I know, I know... I am HORRIBLE at keeping this thing up to date.  Maybe I shouldn't have started a blog.  Oh well, too late now, it's already been done.  Things have kind of slowed down a little over the past couple of months and I'm starting to feel a little lazy!  I went from having to schedule out shopping with friends to having way too much time on my hands.  
This was a busy year.  I started things off volunteering to help out in my running group in any way I could, to somehow becoming a coach in the same group!  I honeslty felt like I did not have much to contribute.  After all, I have only been running for a couple of years, have only completed 3 marathons.  I'm not exactly what I would call a "seasoned" runner.  However, I feel like I worked hard and gave it my best.  Now the season is over and I am no longer planning weekly long runs... instead I have been moved to the Director's position and am responsible for about 200 runners!  How did this happen!?  Admittedly, I am very nervous and hope that I will be able to successfully run a productive program.  I guess we'll see as time goes on... 
I'm still at the sorority house.  You know, when I first moved in last year I was so afraid that the girls wouldn't like me... I just did not want to be some tyrant that they hated.  I guess things have changed a little, because I no longer have any qualms about whether or not they think I'm mean.  Somebody has to tell people to do the dishes!  I still can't believe someone would peel an orange and then leave the peel sitting on the arm of the coach as they walked away.  I'm starting to feel a little mean because I'm tired of washing pans that I didn't use.   
I shouldn't complain.  In reality, I really to appreciate my current living situation.  I mean, how many people get free room and board as well as a pay check to live where they live?  I'm guessing not many... I am lucky.  
Christmas is in three days and I am so behind on my shopping it is incredible.  How did that happen?  Did I not just get through saying that things had slowed down?   I swear I get more done in less time when I am busy!
