Last Thursday, Kenny called me and said he wanted to paint, when you get home from work we will go to Home Depot and pick out the paint. To me this is wonderful because I have wanted to paint for a very long time but scared at the color choices. Friday, we had dinner plans right after work and did not get home til after nine. Saturday, we started to paint....well I cleaned off all counter space and put up all blankets to cover things while Kenny started to paint. Very good friends of ours called to ask if we wanted to go to dinner and off we went. Both nights I drank margaritas!
Sunday...I woke up got the kids breakfast and moved out of the way for Kenny to finish the painting in the kitchen. It was then I thought I am going to go on a morning run! From the start of it my breathing was off, my legs were not moving, and my head was just not being positive. I kept thinking how could my last run leave me on such a huge high and this run I am not even half way into it be so miserable? I decided right then to kick my own ass into gear, stop thinking negative and at least jog faster then I could walk because the dog has been showing off and walking this whole time. I did finish the 2 mile run with out walking at all and proud of it but also left me thinking why did I tell anyone I wanted to run a marathon.
I know now I will not and can not make excuses not to run. I am almost thinking I can not drink anymore but for now I do not want to blame the bad run on the margaritas! Last night I took off and tonight I will have a great run...thinking positive here....and hopefully last longer then 2 miles.
