How is everyone adjusting to the cold weather? If you are reading this blog from a state other than Wisconsin.. what is your weather like? Click "comment" on the bottom of this page! I would love to hear some feedback.

Do you prefer cold weather running or hot???? Personally, I am a fan of hot weather running but yesterday I went for about a 6 mile run and it felt really good. I had "runners high"... which many think is a joke but I promise it is a real thing and it is a great feeling!!!

One downer of my run yesterday was that Rusty, my golden retriever, started limping at about mile 5. So I stopped and checked out his paws and 2 of them were bleeding. I felt so terrible, especially knowing we still had 1 mile to go until we got home. I tried walking with him but he wanted to keep running. When we got home, I cleaned them up and he is walking fine but keeps licking his paws. He loves running so it is hard to see that this happens! I just cannot take him on a run longer than about 3 miles. I bought him dog boots which he didn't like at all! Any other suggestions???

I had a crazy crazy crazy day today. I was up late studying for an exam last night, and woke up around 545am this morning to get some more studying in... So I woke up and did my daily routine which consists of coffee, letting the dogs out, coffee, feeding the animals, coffee, turning on Fox news, coffee, and finally sitting down and catching up on emails, homework, ect... After all of this is complete I get my workout in and head to school... Well today I had 5 classes, 2 quizzes, an exam, a bio lab, and a debate! And this is how I feel right nowwww......

mixed with a little bit of this....

 (This is Bella and she is giving me her little attitude. This is her: do.not.talk.to.me look! haha!)

Needless to say, I am honestly soooo thankful that I have the opportunity to get a college education... But, I will be so ready for the next stage of life, come graduation day.
