Now That's Better

I can't say this was a GREAT run, but it left me with a feeling of accomplishment that I finished it. I did 5 hilly miles this morning. Glad I tested out the Ipod that went through the washer. After 2 weeks in rice, it was working again. It took a charge. It played music. However, the volume doesn't work. It's 'stuck', and it's stuck on a very loud volume. So it was a good thing that I tested it before race day.

One more LR (8 miles) then a couple of short runs... then 26.2.

We are having scheduling conflicts with my last LR. So I'm considering a late afternoon run tomorrow. I don't usually like running in the afternoon/evenings. But if I can get my LR in tomorrow, that will free up Saturday morning. So for now, that's the plan. I'll drop Lil Man off with Hubby, and I'll get in my last LR.

The time is counting down...

    That is wonderful, Amy! You are doing what I would love to do but delayed too long. You are inspiring me to get up off my butt and do something. Thanks for the inspiration.

Self Care Is Not Selfish It's Necessary

It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. And I'll say it just one more time in case you didn't hear me. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. I have found through experience that when I'm not taking care of myself, not only do I suffer but my family suffers. So ditch the mom guilt and take the time that you need! I have a tendency to keep pushing my needs aside until I reach a breaking point. We've had a very busy fun summer so far. However, I've struggled to get some quality ' me ' time to decompress. I'll spare you the meltdown that ensued. But the reality check that followed prompted me to take action.

Running My Life

Wow, has it really been 2 years since my last post? I suppose that I allowed life to get in the way. For any faithful blog readers, I apologize. Although, I'm not sure how many people actually read blogs anymore. I think most people use other social media platforms.  (By the way, drop by and say hi on Insta. )  But for some reason, each year when I pay for my google domain, I can't seem to let it go. As silly as it sounds, this little space is mine. And lately I've been struggling with ownership and acceptance. And my domain renewal was a not so gentle reminder that I have a voice .  Seriously, you'd think by 48 that I'd have this figured out - nope - apparently not. However, I am wise enough to know that we have a choice to allow situations to harms us or make us stronger. I'm choosing to let this mid-life quandary make me stronger. And because of this, I'm setting goals, taking charge, and reexamining priorities.  Movin' on...

When The Planner In You Must Be Flexible

In case you haven’t figured this out by now, I’m a planner. I know - shocker right?!? :) So although I love substitute teaching, it’s making the planner in me anxious. And it’s been reeking havoc on my workouts. Basically the morning of or maybe the night before, I find out if I’m working. So my day ( that I thought I had planned ) can be turned upside down in an instant. But, truthfully, isn’t that really the same with everyone?
