Weigh In and some Monday Lyrics

So...... 6 pounds down this week!  That was expected.  I knew when I started back I would lose a lot of water weight, as normal, right off the bat. 

Let's see what next week brings.

This weekend was super busy.   Friday, I worked from 6am to 11:15pm.  Yeah.  That way, I didn't have to come in this weekend.  Plus, I went and picked up "The Hunger Games".  I've watched it 3 times this weekend.  Yes, I am a dork.

Saturday was a surprise party here at work for a friend.

Sunday, they came and finished installing all our stuff for our new tv.  We went from a 56 inch projection tv, to one you mount on the wall.  I have sssoooooooooooooooooooo much more space in the living room, it's stupid!!  We need new furniture :(.  It doesn't look right anymore.

I am doing this run in October in honor of my dear friend Kevin's oldest son, Cody.

The Triangle Run/Walk for Autism

I have some others that I am doing, but not set in stone yet.  I have to get through a training course for work before I can plan any others.  The only other one I am DEFINITELY doing is the Outer Banks 1/2 Marathon in November.

Zumba tonight!  There is also a new class they started I may try - It's called Rush Active.  It's cardio, balance, core, and strength all in one. 

Lastly....I cannot say how much I LOVE this new Carrie Underwood song. 

I'm from Oklahoma.  My brother knew Carrie in school.  This song in no way applies to me, but I LOVE it.  The score is amazing and the lyrics are heart wrenching, because I do know some people this can apply to.





"Blown Away"
by Carrie Underwood
Dry lightning cracks across the skies
Those storm clouds gather in her eyes
Her daddy was a mean old mister
Mama was an angel in the ground
The weather man called for a twister
She prayed blow it down

There’s not enough rain in Oklahoma
To wash the sins out of that house
There’s not enough wind in Oklahoma
To rip the nails out of the past

[Chorus:]
Shatter every window 'til it’s all blown away,
Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away
'til there’s nothing left standing,
Nothing left of yesterday
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
Blown away

She heard those sirens screaming out
Her daddy laid there passed out on the couch
She locked herself in the cellar
Listened to the screaming of the wind
Some people called it taking shelter
She called it sweet revenge

[Chorus:]
Shatter every window 'til it’s all blown away,
Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away
'til there’s nothing left standing,
Nothing left of yesterday
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
Blown away

There’s not enough rain in Oklahoma
To wash the sins out of that house
There’s not enough wind in Oklahoma
To rip the nails out of the past

Shatter every window 'til it’s all blown away (blown away)
Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away (blown away)
'til there’s nothing left standing,
Nothing left of yesterday (blown away)
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,

Blown away, blown away, blown away, blown away, blown away
