Long Weekends Rock
Hey there everyone - just wanted to check in. Things are just fine. Had a sort of a crappy few days at work (I've dusted off the ole resume but haven't sent it anywhere yet - 'nuff said). Thanks goodness it was a short week.
Tuesday I had a good workout with Tara, took Wednesday off. On Thursday I left work at 3:00 pm and did my strength training. Yesterday I got in a lot of walking. We got up early and went to see Hancock (thumbs up), then walked to Macys because it was time for a new shower curtain (I had been meaning to get one since, oh, February). After that we walked over to Fanueil Hall/Quincy Market and had lunch at Houston's. I had the babyback ribs - yummy! I haven't had them since before I started JC, so almost 2 years ago. Then we walked home. Took a great nap and watched some tv. We didn't go out to see the fireworks, because we can actually see most of them from our window. Plus, the noise really freaks Tigger out so we stay home to console him.
I woke up at 5:00 this morning planning on doing the fun run with Team in Training, but it was raining and I was pretty tired, so I snoozed for a little while. Got back up around 6:45 am and had my breakfast and some coffee and headed to the gym. I did 6 miles on the treadmill and felt fabulous, except the sweat was just pouring off of me. I couldn't believe how soaked my clothes were!
After showering I walked down to Emerge and had a great mani/pedi. My poor feet are in such bad shape. I've started taping my insteps and my big toe to help keep the blisters away. At least the toenails that I lost are growing in nicely.
Jerel was waiting for me in the car so I didn't have to walk home (what a guy). Had some lunch, took a little snooze, and thought I'd let you all know how I was doing.
Tonight we're going to dinner at Scampo, and tomorrow I need to get in my strength training and run a few miles.
We're thinking about getting the iPhone 3G went it comes out next week. Jerel said he did some research and talked to AT&T, where we already have our cell service. It would be great to have, but not sure it's absolutely necessary.
I'm still working hard to raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I've raised my personal goal to $7500 and I've updated my training website so stop by for a visit!
Have a great rest of the weekend!
