Friday Five 8.25.17

Happy Friday! I'm joining the Friday 5 Link up with  Running on Happy & Fairytales and Fitness 


 
 
I have lots to celebrate this morning, so I'm going to share with you highlights of my week and random stuff.

1. I passed the Citizenship test! Yesterday afternoon, I had my appointment for my citizenship test, and I passed! The process has been long and there is one more step to complete yet, which will be my swearing in Ceremony; which is when I fully become a Citizen of the United States.



2. I am jumping age groups! Today I am turning the big 35, for some races that means I will now be in a new age group... a very competitive age group! And I'm not ready to their level of awesomeness!

3. My son is off to a great start for school! Yesterday I attended my son's Back To School night, and showed with my boxes of tissues and gift card, and My son's teacher told me that he was grateful I remember to bring tissues, because he forgot to ask for some! It's going to be a good year!

4. My Co-workers are fantastic! We have a lot of new people at my job, and man! I really like all of them! They are so caring, compassionate and dedicated to helping people. And to add to their awesomeness they are very supportive of each other. While I was out for my test yesterday, they were texting and asking how it was and congratulating me.

This was from a meeting where our boss couldn't' find us
 
5. This song is our current favorite ! I still love Despacito, but this J. Balvin song is our current favorite for my son and Me. I danced this last night, alone in my kitchen before a run.




How is your Friday?

How is the school year treating you so far?

  7. Congrats on your citizenship!! The "older" age groups perplex me...I would think the "old" gals would be slower, but since there's (usually) fewer, it becomes more competitive because the remaining gals are usually the badazz runners LOL
