The Non Post

Pretty sure my work got smart and I can't use blogger now.
Welp I had nothing for today anyways! 

A local friend had a wonderful surprise for a group of us lastnight, they are expecting and it was so happy and exciting!

We are elated for them, plus their 14 month old daughter is awesome! So we have great expectations :)

But today is game day! Beat Chiacgo State! Wearing my orange and blue at work! And a friend who's got access to good seats is taking me!

Have a great weekend!! Enjoy and don't stress too much about thanksgiving plans! Think of my bathroom :) MUHA!

The Things That Didn't Happen

Sooooooo i had some lofty goals yesterday.

A few things DID Happen:
  • It rained/hailed when i left work
  • I did get to Home Depotty to buy some Studs for the walls
  • T-Dubs said he does, in fact, want to do something fun on Thanksgiving, not our bathroom
  • I ate ice cream
  • T-Dubs hairs got cut. damn, blogger fail, i should have done a before and after.

Here's what Didn't Happen:
  • I didn't run. truth gun to my head: i wasn't even going to and then i went to car and rain/hail.
  • The purchased Studs, only made it out of the back of the Prius, no further. No shower progress
  • A two a day at the Y because of the weather
  • Stretching. - my hammies are killin me from all the squatting in body pump.
  • Laundry. self explanatory
  • Coloring my GRAY HAIR.

Honestly, I am stressed about the bathroom and I am tried of sucking at it. My legs are currently sitting on a heated rice pad under me at work. ouchie. I don't cook. The long list of home repairs has my mental state with grocery shopping and meal prepping through the roof. This will be our first Thanksgiving in our home, and I was hoping to be tiling. Instead I think, I'll get hammer drunk while hubs makes me fancy dinner. Then go to work hung over. *heavy sarcasm: I am a drinker, but i don't get drunkenMCswirveandcrash. Just calling it like I see it today.

Gifford, Illinois was damaged by tornado's on Sunday. They are calling for skilled laborers tomorrow. I am skilled - sort of. This city is in my county. This is my home. I need to do a post on homes. This is the longest i have ever lived anywhere in my entire life. This is my home, and my community, and so i feel apart of that, even though i didn't grow up here. I hope I get some guidance on what steps i need to take personally.

That's all! Some deep thoughts today! Sorry i know I'm all over the place.

Monday blerg

Monday monday. la la laaaa.

Ok here is the deal, i gots things happening in life in general.
I used to blog from work. and its getting harder to do.

So don't expect a blog 5 days a week anymore. Probably not going to do Mondays and I might be skipping friday. I will try to blog at least 3 days during the week.

I love reading blogs, and often feel as though this project is wordvomit!
But sometimes i enjoy it, other times i feel like i repeat a lot.
So i dont want to write if there isnt anything to write about, or if im busy living!
I dont want to be stuck to my computer when i should be living life!

Re-cap real quick:
Punky stayed with us for one night, she was very sad, and anxious the whole time.
i love her she is such a great dog. T-dubs not so much on board with this.
He was stressed. I feel awful about that now.
Guess i should have done more, said more, taken more care of things.
I got an awesome run in after work on Friday.
The weather here was AWESOME!
I speed up a bit, and increased my distance a tad.
i LOVE LOVE LOVE running in my old neighborhood. (i miss it)
it was great weather and a great run.
one of the best i've had in a long time.
Bathroom update to come later this week!
Peace out, hookas!

Friday Friday


TGIF!
Sooooooo happy its the weekend time. Granted Ill be busting out the bathroom all weekend and puppy sitting.

Got a run in again on Wednesday after work

I am hoping this whole, i take a half hour lunch, and my boss lets me leave a half hour early to go run continues to work out.
I really love running near my job, as apposed to my home, where I'm just not into the neighborhood yet.
I also did all of my training last year here near my work, because i lived a short walk away.
so its nostalgic and familiar.

Wednesday: Farthest I've gone since injured.
Happy, very happy.
No pain. which is excellent.
feel really REALLY out of shape.
But, all that lifting must have worked because no charlie horses, no sore legs, tight muscles, etc.
and here i thought i was spinning my wheels for 6 months.

We skipped on Body Pump this morning. I was disappointed.
I was also nursing a food-hangover - see: pizza, ice cream samiches, and cake
but we can go tomorrow so here is hoping to we go ahead and go.

This also let me experiment with trying to straigthen my hair post shower pre work.
a little frumpy but im happy with it. might have to be better on my time in the mornings so i can always do this.
good grief, dye your hair already?amirght!
how do you take a selfie without man hands? I think all my mirrors are too tiny.
Also i need to find the scale at the gym, i have no idea what i weigh, and i need to start getting myself in check a bit here.
