I'm still here...

Someday I will return to this little blog... I just need to muster up the time and energy to do so. I have been motivated 0% to blog, even though I have much to blog about.

Someday soon...!

Falling off the bloggin' wagon

I've been pretty terrible about keeping up with this thing lately, mostly due to not knowing what to write. I've been severely in a rut as of late - feeling really tired and uninspired - so my gym-going has been really pathetic. I think I went twice last week :( boo.

I'll focus on the positive:

1. I've been much better about cooking meals for us and taking care of my household chores - this has really been a relief. I've even had a few moments to think "hmm... what should I do now?" Amazing. Yet, I wonder if there's a correlation between more housework and less getting up early for the gym... hmm... ;-)

2. I had a part in a presentation for our biggest client, and I was very nervous about it. Luckily when we got there, it was a lot more laid-back than I expected and I was able to relax and present without talking way too fast with a bright red face. So very glad that is over!

3. I worked from home on Friday, in my pajamas. GLORIOUS. As a bonus, this has felt like a long weekend.

4. Speaking of long weekend, I'm stoked to only have to work 3 days this week! And for pretty much the rest of the year, all of my weeks will be short in one way or another. Score!



5. I had a girl's night out on Friday - we met up for a quick dinner then saw Twilight {LOL - channeling our inner 15-year old!}. It was awesome to get out with other moms and laugh and see a chick flick.

6. I'm looking forward to our Thanksgiving - we're be headed up to Maryland to Vic's brother's family. Valentino always has a great time with his cousins {ages 8 and 12}, and it's always nice to spend time with my BIL and SIL.

So there are some good things that have happened this past week. I'm looking forward to a productive, health-ful pre-Thanksgiving week!

I got nothin'

Even though my attitude was good today, and I felt pretty happy on the whole, today was a day of feeling pulled in every which direction - I'm kinda wiped out.

My training has been terrible this week :-( I didn't really do any vigorous activity on Monday evening (unless you count a mostly leisurely 4 mile bike ride), and I did a really "light" 4 mile run on Tuesday. Today I didn't get home until 6pm (darn you 540 rainy-day traffic!), then it was cook/clean/get-the-kid-to-bed time.

I hope to get up early tomorrow morning and run before work to hopefully give me a boost of energy to get through the day... hope to.

This is a lame piece. Sorry!
