Seriously this month has almost made me go crazy!!!! School was intense, plus work and a few side things that needed done. My last class for this first summer session is done tomorrow so that is fabulous! Then I get the whole month of June off.
So I actually miss running. And since it has been crazy busy around here I haven't had the time. I know I needed a break but it has been like 3 weeks and I am nervous I will have lost it all. So hopefully after this class is done I will have some extra time to get back into it :)
I had a bad week last week...most of it had to do with school and stress but I hate weeks like that. On Friday after work I wanted to do nothing and just go home and watch TV and sleep. I haven't felt like that in a while. I wish I had something interesting to talke about, but school, work, they just aren't hot topics :)
Whoever reads and comments you can list something you want me to talk about or ask me a question :) I'll post about it!

The Crazy Weekend
Well ladies and gents I did it!!!!! I finished the MINI....a 13.1 mile race that I had been training for for a few months.
Now that it is done, it has been a couple days, I'm not sick anymore, and just a little sore I can say I am so glad I did it!
Do I want to do it again?? Not right niw :)
It was long and I was lucky to have such a reat God and running partner with me the whole time. We went to eat at one of my favorite restraunts, because it was my idea. I was starving and I ordered food...it came out...I quickly changed my mind. I guess I was pretty pale at this moment. So they ate and I oredered a to go box :) (I ate cookies and a chewy bar and a few bites of banana (yuck) right after the race) Then we went home and I showered and started feeling much better. So I run 13.1 miles and then I decided to go to The Amazing Race ( for a relay for life team) and really it wasn't bad. I did not push myself...probably didn't take it easy either. And then we ate dinner and I ate it all :) I knew that appetite would be right back. Came home we all three sat down in the living room...no tv....and passed out at 7:30 pm. I think they went up to their room about 9:30 but thankfully left me alone and slept until 7:30 am. It was a great sleep. However my poor mom did have to lift me up off the couch that next morning :) I was very very sore. from my head to my toe nails :). We had a good Mother's Day ...I had to work in the afternoon and that was rough because I did not want to be on my feet the whole day but my boss was very considerate. I am feeling even better this morning. I got out of bed all by myself and don't get me wrong I am still sore but I can move!!!
I now have 3 days of summer vacay left (with work) but no school so thats a plus. In 4 days I start a summer class that I think may make me cry. And in 5 days I will be in Tennessee celebrating the wedding of one of my bests :) It is going to be a good week and weekend!!!!

Emotions
This morning I am feeling so many emotions! I am overly anxious, excited, stressed and I don't even know what else.
I woke up knowing that tomorrow at this time I will be starting my first mini. Yes I have trained and yes I have had many many people tell me I will be fine and do great. It is overwhelming. I am so nervous for it and in all the nerves I have lost the exctiement. I have the best running partner and I know God has put her in my life not just for running but for much much more. I am thankful for all the running and supportive people He has put in my life. All this race stuff is on my mind when I should be focusing on other stuff...
other stuff.... I still have a big project to get done today. I am not scared I cannot get it done but I cannot focus on it. That is why I decided to pause and write about everything and hopefully this helps me clear my head, get my project done, and then go on with my day. I am glad that my day is full of stuff to do so maybe I won't worry over the race and just calm down. I cannot imagine how I will feel tomorrow morning :/
Also today is JBC's graduations....where friends I went to school with for 3 years are graduating. I am so happy for them and proud to call them my friends....I am also so sad I am not there to watch or participate. I love that God has brought me back home to go to school and I really love where I go and how it is going but I am still a little sad to be missing this very important day in their lives.
I am sure if I could just cry it out that would also make me feel better....but no time!!!!
Got to get started!
