Rise and shine!!!! Up at 5am and started my run at 5:20am (but woke up at 2, 3, and 4am because I kept thinking I missed my alarm). During my run, I kept thinking I was being tracked by a cougar and I was going to die at any moment. It was dark and I was scared but charged forward. I ran my block twice which is 7.2 miles. No walking or stopping. I had to deal with annoying mist/rain for most of the run. I had my reflectors on my wrists since I was running in the country (I think you’re actually supposed to wear them on your ankles but I’m a leader not a follower). Oh and I ran in my jammies.
Wore a new extra long skirt from Express to work. Looks good w/a tank and flip flops but that’s not work wear so I had to improvise. I feel like I’m getting my bohemian on.
After work, I dropped off our life’s savings and my boys’ premiere soccer paperwork for the 2011-2012 season. Our kids come first so what can I say? My father in law gets peeved at our spending so much $ on sports because, back in the days….it was free. Well, it isn’t free anymore.
Joy, Joy….thrilled to say that I got my “Seagulls” shirt from www.skinnyrunner.com today. Happy days!!! Fits perfect and I cannot wait to wear it.
Came home and put the boys to work, weeding. Of course I had to pay them, the greedy little suckers.
And while they were working away, I was in the house, hiding their XBox 360. That’s what happens when their grades aren’t up to par. Not sure when I’ll return it but it’ll be a good month I’m thinking. They’re so cute in their little “Crocs”.
The boys tracked down their dad to help them w/ a ratty-looking tree that was knocked over by a storm two weeks ago. The oldest, with only a driver’s permit, asked to use my car to pull it out of the ground. Scary, the things they think to do…with a car.
Mick went and played poker. The kids and I went to the movies. I saw “Bad Teacher” w/my daughter and the boys saw “Kung Fu Panda 2”. Ice cream and a frozen banana(?!) followed.
I have a couple high school open houses and I plan to meet up with some high school mates tomorrow (flew in from CO and AZ). Should be a buzzzy but fun day. Chow!
