slowing down
for the first time in a long time, i am having a 100% work-free weekend. (well, except for my timesheet which i'll do later this afternoon.) yesterday we did fun shopping and browsing, had coffee and went out last night. we actually went on a date. in fact, the whole day felt like a date.
and today it's a rainy, lazy sunday. i slept in until 9 when the bulldog came to wake me up. ate a nice breakfast that the husband made. did a little bit of online browsing while he watched his renovation shows.
gonna head off to the gym for a run and see if i can do better than yesterday's 4 miles in 45 minutes run. my bum is a little bit sore from it, but that's a good thing. it felt amazing though i didn't look pretty when it was done. (i am a sweaty girl when i work out.) strapping the ipod to my arm makes it really fun – i like anticipating the songs that come next on my funky singles mix. it's a great playlist for running -- there's old school, hip hop, electronica, a bit of this and a dash of that. i just have to make sure that i don't sing out loud and annoy everyone else in the "cardio theatre". sheesh. why they call it that, i don't know. it's just a row of treadmills, a row of bikes and a row of ellipticals and steppers.
it's a fairly unremarkable sunday, but for me, that's what's remarkable about it. it feels like a vacation, which is weird since it's just a weekend. but i haven't had a weekend like this in a long, long time. and the birds are singing since the weather is tricking them into thinking it's spring. another sign of spring: the husband is thinking about renovations. he may be finallly building a door for our master bathroom today.
speaking of renovations, this week was a weird one because of one. we're having our bathroom renovated for a tv show. monday and tuesday were surreal with a house full of camera, lights, PAs and craft services. it was really fun though and i'm anxious to see the results of the reno as well as the show. they will be in the house on the 21st, 24th and 27th with our reveal filmed on the 27th. look surprised! and supposedly the show's on in april.
at the same time as the show, i was working on a pitch at work. nothing like a little stress to liven things up and keep the blood pressure high. stayed up til 4 am on wednesday and got 1 1/2 hrs of sleep since i had a personal training appointment. not fun. let's just say it was a day that felt like 10. beyond that the week flew by. the personal problem was not so bad. in fact, things seem to be adjusting themselves which makes my life a lot easier. i just have to keep an eye on it.
time to head off for the gym. better get changed. maybe i can keep this relaxing feeling going all week...
