I haven’t posted in a couple of days. Things have been kind of busy around here. Couple of things:

The running shoe store was having a Black Friday sale and I found a pair of shoes that fit me for 55 bucks! They were half off. I ran in them Sunday and did (are you ready for this?) FOUR MILES!! It took me an hour,  but the baby was asleep most of the time, so it went well. I would love to see what my time would be like without the stroller.

My job is going fine, though I think they would like me to work a little more than I am. I am thinking about putting the baby in daycare 2 days a week and working then. I think he needs the socialization, it’s just hard for me to trust anyone with him, but I will have to eventually.

I went yesterday to get fitted for a sports bra. I’d already measured myself at home and decided that I need a size 2 enell. I called on the phone to see if they carried that brand and she said they did in addition to another brand (Lunaire) that she said was priced well. When I looked it up online, I could see why. Those bras are not good for high impact. When I got there, I told her that I would probably get the Enell, but I just wanted to try the Lunaire and see how it was. She proceeded to try to force me into like 6 different pair of Lunaires. The first one which was my size just didn’t offer any bounce control at all. So she decided to try more sizes, and after awhile I just told her that I wanted to try on the Enell. Well, she brought me back a size 3. I raised my eyebrows but didn’t say anything. I put one boob in it and she shakes her head and says “Oh no, this won’t do, it smooshes you”…Um, enells smoosh you that’s how they work. As long as it holds me in and I can breathe correctly, I don’t care.She could’ve at least let me actually put the whole thing on.

She then goes and gets a size 4 which is huge on me and she lets me know that it just won’t work. Well, duh, it’s too  big! At this point I’d had enough and put my top back on and got out of there. She argued with me, but luckily DS threw a big fit at that moment as if on cue and I got out of there. The running store sells sports bras and I think I will just go there and buy an enell.

I’d really like to use Moving Comfort Maia, but I’m afraid that my breast size will change when I lose weight and stop nursing, so I don’t want to spend that much money on a bra that comes in a specific size like the Maia. I wore a size 1 enell when I was thinner and I think I would be able to fit it again one day for running and then wear the size 2 for other lower impact things.

Ok, baby has a poopy diaper, so I have to go. Not the most glamorous end to a post, but it’s raw reality. :D
