I've been really pissy lately, so can we do a happy random post?
Me: I've been on high dose prednisone for 2 weeks now (>60 mg). I already weighed over 190 and freaked out at the weight gain prospect. Apparently that was the kick in the ass I needed. Cut back to 1500 calories, tracking religiously. Seriously watching my salt intake (thanks BP) and blood sugars.
I'm down 6 lbs as of this morning!! Woohoo!!
(yes, I am being closely followed by drs. Like twice a week. And am having tons of other side effects I'll be chatting with the dr about this afternoon. But I am so, so excited that I might make it through 2+ months without a massive weight gain. Even if my face has already turned round).

I'm running a 5 mile race tomorrow, and I'm really excited. In Feb, I could barely run for a minute straight. I can't believe I am going to run 5 miles!
My sister and her boyfriend are visiting from DC and are staying for the weekend. Her boyfriend happened to have a work conference in Boston, so he drove himself up instead of flying. He showed up on our doorstep last night with TWO GIANT Mike's Pastries boxes full of cannolis, whoopie pies, and brownies. Holy crap I hope this one sticks around.

:Y:
I am so happy my long run is over for the week so I don't have to do it tomorrow. It feels amazing! Plus this weekend is full of fun stuff. I am so excited.

That is awesome!! And inspiring. That might be my next goal. I've been thinking of running for years.
But then I see awkward's whoopie pies. Hmm. Tough choice.

You run so you can eat! Like the cupcake I just shoved into my mouth at 10 in the morning. ;-)
DH's business trip next week might have been postponed, which means we actually will get some time together in this month! (we've been switching off who is gone for which week, and this trip for me was international, so travel time chewed up both the weekend before and after... we've had about 2-3 days together in the last three weeks...)

Yes! I run so that I can eat whoopie pies! I lost ~30 lbs on WW, but I have kept the weight off through running, even though I don't really watch what I eat (I try not to be disgusting, but I definitely have treats).

I started C5K program this week; I'm ridiculously excited about getting my pre-baby body back. I miss my clothes.
I was annoyed DH decided to telecommute today on my telecommuting day but realized it means he can pick up DS tonight from daycare and I can get a jump start on car shopping. I'm buying one this weekend (hopefully). One that has a hood that opens and a rear window not on the verge of falling off (secure if shut though).
And an lol, last night DH came in and told me not to get suckered into an extended warranty. Really? He totally did last time. He shouldn't be allowed to shop alone.
OMG!!! I GOT A SECOND INTERVIEW FOR MY DREAM JOB!!!! I am shaking I'm so excited!!
Congrats ijack! When is it?
Thursday morning. I am freaking out. I had really convinced myself that I wasn't going to get a call back. AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!! And I can't make any noise about it at work because that would be in poor form so I'm exploding.
And early congrats to you ffbride -- I'm going to guess boy
Everyone guessing today says boy. People who have been guessing since I got pregnant say girl. Apparently the baby is having a dance party today and wont stop moving which probably means it will calm down when I go and be uncooperative.

Good luck! That's an awesome accomplishment!
It's going to be such a great day. I ran this am, love my outfit, have some fun projects to tackle at work, have coffee, and have a client picking up a huge order tonight. For all the stress of the week, this is the most awesome way to end it.
And I get on an airplane to go see a whole bunch of my favorite people in less than 24 hours!!!
