BUT, it's Monday, and I'm suddenly feeling inspired again! So, once again, I'm linking up with the doll Kate from Classy Living for another episode of GBU (good, bad, ugly) for a little weekend recap! Let's see if I can remember much from my weekend...
The Good ~
I just started a new workout regime - 8 weeks of training to build up to walking a 5k. Yeah, I know it doesn't sound very impressive... but folks, I haven't done much cardio since high school/beginning of college when I was last in colorguard. I was never a runner. Never. So, when I was trying to start up the C25K, I about killed myself and almost lost all interest and belief that I would ever do a 5k. My husband found a training site with walks and showed it to me. This is what it looks like. I'm not doing it exactly like it says, since Tuesdays and Thursdays are days I work. So, we tweaked it a bit so that I'm doing my short & easy walks on Mondays and Wednesdays, then Friday is my longer distance walk & Saturday is my LONG walk. I started Friday with an easy 15 min walk & then went to a park nearby for Kenzie to play while my MIL and I did 1 1/2 mile walk. Yesterday (Sunday), I went for an hour. By myself. No music. Just me, God and His beautiful world. It was heaven! But anyway, before I babble on forever and ever, I'm now on track for my tweaked training. Did 15 min again with my MIL and will take a rest day tomorrow. I feel good, if not a bit sore. :-) i'mgonnaloseweighti'mgonnaloseweight and be HEALTHY!
The Bad ~
We missed church (again) yesterday. I was so mad at myself! My sister-in-law sent me a book to try out and I was hooked. So, I got up at 7 with Mackenzie and started a movie for her while I woke up. I ended up finishing my book and looked at my phone & it was 8. Church starts at 9 where we are visiting trying to find a new church home. I still needed a shower & Mackenzie needed her bath. UGH. **note to self: either bathe Kenzie in the evening or get off your lazy butt and start getting ready at 7. ***another note to self: pace yourself while reading... the apartment looks like a war zone because it has been so neglected while I was captured by the book. :-P
The Ugly ~
My whole moods thing is so ugly. About that doctor appointment I finally made? Yeah, she can't get me in until October 1st. I'm staring at the calendar trying to wish away those days to make it come faster. I just want to be happy. And I know, I have the power to be happy or be sad or be really ugly & angry. :-) But having dealt with this nasty depression crap since '96, I know when it's time to get a new med and try something new. So, here's hoping some new meds & possibly finding something I love doing (or starting nail tech school part time [more on that later]) will bring about a new & happier me. & getting in shape. That'd be loverly, as well. :-)
