Work will win when wishy washy wishing won't

Oh my, oh my...if we are going to continue to have beautiful days like today I will have to start going before the sun comes up or dress down a bit more.  Lovely, lovely weather!  I wish we could plan to have this for 3 months!  

I started out the day with my wanna runners.  We did day one of week two.  I had 8 ladies there today.  There were a couple who couldn't come today.  So far, so good...no dropouts yet.  I hope they all continue with the program and that the injuries stay away!  I have a few more who have mentioned they want to start...it will be fun to see how many come along this year.  

Later I went out in that wonderful sunshine with Tom.  We parted ways around 3 miles as he sped up for a progression run and I came home for the doggy mile.  

Tia hasn't been feeling great the past few days so she stayed home from school today.  It was fun to spend some time with her.  We did our Crocodile Hunter puzzle in a record 44 minutes today.  

Out in the morning before the sun came up.  Tuesday workouts have been hard the past few weeks.  Very slow this morning.

Today Tyler and his cute fiance' Chelsey are out getting their engagement pics!  I can't believe we are already doing this wedding stuff again, but it sure is fun!

Tonight we are celebrating with Chelsey as she has just completed beauty school and finished all her tests!  Yay Chelsey!

Not the best day....started off with a fall in the dark on my way to be with the Iwanna girls.  Later my daughter ended up staying home sick again.  We also had married kids coming that I wanted to visit with and have clean bathrooms for.  So I kept coming up with reasons for not wanting to get my 10 miler in today.  As you can see I gave into all the excuses. I went out and got 2 miles but just didn't want to go more. I am indeed mad at myself but I'm not going to beat myself up for it.  I just was not feeling it today and I didn't want to do it. I am planning on doing some tomorrow when I usually have a rest day to kind of make up for my slackerness of today.  

The end 

I guess my body (or more likely my mind) needed a little rest this week.  I sure did not have the running love on Tues/Wed/Thurs.  Luckily today I 'just felt like runnin'.  

This afternoon I got to go shopping with my future daughter in law, her mom, my current daughter in law and  my 2 daughters.  We were looking for bride's maid  and mother's dresses.  Didn't find everything we needed but we got a good start on looking.  

After shopping Rurika, Tani, Tia and I met up with Tom at the Pizza Pie Cafe for Tani's 1/2 birthday.  Now I'm tired...shopping wears me out.

Oh man...I just realized if I would have taken it .5 more I could have had 17 miles on this St. Patty's Day.  Oh well...I am just happy I got at least 14+ which was my goal for today.  Glad to have Tom along for most of the run.  Then Bob and Dave kept me entertained for a few miles. The last 3ish were on my own, they were the toughest but I made it through.  

We just got back from Tani and Tia's piano judging.  They both did great!  All that time at the piano and all those dollars to the piano teacher are paying off!   It is so fun to listen to them and watch them perform.
