Weekly Rundown
Well, it’s been quite a week! Lots of good things, but also our cat Charlotte has taken a turn for the worse. We’re keeping her comfortable with pain meds right now and we go to the vet on Monday. I’m not going to dwell on that right now, and I’m also not going to dwell on the fact that I didn’t do yoga ONCE this week. Obviously I like having an achy back. Anyway, thanks as always to Kim and Deborah for hosting the Weekly Rundown. Let’s get to those workouts! Monday I’ve realized that I underutilize my Mondays- I really need to do something later in the day, strength, or yoga perhaps? Anyway, this Monday saw a nice 4 mile run and that was that! Tuesday I felt like I got a lot of nagging tasks done this day- Caroline Girvan deadbug workout,upper body strength, and hip stability exercises. Wednesday Long run!!! 19.5 miles, split between road and trail. Thursday 2 mile run in the morning… I had two yoga videos picked out for later in the day, but it never happened. I really need to work on my “later in the day” workouts! Friday I started the morning with hip stability exercises, then it was off to the gym for legs and abs. At night we were following our high school football game. It was the last playoff game before States, it was an away game and we weren’t favored to win. Another mom was streaming it and she sent me text updates- we were tied-we were losing- we scored a touchdown in the 4th quarter- three minutes left- 16 seconds left- my heart was literally pounding just waiting for her texts. WE WON!!! 14-13, and this means the team and band go to the State Championship game this Friday. So exciting! Then, I went to bed and this is where things went off the rails. I was up half the night with Charlotte. I think I got about 3 hours of sleep, ugh. Saturday Weirdly I had a decent 4 mile run… …and then as I mentioned, her condition was stable enough so I went to work. You better believe I scarfed down some Advil to get through the day. Sunday On tap for today… so many things. Putting up the outdoor lights. Keeping Charlotte comfortable. Cleaning my son’s room. Then, Paul arrives home later tonight! It’s a lot right now, and next week is a busy one. Onward!!! How was your week? Would you be mad if I told you it was 85 degrees here?
