Well! We had a FUN weekend!! Saturday was especially nice as I was with my youngest scalawags for most of the day!!
The weather was so nice! The day started out with my daughter and her friend running a 5k! I do believe this was the first race she has done. Later on that day she told me,”Mom, ya know, I really don’t like running. I thought I would, running with my friends, but I really don’t.” Ha ha! I’ve told her many times that it’s o.k. if she doesn’t like to run. She sees how much I like it and she thought she would like it. That might change. I didn’t really like to run at 12 either!
I didn’t run. I cheered them along the race course and yelled as they ran through the finish line! This morning however, I thought I’d give my 6 miler a go! My body didn’t like that and my brain was remembering what I did a little over a week ago. My heel started bugging me and my legs still felt rather weary. I gave it a good effort, but I think I’ll be spinning and lifting this week.
I ate WAY too much this weekend and I am SERIOUS this time about not giving in on my goals!! Only healthy eating for me. I MIGHT give myself a 3 hr. eat whatever I want window on Sunday! Here is the usual list (:
- Write down what I eat
- 5 fruits and vegetables a day
- No eating past 7:30 p.m.
- Jamie Eason weights 6 days a week
And of course NO SUGAR!!! I want to keep this up till the last 3 days of October. AND…if I do, I’m going to the GAP and buying myself a new outfit. They have the cutest stuff right now!
Back to my fun weekend with the kids!!! After our 7 am 5k, I hurried home to gather up my 2 kidlets and we went to brother’s football game, which they LOST!! First loss of the season and the other team was super awful! We had a yummy lunch after and then we went home for a bit. I had to sit out back in the sun for a half hour or so!!! We ran up to Lagoon a little bit later and had such a fun time riding the rides, walking around, and enjoying all the Halloween decorations! AFTER Lagoon, we made a quick stop at a new shopping center close by. Loved it!!! I need to go back with my girlfriends. We bought pumpkins at the grocery store! We didn’t get home till dinner time. The BIG football game was at 8:30 and we went over to the cousins to watch that. Fun times with a bunch of little league football boys rooting for the wrong team (: UTAH won (as usual) Hee hee!
2 songs I LOVE today. An oldie Bon Jovi-Always * and the funniest video my daughter showed me. Makes me smile (: Brave by Sara Bareilles. Love it!! Be BRAVE!!
