Random Thoughts:
Recently had the opportunity to speak with a couple ladies:
One is new math teacher at our school. She is very soft spoken and shared with me what she does when not at HHS. She was married for 18 years and has 1 daughter. She was busy raising her daughter and living life. It turned out that her husband had been having an affair with a bridesmaid at their wedding. She said she held her hand and had her over countless times, asked her husband to help her with every day issues she would have at her house since she had gotten a divorce 7 years prior. She said she should of known and should not have been surprised but she was. So now she is picking up the pieces and moving on. I like her!
The other lady is kind of a hot mess. I have encouraged her many times, encouraged her to be a wife as well as a mom. I have supported her. She had never shared the details of their dysfunctional family. This time i had to ask "What part of being a mom is allowing you to let this reality be ok for your daughters?"
I pray for them both.
That brings me to this moment to share how thankful i am for my life. How wonderful that on Thursday i will celebrate 32 years with this man. Who told me the first time we met "I have been looking for you" Cheesy yes but i think now we had been looking for each other.
He is snoring beside me, it is 4am and it is raining outside. Yes i should be sleeping but sometimes it feels ok to be here now. Being quiet and being thankful!!
WE are going to have a baby girl soon and i know my Ra is so tired of being pregnant. She has been a real trooper but i do remember you are weary. i am praying for this perfect girl to make her appearance with no C section.
I have 3 of the most beautiful and loving grandchildren in the whole entire universe. They make me so happy and I love them so very much. I cherish my moments with them!
Happy Anniversary Bobby you are the Best and I love you so vey much!

2012-2013 New Year
Tomorrow we will welcome 1300 + students to HHS.
Lots of freshman who will be smaller than the rest of the kids
Commons area will be LOUD and they all get re acquainted and decide which group they will be apart of. I am staring the year refreshed and ready to take care of attendance.
Lots of changes this year and for me personally I love change and challenge.
I am feeling very good about my home space as I did lots of cleaning up and reorganizing. Thus my mental attitude is a 10!
We had a great week at the beach and hopefully we will make this a yearly adventure. At some beach somewhere. I love the ocean and realized how much i need to feel the waves and listen to the sound of the waves. Watch the sunsets and sunrise and just be quiet and get filled up.
Jackson turned 4 this summer. He had a baseball birthday party complete with piñata.
Marah is 8 and will be going to 3rd grade! She is so precious and sweet. Marah still loves to cheer and is on the force competition dance team.
Wyatt is now 8 months old and is on his way to crawling.

End of April 2012
What a lovely time of year. The flowers are all blooming and my plants are now officially outside. They love being out there and I enjoy taking care of them. I have an awesome back porch area that Bobby helped me reclaim by doing some painting and repairing of the screen.
The festivals have arrived and every weekend there are many options This weekend Ra and I went to the Inman Park Festival.
There are also lots of road races and I love to go to them also. This year has been especially fun because Brian and Ra are enjoying the road races with me. It is so fun to see them also enjoy this favorite past time.
Wyatt is now 4 months old. He will be staying with us this week along with Tori. Justin will return to Vidalia to work but he will return next weekend.
Jackson is close to being a 4 year old. He is so much fun and I love being with him every chance I get.
His favorite color is Yellow and i love finding things to make him happy.
Marah our little ball player and cheerleader gets to hang out with us a couple times a month. She is a precious little lady who loves the color blue.
Looking forward to hanging out at the lake with Bobby and a book. Such a great place to regroup and relax.
First ASR Run
Ya know. running has been a part of my life since i was in High School. I loved long distance running, with so many things in my life i couldn't control this was the one thing that allowed my mind to be quiet so i could relax. To this day i love the feeling i get the endorphins that quiet my brain. I love encouraging others to run and for the longest time ran alone. Now Brian has joined the fun, i know he loves it as much as i do. For Mothers Day he got me a Road ID, very thoughtful gift. I wear it proudly. I also run with Kimberley Miller, we both love to run together.
Today was the first time i ran with Atlanta Southside Runners. We met to run at 6:00 am and i had some anxiety about this new adventure. I had nightmares i would get lost, be the last one and never find the finish line. It was a group of mostly men and some gals. The guys took off and i could tell they were faster than i will ever get. It is still fun to be with a group of people who share this passion. Keep Moving!

December 26
Holiday time can be so stressful and hectic. We managed to have a little stress but for the most part enjoy the time together. Bobby as usual made the best dinner for us all. Stephanie and Helen came over to share the holiday love at the Lenz home. Our baby Wyatt was here as well also.

November 2011
So much has happened.
I am going to have a new baby Lenz in the family Baby Wyatt
We are all very excited about his arrival on December 14th
Justin and Tori Hamm went to prom together 11 years ago they are making lots of adjustments getting ready for their baby
Sasha will be the godmother and Tori's brother Andrew the godfather
I have met Rita Wigington and really like her. I wish she lived closer we would be fast friends
Another baby will be here soon Pam and Chris will be new parents with the arrival of their baby boy Durham. Sweet baby kisses everywhere.
I went to see Marlene for fall break. It was a much needed regroup time for me. I went alone and we truly had a wonderful time. We rode bikes and relaxed. She made me healthy oatmeal every am. I love my dear friend. We dream of one day living together again. We would have so much fun doing crafts and hanging out. We baked a pie together and she gave me a pampered chef apple slicer. I am kind of loving baking apple pies.
Bobby is having surgery on Monday. He is pretty quiet about the procedure so Ra will take him there in the am and get the scoop from the doctor. She is my girl who gets it done for me. Such a help to us both.
I am the proud owner of a MAC. I am currently driving to Perimeter to learn how to use it. I feel kind of dumb cause i wanted to add some photos earlier to the blog but still don't know how. Patience grasshopper
Sasha recently got a job closer to her home. i am so glad to not have her on the highway driving an hour each way. She is such a great girl. i miss spending time with her but she is so busy with work and school when i do see her it is always a joy.
i am currently on day 3 of not eating candy. i love sweets and went overboard at Halloween. Such a happy holiday for me first of all there is a lot of orange decorating and well i love the color. It is a fun holiday also. We went Trick or Treating with Jackson. He is just so much fun and makes every moment a celebration.
So i have been getting back to my routine of working out. I rode my bike tonight and went 13 miles. It was cool outside and kind of windy at times. But i did it and the leaves were spectacular. i am going to commit to going to the gym more and eating less. I currently want to loose 10 pounds. Not a lot and am sure that i can do it.
Well Random thoughts for now......
