"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. And I
don't want to get to the end, or to tomorrow, even, and realize that my
life is a collection of meetings and pop cans and errands and receipts
and dirty dishes. I want to eat cold tangerines and sing loud in the car
with the windows open and wear pink shoes and stay up all night
laughing and paint my walls the exact color of the sky right now. I want
to sleep hard on clean white sheets and throw parties and eat ripe
tomatoes and read books so good they make me jump up and down, and
I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad He gave life to
someone who loves the gift." --Shauna Neiquist

Countdown to 2011...Day Five

Sooo, yeah. It took me the rest of this work week to get over that stupid cold. I'm still a little congested tonight, but everything else is back to normal.

I missed a whole week of running. I'm not sure what to do yet. I think I'll go for a run tomorrow and see how I feel. If I can go 28 minutes with gas in the tank, I might move on. Then again, I might just combine weeks 8 and 9 to get back on track. I'll have more information about how my body is doing after tomorrow.

Speaking of tomorrow...it's WEIGH IN day!! I'm feeling pretty good about what Mr. Scale will say tomorrow. True story. Even though I didn't get any workouts in after Monday...I did sooooo very well with my eating, in spite of being sick! Go, me! True, my protein levels dipped a couple days, but tomato soup isn't supremely high in protein...:D


Tomorrow is an important day; I best get a good night's sleep. Can't wait!!
