I HATE RUNNING
I HATE RUNNING

So my sweet, over enthusiastic hubby has us running a half marathon in July.

In all fairness, I signed us up.... but it was his idea!!!!!

Hence:

Hal Higdons 12 week training program for half marathon...NOVICE

yes thats me!! NOVICE runner....is it even running when you can walk faster?

week one_ longest run : 4 miles    whew felt awesome, I did it!! 4 miles!!

week  two- longest run 4 miles... yippee...

now Im on week 3 just finished my 3rd run for the week

tonight? 3.5...... YOUCH!!!!! why am I so much more sore today?

welp.... i am looking forward to a refreshing 5 mile run on sunday.....

WHATEVER!!!!!

At what point am I going to start liking this BS

Right now, I just feel old....

one more confession... I am way too jealous that my husband can run faster than me.... I mean seriously, so what that he is in terrific shape (woot wooo),,, does he have to show me up like that ;)

If this has totallly inspired you to train for your own half marathon check out my training program

ups and downs

It has been a busy busy week... running and working and being productive.. I went from good things happening for my job to..... making the decision to go see my terribly sick grandmother (  I knew I couldn't stand to see her suffering).

~family~
I am only super close to a couple people in my family. I really kinda think I am just a loner. I am an only child raised by a teenage mother whom I have endless issues with. Needless to say we aren't close, we rarely see each other even though we live in the same city. Sometimes I feel really bad about that. My husband reminds me that I would be happy to spend time with her is she had the desire. ....

From my mother, I am blessed with  a great big extended family (she has 5 sisters and a brother).
I have grown up with so many cousins and am still close to some today!

Back to my Grandma...... she is sick..... Her lungs are in horrible shape and there are times when she cant breath.. I haven't seen her for a long time .. for no good reason other just being busy with my own brood.. I went to see her this week and she was just good old grandma cracking jokes and singing songs.. I fell in love with her all over again.. how could I go SO long without seeing her!! My grandparents lived in California most of my adult life.. even though I talked to them on the phone occasionally, I was used to not seeing them.... When Grandpa died, she moved back.. I have no good excuse...

Because grandma is sick, My one and only uncle came to town.. Michelle, you said it best when you said all the good memories just came flooding in.... I miss that guy!!!

now the downer..
some days I just don't feel cut out for the real estate biz.. My fun clients whom I was helping them buy a new home and sell their old one...totally got cold feet and backed out of both.. Although I don't blame them and I understood their anxiety ... I felt like I got fired. I am broken hearted today.
well I just have to get back up (again) and go get some more business.
In the last year I have discovered a very stubborn streak in me..  I don't want to fail!! and quitting is failure.. I cant walk away from something even if its making me crazy or breaking my heart... I want it to work! I want to succeed!

My son turned 17 yesterday!! ahhh stop getting older!!!!

Here is hoping for some happy posts next week!!!

Thanks for reading :)

On a brighter note.. my cutest bestest Cuz is opening a Cupcake bakery in Ogden!!!!! I went JuNkIng with her today to furnish the shop and then got a personal tour of her new space! I have soo much fun with that chicky :) I am super excited for the place to open... she has been dreaming of this for a long time!
