Ultimate Blog Party 2011

This is my first Ultimate Blog Party! It seems super exciting! 5minutesformom.com hosts this party every year-its a chance for bloggers to connect, find new blogs & have fun! For those who don't know me, my real name is Michelle. I also go by "Blondie", "Mommy" & "Hey, you!" I am a mommy of a 4 year old, a 2 & a half year old & a baby that's due any time now... (seriously, he has permission to leave his comfortable cocoon any time....any time...). We live in a small mountain town in CO and enjoy every minute of it. My husband pastors Salida Bible Church (which just celebrated it's 2 year anniversary) and just started working at the new Rent-A-Center in town. When I'm not controlling the chaos at home, I'm helping restrain it at my bff's house. This blog chronicles our daily life concerning all the aforementioned and more. I haven't done any product re...

More Crazy Things I Do While Running

Apparently, after I make a list, more things add...and the more I run, the more crazy things I do....so, here's *More* Crazy Things I Do While Running: 1. Practice my ki (it's a yelling thing you do in the martial art of Kendo) 2. Narrate the "Adventures of BlondieChell" ("there she goes up the hill...running faster.... faster .....") 3. High-five random weeds 4. Learn new things (check out my Things I've Learned While Running tab) 5. Tried to race a bike on a parallel path...apparently they're faster. 6. Scream...and yell things like, "OH MY GOSH" as I jump out of the path of fellow runners, cyclists and hikers... 7. Scramble to keep myself from falling off a mountain (totally jumped to the wrong side of the path. oops). 8. Wear a crocheted beard (attached to a crocheted hat. Works sooooo much better than my baklava) 9. Text. Yes. Dangerous? Yes. Important? Sometimes....I only text while running when neccessary....lik...

Trip? or.... Trip!

There seems to be this strange "family curse" or whatever that affects our family. It's not entirely clear whether it's rooted in the McCarthy or vanVeen side (Dutch + Irish = it's own curse??) but what is clear is that it affects everyone in our family. It seems that the most random things, (or whatever possibility CAN happen *will*) happen to us. Did you read 8 Crazy Hours? Would you believe that when my sister flew back home, one of her bags was rolled over by the "luggage train" on the tarmac and crushed to death? Because of this incident, the bag (and 20% of it's contents) was not returned to her until 24 hours later and then it was in a body bag and in pieces.... The above episode followed a fall my mom took at a hotel we stayed the weekend in. Since she ended up spraining her wrist, I let her borrow my wrist brace that I was wearing because I sprained mine a few days before. (Did I mention w...
