your house gets when you don't sweep a day."
So many ways this can be interpreted.
-"Tell me why do grown men wear baseball pants to their 7 year old's baseball game?"
This is a soap box you don't want to get me on. All I can say is get over the glory years and let the kids play ball!
-"Yep, I saw a moose on my way to town. Yep, I live in Idaho."
This is why I put up with the winter.
-"And, yes I did, packed my own cup of ice cream to town."
I'm not sure why this made me giggle, but giggle I did.
-"Love 'dejunking'"
-"It doesn't make sense that bedtime is at the end of the day- When my patience has already worn thin."
I think this on at least a weekly basis.

With the thawing of snow, also a thawing of brain, maybe...
March-
"My rubber galoshes are on my feet about as much as anything else."
And they sure are cute! Red and Black plaid. Love galoshes!
-"One draw back to working out inside is no where to spit."
If I thought this once, I thought it a million times.
-"One reason so many family pics are in the snow- Because we live in a place where it is WINTER 6 MONTHS OF THE YEAR!"
-"Jelly Beans = Teaspoons of sugar, each and every one."
-" I would like some feed back please- is running a marathon worth it? Can someone tell me it gets easier? this is when I actually have to commit- wk 7-ugh- not to sure."
I had been playing around with the idea of running a marathon. I really wanted someone to give me some good cheering on, but in the end, it had to be for me anyway!
On the back of this card I started writing my running program, Good reference for future craziness.

Things I Love
I have added on this card occasionally throughout the year, but I started it at the end of February....
- "The show 'Friends' and 'Big Bang Theory'"
-"Ice cream in bed"
-"Getting a text from anyone outside of clients! :)"
-"Writing"
-"Trips"
-"Reading"
-"Baking"
-"Fountain diet drinks- I know, I know"
-"Sunflowers"
-"Ice cream on the couch"
-"Ice cream in the car"

And the Cold is setting in!
February-
-"I hate dreaming."
It's true. I dream in huge abundance and remember them all. And it is exhausting. And I don't particularly like it.
-"But, I do love cinnamon toast bread with butter!"
mmmm :)
-"And, opening the blinds at 8:00 and turning off the lights. (=enough sunshine to light my house:))
Living in the north and have such short days in the winter makes one appreciate natural light!
-"My sweatshirt is 11 yrs old, and I love it still! :)"
pathetic, I know
-"I love kissing my kids necks-very unlikely there are boogers there."
hee hee
-"When I eat something that's burned, just out of the goodness of my heart, it should not include calories."
yes, I feel very strongly about this.
-"I'm a country girl- chore boots and all- even check on my animals in the middle of the night when it's stinking freezing!"
Those animals bring me a lot of money, so I guess it comes with the territory.
-"In my 38th year I've already learned something new, A diesel engine requires 2 batteries.Yay, Good Job me!"
How did I not know this? I grew up on a farm! I guess better late than never.
-"And, mini cupcakes? Yep, mini puffs of heaven!:)"

Maybe Winter effects my Brain
January 2013-
-"Bummer when you get the mail and there is 6 envelopes- All medical bills."
Between Cody trying to cut off his finger and Creeden's frequent hospitalizations, my gall bladder wanting to come out (which I decided to leave in), our medical providers use a lot of stamps directed to our house.
-"There is nothing sweeter than a 5-year olds hug, except maybe a 2 year olds, Or, maybe an 8 year old who still hugs his mom. Ok, hugs are just awesome all around."
- "We were $4.70 from meeting our OUT OF POCKET MAXIMUM for Creeden in 2012!"
Wow, this kid is expensive! But worth every penny. ;)
-"16th of January. 2nd Ammendment, 2013, Is it gone?"
Laws were trying to be passed that were jepordizing this right....
-"Thoreau? Are we going to be Friends?"
My boss lent me the book, Walden. He said it would heal a lonely soul. When I read I tend to immerse myself. I started really questioning. It led me down some roads of self reflection and possibly a lent a little direction.
-"A fireplace is so addictive!"
A truer statement has never been uttered. Or at least on that day. :)
-"We embrace mismatched socks at my house."
I am pretty sure Skyelar started this new fad of mismatching socks in America, and we all love it!
-"Hibbard roads are like driving on Tundra. I hate driving on Tundra."
-"Sunshine is so good for my soul."
Living in cold and snow for 3/4 of the year makes any morsel of sun deeply appreciated.
-"Diet drinks while I can."
Goals approaching that would not allow for this luxury.
-"Emily Jane? Emma Rain?"
-"Some artists are classics and their music is timeless. Ace of Base doesn't fit in this catergory and discredits any stations claim of 'current favorites.'
I love to have music on in my house all of the time, radio stations drive me a little crazy.
-"8 stitches, or is it 9? Holy Ouch!- And I I did this on my own free will and choice.?"
I had 2 moles removed due to them looking suspicious, which, I later learned that for good reason and had to have one re-cut, due to bad cells - say hello to the 4 in scar on my back!
-"Ya know when you have an ugly day? Today is mine."
-"Bummer when you get the mail and there is 6 envelopes- All medical bills."

Upon Review
In my little red tin I have dozens of thoughts that have captured my year. I was browsing through them and thought it would be fun to expound on a few, or at least share them and the randomness of my brain.
So, here we go 2013 in review....
