(You may stop laughing now.)
Also, I was going to regularly include my "not so proud" moments but I've decided not to hold myself to that, partly in the spirit of ACCentuating the positive, and partly because I don't feel like typing [and you don't feel like reading] "I ate a lot of junk" every week. Let's just say that one's a given until I say I'm proud of not doing that.
(Don't hold your breath.)
Getting on it with it--
This week I am proud because...
~Twice, I ran three miles with negative splits. oooooh...don't get all excited: I'm still slow.
~I scheduled a session with a trainer at the Rec Center specifically to learn how to use the treadmills.
~I worked on planning the Administrative Professionals Week event coming up in April.
~I made a poster for BCT's upcoming play (All My Murders).
~I seem to be juggling work, running, choir, IAAP, BCT, Rotary... AND my husband and kids still recognize me as someone who resides in the same household (so far).
Sources of inspiration this week include...
~Lots of awesome posts by various bloggers I follow, especially Marathon Mama whose phenomenal whit and humor on any subject from superbowl half time shows to gynecologists to the Boston Athletics Association regularly causes me to come this close to shooting oatmeal out my nose and onto my flat-screen monitor. This is especially dangerous on days I put dried cherries in there [hey! that's something good I've been eating]. Perhaps next week I'll be proud of learning not to read funny blogs while eating breakfast...but probably not.
~A photo of me! in the MDI Half that I happend to find on the 5k sports facebook page. The streaming sunlight reminds me of the excitement I was feeling and conveniently obliterates all memory of stress, discomfort, and general anxiety. I feel like that pig in Zuckerman's barn. You know: RADIANT.
Have an awesome weekend everyone.
