New Furniture

Kev had this amour in his trailer when I met him. It's like 100 plus years old. It needed some work, so his dad refinished it for us! I love it! It's our first antique. He also gave us an old time wash station. We put it in the attic for now since we really don't have the space for it. 
Perla's scratching post was wearing out and she was starting to scratch on the couch. I was not having it, so I looked online and a new post was around $30 and I found this condo for $70. Score! She is starting to play on it some and has stopped scratching the couch.  

I took the dog kennel out of the shower and just piled pillows and blankets in it for Lilly's bed. She loves it and I just crack the laundry room door. This way Perla can still use her little box and Lilly can't get out. I really want a at door for the laundry room door.
my aunt gave me this huge mirror. It's too big for one bathroom and not big enough for the master bathroom, so it will probably end up in the workout room. We need a large mirror in there.
The cabinet man  installed the cabinet handles last week. It make everything look so different.

The Crud

I feel like crud! I've blown my nose so much this weekend that my face is raw and red. I can't imagine how I have this much snot in me. Anyways. I didn't get my Thursday 3 miler in or my 9 mile long run this weekend. How can I run when I can't freaking breathe?!? I've been taking medicine and using my Nettie Pot, so here's hoping I feel like running towards the end of this week. So glad this is a short work week and a field trip on Wednesday. I NEED a break!!

Ballyseede Castle

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...

Winter Weather Cancels Marathon

This weekend was supposed to be the St. Jude Marathon in Memphis. I signed up back in June and reserved my hotel. However, mother nature had other plans. We had a round of bad winter weather that left roads iced over for several days, so they ended up canceling the race. I checked and luckily my hotel will refund me my money, while others are not. Now, I was going to complete this race, but had I trained for it? No. I've been way too busy the past few months to take hours out of my dad and weekend to run. I had a house to finish and move into and a wedding to plan and attend. Anyways. I'm thinking about running the Nashville one in April. We will see. On another note the winter weather had us trapped on our hill for four days, before the temperatures reached 32 and the ice could melt some. Kev and I definitely enjoyed spending some quality time together and had a blast sledding.
