I caught my motivation and have been working out regularly. Sometimes I think that is the one thing keeping me grounded and sane. I feel work is getting easier and a little more predictable. There are still loads of challenges. I am tired of taking classes. It is painfully unmotivating taking a course after you already walked and went through the graduation process. I have three more weeks but it feels like ten! Rob was out of the country for a week and we actually did really well while he was gone.
It was probably the first time we did as well as we did. Then he was home for a few days and then left with Kara to St. Louis. This is the second time in less than a year he has done going away for a long time, home for a few days, and then going away again. The second transition back home always is harder. I was off emotionally a good part of yesterday and feeling out of sorts. I feel a little depleted.
Our dear friends might be moving away and we should know by next week. If I had to guess, I would say we will be saying good-bye to them at the end of the school year. However, we don't know for sure. I had a dream about that very thing last night and we walked about everyone will be crying at graduation. The dream was so clear then I had to piece reality in my mind when I woke up and it took a few extra seconds.
I know we will remain friends. Hey friends are the friends forever if the Lord's the Lord of them...ha ha. We all learned that in 1987. I know in their denomination they tend to move around a lot and we would have to let them go one day. Honestly I had hoped selfishly we would be the ones to move first. Or we would both move the same summer to the same place. My reason being not because I want to move, but because I have a hard time letting go of people.
So that is where I am at right now...
For Week 6 which was the week Rob was gone I ran at the track on that Sunday (the 27th) in the afternoon. I was going to run on Monday but I slept until 7 AM. I woke up to Hailey asking, "Mom are you getting up?" Mondays are still so hard for me. On Tuesday I ran 4 miles. I did go to swimming on Wednesday. I even made it to Ride on Thursday and again was very bored. Rob came home Halloween night. I did weights and ran 3 miles on the treadmill after work on Friday. Saturday I ran 9 miles and it was very beautiful out.
This past week I ran at the track on Sunday morning. I again slept until 7 AM on Monday and forwent any plans to any sort of exercise. On Tuesday I ran four miles and I think I was supposed to run 4.5...oh well. On Wednesday I swam. On Thursday I went to ride and had to leave early to bring Rob and Kara to the shuttle. On Friday I ran an amazing six miles in the morning. On Saturday I did weights and ran three miles though I think I was supposed to do four.
The training is going super well. My pace is faster. I need to keep up with my PT though and also make sure I am not oversleeping on the weekends.
