Confessions, Plans, Future Happiness...or The One Where I Seem to be Slightly Off...

I confess that I haven't posted any workouts since my speed work Monday because I have not worked out since then...

I confess this week has been hard.  I'm over it.  I want to move on.  And that is my excuse as to why I haven't made my workouts.

I confess I am stressed.  It takes me a long time to really feel stressed, but once I do, it's hard for me to handle.

I confess that I appreciate John more this week than I have before.  He is a wonderful man and I need to tell him that more.  And it's not to say that I didn't appreciate him before, my appreciation has just grown.

I confess that I haven't finished reading my book for book club quite yet.  I'm less than 30 pages shy, but hope to have it finished at lunch today.  (I loved the book and can't wait to write about it)


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I still can make the rest of my workouts this week still, it's just going to involve a little readjusting...which I'm ok with.  I just want to stay on my running plan so I do not disappoint myself in my marathon performance.  So, either tonight, hopefully, or tomorrow night, I'll complete my 10 miles and we'll hit up a tempo run on Saturday or Sunday morning=all runs completed.  I'm going to count my removing and replacing sod and carrying heavy-ass-pavers as my cross-training.  I'll take it where I can get it!  Don't judge!

The side yard is done!  We just have some clean up left to do.  I'll share this sorry excuse for a picture to give you an idea...
This quick shot was taken before our 9:30pm dinner last night...

You can always come out and run with me and Michelle if you need some motivation. :-)

I'm sorry it has been a hard week for you Friend.
I have gotten better about telling John that I appreciate him and thank him for the things he does and how hard he works =) I think it is healthy for him to hear even though he knows it =)
I am very much looking forward to this weekend!
The side yard looks wonderful!! =) and I would totally count the sod and pavers as cross-training =)
