Work sucked. Not in a bad way, just in a “I am so busy and wondering if I can ever do this shit” kinda way. Self doubt; gotta love it. Went to get the boys and that helped. They had a great day and I can’t begin to tell you how much that makes me happy. So, I lounged. And lounged. And all the while getupnow was in my head… I made a pact with her to run to help get rid of my BAD case of the tomorrows. So, here I am… sitting, enjoying the peace, with her unknowingly looming over my head! Finally after reading a quote by Christopher Reeve (”I get pretty impatient with people who are able-bodied but are somehow paralyzed for other reasons.”), that combined with getupnow’s guilt forced me into a couple of HARD miles on the treadmill. So thanks! :)

Now, on to the story of that treadmill… I was cursed and had I not had proper motivation I would have quit before I started about 10 times. First, my back was hurting, and my belly. Then my shoes felt funny. Someone blogged about cushiony shoes and now maybe my Nike Zoom’s aren’t good enough. Maybe I want some cushiony ones, too. Then my IPOD was outta juice. So I went to borrow my sons… also outta juice. Eek! Then I start running and my ginormous boobs are making my last clean sports bra hurt my shoulders (which always happens with that one… hence why it was the last one clean. the sad part of this is that I have like 15 of them. yeah, the hubby does laundry… it’s his one chore. ugh). THEN, I have to pee 5 minutes in, and it hurts. SO I stop, go, get back on, walk for a couple minutes cause my knees are hurting. And all of a sudden: EPIPHANY… SUCK IT UP PRINCESS and effing RUN!!! And I did. I ran 2 glorious miles and I was sweating like whatever sweats a lot, and listening to nothing but my breathing. And I loved it.

So mostly what I wanted to say was thanks to all of you that inspire me…

In other news, I am nervous about my weigh in tomorrow. I haven’t been drinking enough water, and I haven’t been eating the best, even if it is within my points. Today I had cereal and a sandwich for dinner. Can we say carb hell?! Wish me luck!!!
