OK. SO I GOT AHEAD OF MYSELF...
I HAD THIS SPUR-OF-THE-MOMENT IDEA THAT I'D DO A CUTE LITTLE DIDDY OF THE 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS, WHILE COUNTING DOWN OUR DAYS LEFT BEFORE THE FARGO MARATHON. I ONLY DID TWO BLOGS, AND THEY WEREN'T CUTE...OR FUNNY. I HAVE NO CREATIVE JUICES LEFT, AND WASN'T BLESSED WITH A HEARTLY LOAD TO BEGIN WITH...
CLEARLY, I'M NO SONG-WRITER. AND, ONCE THE MARATHON'S OVER AND THE BLOGGING STOPS AND ALL THE COMMITMENTS CEASE, I'LL GO BACK TO MY FULL-TIME DAY JOB: MOM AND WRITER FOR MY COLUMN IN "ON THE MINDS OF MOMS!" UH HUH, YOU LIKE HOW I WORK A PLUG IN THERE, SHERI AND DANI?! TO THE THREE PEOPLE WHO READ THIS BLOG, CHECK IT OUT: WWW.ONTHEMINDSOFMOMS.COM!! I'VE GOT YOUR BACK, GIRLFRIENDS.
ANNNYWAY, IN CASE YOU'RE UNAWARE: THERE ARE EIGHT DAYS LEFT...EIGHT DAYS...
BY THIS TIME NEXT WEEK, MY SPEECH WILL BE SAID. TEARS WILL BE SHED. AND, I'LL NEED TO SHAKE OUT SOME SERIOUS LEAD...FOR 26.2 MILES OF SMILES. WHAT? IT'S THE BEST I CAN COME UP WITH.
I ASSURE YOU I WON'T TRY TO RHYME OR SING ON FRIDAY NIGHT, DURING MY SPEECH. I MIGHT HYPERVENTILATE FROM NERVES, BUT YOU HAVE MY WORD...NO POEMS, SONGS OR DIDDYS.
NOW IS THE TIME I GO. DREW'S NEARLY HOME FROM THE AIRPORT, AFTER BEING GONE ALL WEEK. HIP HIP HOORAY! WE'RE SET TO WATCH 20/20, AND READY TO SETTLE INTO A NICE GLASS OF WINE. NO, WE'RE NOT 80. WE JUST FEEL LIKE IT.
ENJOY THE SUN!

Ha ha I guarantee more than three people read this! Don't be discouraged by the lack of comments, it is the midwest afterall. People are reserved. Saw you in the Forum today and am already a OTMOM follower, so looks like I'll still be hearing what you have to say long after you're done blogging about the marathon.
