Weekend bust

This past weekend was a bust. I hardly accomplished anything on my to do list.

Saturday morning I got up at the crack of dawn, aka 6:30am, to meet up with E and get our "long" run in. With three weeks left until Austin, our goal was 8 miles. But as soon as we started out on our run, I just wasn't feeling it. I told E flat out a few minutes in that if we didn't make 8, I wouldn't be upset about it. If I had been alone, I prob would have just went home. But E kept me going and we ran 7.6 miles.

After a quick bite to eat, I had to get home quick and shower and then get over to the warehouse. It was clean up day. All the signage and equipment and anything else you can think of from race weekend had to be cleaned and/or organized and then stored correctly until next year. oof and it was hot out on Saturday. After five hours at the warehouse I made it home and promptly took a three hour nap. woops. Then I watched the second season of Scandal. Until 1am.

So on Sunday I just stayed in bed. First I woke up at 6am and I just would not let myself get up. I ended up sleeping off and on for another six hours! But I needed it. And I'm glad I didn't have anything that needed to be done. So when I finally got up I cleaned a little and then sat right back on the couch to watch more tv. I debated getting out and doing something, but I was just too lazy. I did run to the grocery, but that was it. The SAG awards were tonight which meant a red carpet show on E! and who doesn't love watching those?

And I did finally catch up on The Bachelor so I can watch tonight. Where do these women find their clothes? And why are most of them so crazy?

Weekend

I love weekends. I wish they were longer...doesn't everybody? It was quite the lazy weekend too, being that it was so hot out. I ran Sunday...kind of. It was so hot, I hadn't had enough water, or food for that matter, so I cut my run short. And then we opted to eat out instead of cooking. I really need to cook this week. And maybe not drink. Except I have half a bottle of red left over from last night's Bachelorette finale fiesta with E.  Monday. Oh Monday. Cancelled my run once again when the car told me it was 102 outside. Can't wait to be able to run in the mornings. Last night was the Bachelorette season finale so E came over for dinner and some wine. I now love sweet potatoes and I may have had a little too much to drink. And then decided it was a good time to update my iOS on my iphone. I'm still trying to get my phone back to where it should be. It made me do a complete restore, then I couldn't restore from a current backup and when I was f...

Rock n Roll Dallas recap

We arrived in late Dallas Friday afternoon. When we had left Houston, it was a balmy 87 and four hours later when we stepped out of the car in Dallas is was 53! Talk about a temperature drop. Saturday we went over to expo to get registered and pick up our bibs. The expo was pretty cool, lots to look at, but it took a hot minute to figure out how to get out of there which maybe was the point. By the time we went to dinner on Saturday everybody was a little concerned about the weather for Sunday's race.  They were saying it was supposed to be about 41 at the start with winds at 25-30 miles per hour and gusting to 45mph! E and A wanted to wear long sleeves while K was still talking about running in a singlet. I was on the fence. I didn't have any throw away clothes with me so if I wore a long sleeve top I would have to keep it on the whole time. In the end I stuck with my normal short sleeves and gloves. Sleep Saturday night was fitful and by the time the alarm went off I w...

Foodie recap

I love to cook. And I love to cook for other people. I may not stray too far on my menu, ok people have said I cook way too much salmon, but at least I mix up the recipes some times? All right, so I probably eat salmon 3-5 nights a week and when I'm not eating salmon I'm eating Mexican. This is Texas. But I should branch out every once in a while. I need some new dishes. Who has suggestions? Everyone once in a while, we make filets...but that can get expensive so it's usually only on special occasions - like holidays...or if it goes on sale. I've made scallops before, so good, but also expensive. I also want to stay relatively healthy. It's ok to go off the reservation and eat what I want once in a while, but I should not be doing it as much as I have been lately. Sooo...here's what I've been eating lately... Chicken fajitas I feel like there must be a veggie missing from this plate... Chicken fajitas take two Happy Mother...
