week 3: since I am a week late I don't really remember a ton. I have been keeping up with my training and we got our income tax back. To celebrate we paid everything off that we possibly could, put a chunk in savings, and bought a few goodies. R got a new watch, K and E got some new running shoes, dresses, and workout cloths (we are promoting exercise of course), and I got an amazing new purse for my carry on...I fell in love with it the moment I saw it and it didn't help that it was on clearance. We kept asking E what she wanted to do for her birthday and all she kept saying was a tinkerbell party. So instead of a family outing we are giving her what she wants. Its going to be small but she is going to love it. I usually go pretty over the top with decorating but I am going to try and keep it under control. I went bathing suit shopping and found my future swim suit. I wanted a few more weeks to hit my final goal and I also wanted to have a reward at the end so I decided against the purchase in hopes of fitting into it like a dream closer to my Washington trip. I am going to post a picture of it but please don't judge my scratched up iphone camera :).
One of the rewards for hitting one of my goals was some new pretty panties from VS and a few new bras. Losing weight effects the boob department! I was so excited when I tried on these adorable bras that I forgot to look at how it looked in the back lol. The cups fit amazing but when I got home and saw my backside in the mirror I felt like I had boobs in the front and in the back. I cried. R was my night in shining armor and took the bras back to VS and explained my dilemma. The manager was amazing and told R that she would hook me up when I came back since my fitting was wrong. He is so amazing right???!! I love that man! Anyways, I later went back and seriously I am sooooo in LOVE with this new fabulous bra. My mom boobs no longer look like mom boobs!!
School stuff has been a little confusing the past few weeks because I am just flat out confused on what to do and what steps to take. I have so many ideas, and things that I want to do that it seems impossible to make the right decision. I am going to sit down and write a list of my dreams and things I want to accomplish and see what comes up. I have prayed about it like crazy. I have been writing my ideas down and sketching them out just to see how far I can go with it. In a nutshell I love learning new things, I want to travel, I love being around my kids, I would love to help or be beneficial to adults and children. I would love to teach health and nutrition, I would love to start a running program for moms and children. I have some weird and crazy ideas and eventually when I am brave I will share!
WEEK 4: In week 4 I developed my hip injury. Greater trochanteric bursitis. Apparently the bursa between my bone and tendon is inflamed so when my tendon moves across the bursa it is extremely painful. My tendon moves with every step of course so you could imagine how amazing it was to work two straight doubles, do some workouts, and of course run. This Saturday during my long run I think I came into myself. It hurt more to walk then run so I just started pacing and decided that I was not going to stop. I ran 5 miles straight with hills and managed to do it below my previous best. It was an amazing feeling.
I also had a mother/daughter double date with my BFF. It was so much fun ice skating with K and doing a little shopping for E's birthday. I think the Disney store got the best of me. K and I needed this little trip together. She is getting so big and I am just amazed at how smart and beautiful she is. I love watching her do something new because her face lights up when she beats it, accomplishs it, or learns how to do whatever it is she is trying to do.
Side note- I don't talk about religion much but I can honestly say that god has changed my life a lot this past year..
There is so much more that I want to shout from the rooftops but I am super tired!! To be continued.....!!!!
