Ha! Didn't even notice the October yesterday! I guess it's wishful thinking on my part for cooler weather.
Laura - that run analysis sounds amazing! I think I'm going to look into that at some point before I get extensively into training for my half ironman next year! I know have plenty of issues with my running and it would be nice to have that adjusted!
I slept through my alarm yesterday and missed my run, I purposely decided not to do it today either. Mainly because it's a heat advisory where we are breaking record. Yesterday hit 117 and today is supposed to be much of the same. Combine that with it actually having some humidity in the air and the temps are not dropping in the mornings which is what usually happens here. So I figured better safe than sorry! I'm going to do a long bike tomorrow, and I still have my Pilates class today.
My friend came over yesterday and we had a wonderful time! She brought mini-bundts from Nothing Bundt Cake and they were delicious! So that was my reward for a job well-done this week! I'm also learning in my first week with this healthy habits program to not look at food as good or bad. They don't have a moral value, just serve different purposes. So I enjoyed last night knowing it was a high quality dessert and that I've been consistently eating well. Definitely went over yesterday but I purposely didn't count them. I'm getting on evening off a week to just enjoy myself. Every other day, I'm counting each and every calorie!
Dad's birthday party is today! Might eat one cupcake but not much else. Kids are exited and I still need to get him a present lol. Not sure, but probably will just be an iTunes gift card. They kind of have everything they want, so we'll see.
Have a great day everyone!0 -
Parents are hard to buy for. My mom has been trying to get rid of stuff the past couple years so the last thing they want is more junk. So they get gift cards. Just gave my dad one to Sam's Club for Father's Day because they shop there all the time. We all like practical gifts. My sister has started giving me things like trash bags, paper towel, etc for my birthdays, which I love.
Val that heat sounds dangerous to run in so glad you didn't go out. Hopefully you get a break soon so you can get back out.
I woke up really early this morning and couldn't get back to sleep, so I showered and hit the road at 5:45. Was home before 8:00. Ran a couple errands, got my laundry going, and a friend dropped her cat off for a week while they refinish their floors. She and my male cat are slowly getting used to each other. My female has been upstairs for hours and I don't think she realizes there's another cat in the house. When I go up there she's very relaxed anyway so she's not just hiding up there.
I'm taking a rest day today. I typically run Saturdays but I'm not supposed to run 2 days in a row because of my leg and with the test yesterday Jason suggested waiting. In the end I didn't run much, but with driving back from the Cities then Rita (cat) coming over tomorrow works better anyway. It's hot (by MN standards) and very humid today. Temp is in the upper 80s with the dew point in the low 70s.0 -
I find out fav local restaurant even if its a small place and call for gc. Do that for my mom and daughters. My other daughter is a major cook who actually wears a apron and they get yucky by end of year so while we travel i look in cute shops and get her new one every year. I just sent her a cute summery one from Ashland OR last week.
Bad nights sleep again, not hot just couldnt sleep, too much on my mind. My husband is worried house has too many problem so until he goes to inspection Tuesday everything is on hold.
Air ok but hot out, when it cools later i will go for long walk.
