training week #9

long run: 9.6
week total: 9.6

vacation re-entry can be tough on more than just the kiddos.
real life....overrated.
not really, it has been really nice to be back in my own bed, have the kids in their own beds, and try and find some semblance of a routine before school starts in 12 days.

but i digress....today's run....
weather: 64 degrees, no humidity, sun, and a breeze
as one facebook friend said, "what the fall?!"
it really did feel like fall and my shorts and tank were less than adequate clothing for this morning.
it was a great run to get back into the swing of it.
got some quiet reflection time for the first 5 miles....then good catch-up time for the rest. of course, it was not quiet enough time with stef....but the next run will be here before i know it and we still have much to catch-up on....

next week.... it is on!!!

12 days? What kind of school schedule does NY run on?! :) Glad you get a little more time to gear up for the year. When can we catch up? :)

Next time I see you we will definitely do yoga together! Although somehow I've been doing it very regularly and have managed to gain 2 1/2 lbs.

And yes, we loved our time with you, too.... It's always good to have conversations with like-minded people.

and we will be out numbered....

as of monday, i am through my first trimester with sweet baby #3. the sweet children will out number the adults come the beginning of march. as john likes to comment about my day to day coping skills, "her body is betraying her" as i adjust to pregnancy and surviving with two small children. i still can't find our flash drive to upload pictures....i'll work on it. it requires clearing off the computer desk which exists in the middle of the living room due to the plaster/drywall work being done to patch up the hole from the toilet leak. supposedly the new hardwood floors are supposed to arrive this week.....which means we could potentially move out of the office and back into our bedroom in a couple of weeks!!! the small pleasures in life!

more tidbits

i find it interesting....... .......how the two boys are in sync already. apparently we had not weathered the worst of operation big boy-no paci....he cried for almost an hour. what we thought would be an early bedtime was not....then asher (who was supposed to sleep until 2) woke up at midnight only to be followed by big brother 10 minutes later "scared." .......how 20 & 30 years olds (including myself) walk around the locker room delicately covered up by the towel that is slightly too small to cover my rumpus..... and yet the 50 & 60 years old strut around with no shame. nora ephron claims that the things that we things we hate about out bodies in our 20s will be the things we long for in our 50s. funny how that works...maybe i'll lose my abandon and sit in the sauna naked as a jaybird..... naw!!! .......how fun sitting on the kitchen counter while daddy cooks is for a two year old. .......how much i want to cut my hair. .......how excited i am to have gott...
