Failed

When that alarm went off at 5:15 this morning I could not drag myself out of bed to hit the treadmill. I wish I was back in college when 6 AM workouts were mandatory. Or if my running buddies actually lived near me instead of 2.5+ hours away. I know if I had to meet someone at a certain time to get my workout in I'd get up. I just like my sleep too much to get up on my own. So it looks like I'll be hitting the treadmill as soon as I get off.

I can't believe it's been 12 days since I've heard from hubby. The days are flying by! He could be home this time next week!!! With everything that's been going on with my grandma the house is a wreck...it's going to be a busy weekend with getting everything in order for his arrival plus I have to squeeze in a few hours of work.

I need some advice...I can't decide if I want anyone to go with me to pick up my hubby from the airport. Part of me wants him all to myself those first few hours, but then the other part of me who loves pictures wants someone there to take pictures those first few minutes (you all know what cute pictures come from those moments). What should I do????

1 more week!

My hubby will be on his way home in a week! I'm so excited but so nervous at the same time...I'm just so worried that it's going to be awkward. I'm sure it will at first but then hopefully we'll jump right back into the swing of things. I'm working on trying to surprise him with UK basketball tickets one of the weekends he's home and Breaking Benjamin tickets the next weekend with his sister and her fiance.

Got a great workout in this morning...five miles! My right calf bothered me the entire time and it was swollen afterwards. It better not start acting up! I've got goals to reach and I don't want to get too far behind in my first month.

Got two long days ahead of me with the viewing and the funeral...and tomorrow is my dad's birthday...wish it could be a happier one.

Quest to 1000 has begun

I've felt so disconnected from the blog world the past couple days. I'm finally back from my weekend trip and happy to report I purchased my first pair of shoes from Fleet Feet...Brooks Ravennas! I tested them out tonight and felt the difference. I got to talk to my hubby on my drive to Louisville Friday...it'll be the last time I hear from him until he's on his way home in 2 weeks. They've moved bases and have no electricity except a generator for the important stuff like heat! My journey to 1000+ miles has begun, didn't get in as many miles as planned this weekend but it's a start. Official training for my 2nd mini begins tomorrow!
