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?

15 days

As of yesterday, it has been 15 business days since I submitted my paperwork to State Farm for all of the things that were stolen from my apartment. They have never reached out to me, but I have called them three times. First, with questions before I submitted my paperwork (this was when they told me they had 15 days to accept or reject my claim but that it "never takes that long"), then to see if they needed my new address since I was moving soon and finally last week to get an update on my claim status (this was when they told me they were just waiting on the police report which they had requested on August 16 and it only takes 3 or 4 days). Maybe they put a note in your file every time you call and make you wait that much longer before they finish your claim.  I just want to replace what was taken from me. According to Texas law, there are deadlines for insurance companies to act after you’ve filed a claim. They must accept or reject my claim within 15 days after m

Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder?

The I can't believe it's been about seven months since the last time I posted a blog. Did you even notice I was gone? So much has happened in the time that I have been gone. I'm not sure I would be able to get the whole story out or even know where to start. The 2017 #HouMarathon, the twin's last chemo and radiation treatments, me accepting a new position with Susan G. Komen Houston, Aunt Sandy practically in remission, I lost Lola, I got Jewels, my second trip to Denver, my little sister's wedding...the list goes on and on. It's been a very rocky eight months. Personally, professionally, any way you want to look at. But I'm moving into a great place in my life right now and that's all I can ask for.  I was devastated just over a month ago when I lost Lola. She was having trouble breathing one night and by lunch the next day the vet had told me there was nothing they could do. Tumor in her left atrium. I  had to let her go that afternoon. 

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
