Monday Randoms

How was everyone's weekend? I had a nice weekend. I ran errands on Saturday morning and then bl and a friend came over for dinner. Sunday I did absolutely nothing other than watch Law & Order SVU.

Woke up early today and went to Bar. I like my outfit today and actually put on a little bit of makeup, so I'm feeling like today is going to be a good day.

I had a good, but mostly lazy weekend. I woke up on Sunday with my throat on fire, so I barely moved from my couch all day. Today I woke up and I am pretty congested. I am hoping it doesn't get worse. Today is 80s day at work, so I have pink and blue eye shadow with a high side ponytail.

The guy I dated for about 5 months before I moved to FL text me a fairly lengthy apology yesterday morning, was nice to at least get the acknowledgement of his shitty behavior. I guess he has been single for all of like 30 hours. I hope he will take some time now and learn to be okay with being single, but I highly doubt he will.

I'm off today and was thinking about taking DDs to the beach. It's cloudy out, but the forecast isn't calling for any rain, so we'll probably still go.

We'll need to be home in time for XH to pick them up later, and then I'll probably do some laundry and cleaning.

I had a good weekend.

Friday I got to drive with the top down in a convertible for the first time and had a delicious dinner with new friends.

Saturday I slept in until noon! Had a great first date with a really nice guy. We already have plans to hangout tomorrow for his birthday. I think I'll get him a cupcake and buy him a drink when we're out.

Sunday I was productive, did some cleaning, grocery shopping, paid bills and cooked for the week. It was so hot!!

My weekend was good.

On Friday I saw the Lily Tomlin movie, Grandma. Saturday I had a 5k, lunch out and baptism. Sunday was mostly work but I also did my long run and played pool. I got a cortisone shot in my wrist and it seems to be helping, so I'm happy about that!

I'm making a commitment to get healthy. I hate my body right now and it's making me miserable.

I started the Couch to 5K program today.

I LOST MY PHONE THIS WEEKEND!! I feel so naked. AND I just upgraded in May.
Luckily, I know a few peeps with a phone I can borrow and just found out my work has loaners available, too.

I was in SoCal this past weekend and it was the first time since I left that I actually missed it, but I think it has to do with the area I was in-a bit north of where I primarily lived and wanted to get away from. Ironically, I just got recruited for a position at a decent company down there. I doubt they can pay me enough to make me want to leave where I am, but it's tempting. I'm overworked/underpaid where I am, but not ready to leave my area.

Have you ran before? Sign up for a 5k now so you have a goal to work towards. :-) Good luck with it!

That's so exciting that you are being recruited!!! I mean you can't leave the area. I will hold you hostage:) But that's such a great boost!

I know! I kind of needed to hear it, honestly. 

I won't leave...unless they can pay me like $50000000032034u8394374389, 000,000 to be able to afford to live in SoCal again.

Yes I have.  8 half marathons and a full, plus other shorter distances.  I've decided my racing days are over as I just don't enjoy them as much as I used to and the training stresses me out.

Saturday I spent the evening with my ILs. H didn't come because he said it would be too awkward since we had a huge fight Friday. They're so mad at him right now they didn't even care that he wasn't there.

Yesterday I went to see Rob Thomas with the Plain White T's and Vinyl Station. It was amazing! It was so nice to have one evening with no worries and I was able to just have a good time with my BFF.

Hahaha disregard my advice then! :-) I'm in a similar position as you -- I'm training for my LAST half for a while and I'm going to focus on running for fun after it's done.

It was a good weekend. Last weekend was insane so this weekend I was grateful to spend downtime getting caught up on things and with P. I bought him a kids bible and he loves it. We had a good day on Sunday; went to church, then fro yo and then he and i went to a park.

BF and i had an awesome talk on Friday night. We've talked future before but this time we talked more concrete. We could see ourselves getting engaged around winter time and maybe married next fall. That would mean we'd have been together almost 1.5 years when we got engaged and around that time we'd move in if all goes well. It was kind of surreal to talk like that but sooooo exciting!!!

I just saw video of myself. I need a haircut and a diet. blergh.

My weekend was okay. I laid around the house and did some work to try and catch up a little from the 4 days I missed. I went back today, but it may have been a mistake. I'm experiencing whiplash symptoms and more intense back and leg spasms. My hand is super swollen.

I'm WFH tomorrow because I don't have a ride to work and I still can't drive. I hate having to depend on people for things especially when they won't take any money or anything in exchange. I feel like a mooch.

My godmother cooks meals for the week, so she has been making extra servings and bringing them over for me. I never realized how hard it is having a thumbless dominant hand, especially when it comes to cooking!

Hugs. I hate it when I look at myself in the mirror and think I look good, then I see a pic and can see every one of the 25 lbs I've gained.

Why is that?  I know I'm not thin but damn...  I also weight somewhat recently- went down 2-3 pant sizes and have had people remark about the amount of weight and then I see myself and am still shocked?  Ugh.
