Time for a change?

I say that a lot. I really want to mean it this time. I do want to have a healthier life. Hopefully it will help with a few things. Like the fact that I am tired. All the time. I woke up this morning exhausted. After a fairly restful weekend.

I haven't been working out too much since Doug came to visit. So I need to work on that. And I was eating well until vacation. And then I had 10 days of complete, eating whatever I wanted. Even though I was only on vacation for four. Oops.

But I'm also not going to throw away all the unhealthy food in my house. It's just too much money to waste. Which is how this dinner happened last night. I have some chicken salad left, some lunch meat, mac n cheese. I'll finish up the perishable stuff and slowly cut out the other stuff.

I want to start out by doing this:

And then move on to this:

And I can't forget to add in the exercise. I should/could start training for the half marathon I am running in October. I want to run at least five days a week. Strength training would also be a good idea. A few sessions a week of cross training. But I can't jump all in at once bc I will never keep it up if I do. I need to come up with a plan for that too.

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...

Weekend recap

I actually went out! Friday afternoon G text me did I want to go to dinner. Obviously the answer was yes. I have a great time with him and we can talk track for hours. I'm always early when I go to dinner with G bc I don't want to go home first, but we don't usually meet until 6:30pm. So I was early again Friday and sat in my car, with the heat on, reading. When he got there, I got out and we started to walk in only to see a sign that said closed for private party! You have got to be kidding me. I feel like their facebook should have mentioned that. So we walked across the street to some bbq place. BBQ in Texas is different. And, I think, not in a good way. I've been a few times and I don't think I need to go again. But it was a small place and we were taking up a needed table, so a while after we were done we headed down the road to Starbucks. And were there until they closed. Saturday morning I had an appointment at a local salon for a facial (sorry mom). For ...

Here's what: March 21

Here's what three things I'm obsessed with this week... The Girls Night In that Deb and I are planning for when I'm home. We're slightly obsessed and have a whole private pinterest board to prove it. Now if only our family would actually respond to invite we sent out... I know I've included this race in the past, but now that it is this weekend I am starting to freak out. My "training" since running Austin has been close to nonexistent, much like K's, and E ended up with a minor stress fracture (!) but is going to run it anyway. Hopefully A will keep as all going. And the twins. Our birthday is in 13 days and I will be home for it! There are  plans to be made.
