Most days I really feel like I have my ish together. Work- check. Child- check. Husband- check.
But there are those days when I'm convinced my head is not attached to my body and that my brain isn't turned on and I JUST DON'T WANT TO DO THE DISHES AND LAUNDRY OKAY!???!
This week I have felt behind in work and behind in life and connecting with my husband and doing more than watching TV and avoiding the dishes and laundry and staying up past 8pm. I got injured so I can't run and that is throwing off my groove and some pants just STILL DON'T FIT and yes it's bugging me and my hair is stupid and Michelle Money hates my eyebrows so I'm growing them out and I really think it's the eyebrows that have thrown off my whole week. Yes. Let's blame them!
Run-on sentences aside I just love a weekend to hit the refresh button. I deleted a stupid game from my ipad because I was using it to tune out my world and my world isn't tune-out worthy. My world is pretty freaking great and I need to do a better job at living in the moment. And sometimes I'm going to avoid the dishes until Bart does them (thanks Bart) and technically do laundry even though the clean clothes will stay in those baskets for DAYS and push all my baby's toys in a pile even though I HATE PILES SO MUCH!!!
And I am going to eat salad every day for a week (different kinds obviously) but then avoid them everyday for the next week because salad is stupid without dressing and I can't have dressing because what's the point of having a salad if I'm just going to "cheat" and put dressing on top? *side note- if any of you have a yummy homemade dressing recipe to share that doesn't have milk in it PLEASE SHARE so I can't eat more stupid salad*
But really- I'm injured and now that half marathon in 6 weeks is looking like a maybe, maybe not and that makes me really sad. My mind is ready to be hard core. My body is not.
But now it's the weekend and I can push the refresh button
I know how you feel about the whole running thing throwing you off. The air quality caused me to have an asthma attach after I ran the other day. Which is stupid and something I haven't had in years, but because of that until the air is better I can't run and it sucks and it throws you off and ... I love everything you wrote :) hopefully you have a better week next week!
ReplyDeletePS Your family is adorable! And so are you!
Awe thanks Brit! Yes crappy air is the WORST when it comes to running. I guess if I get injured it's better in January than May! Hope you and your little fam is doing well
