Happy July 1!

I cannot believe that it is July 1st already! Where has this year gone?!?! This morning I woke up early (well late for me 6am) and decided I wanted to start my day off right with a run. I ran 2 miles and it felt great! I am so excited about how PT might have helped me, but I also know I need to take it slow. I am looking forward to my run on Wednesday, it will be a 4 miler, and I know I will be ready. But, that is not why I am writing. Well, it is, but there will be a blog post about that race. I digress, my revelation for today, Wednesday will be my 6th race of the year, that means that Wednesday I will have run exactly double the number of races as last year! I am so excited to see how many I will run by the end of the year. I need to start running with my phone so that I can take photos to document some things from my run, but the scenary out on the roads is not as scenic as other places.
Oh, today continues my journey of gluten and dairy milk free. I feel like it has helped a lot with the bloating (sorry TMI) and I think it is making me eat cleaner and fresher. I will let you know how this journey continues.

So today, on the 1st of July, enjoy yourself. We will probably be spending much of the day by the pool, hanging out with some friends. I will make sure to get lots of photos! Hope no matter what you do you stay hydrated and cool.
Have fun and be safe!

It's just another manic Monday, err Thursday

Wish it was Sunday, that's my fun day. Yep, I do wish it was Sunday, that is my next day off. Well, I guess I have today off, but not completely, so I call it my quasi day off. See, I have off from working at the Hospital, I am not even at the other Hospital, but I have a class that I signed up for. This class is 4 hours long, from 330-730, which to make matters worse, I am not waking up before 4 lately, so getting up for this class means I would only be getting 7 hours of sleep, if that is all I had today. Today I also have a doctor's appt at 1215, which means I have to get up at 11, which then means only 3 maybe 4 hours of sleep. It.is.going.to.kill.me. Seriously. I tried to wake up at 3 on Wed and I think I really heard my body laugh at me right before I dozed back to sleep. How on earth am I going to survive on 4 hours of sleep??!?!? I remember when 4 hours of sleep was enough, but I am not a spring chicken any more. And, while I am in said class, the hubs is responsible for going to my folks house to drop off laundry and to pick up boxes so that when I am finished with my class I can have dinner and pack just in time for me to want to crawl into bed by 9pm. I guess I have to imagine that I am the little engine that could, "I think I can, I think I can, I think I can." What are you doing today? When is your fun day?
