FINDING TIME...TO RUN...TO WORK...TO LIVE!

Yesterday, was a little nuts. I'm running a project in Houston and I feel like I'm totally behind but its because I'm still running another state (Nevada) and a project or two that come with it. Also, in Houston I'm working on state plans and just overall administrative duties that we all know can take lots of time.

So yesterday I left the house 30 minutes late and after a dragging 2 mile run I had to walk another mile to get to the car and I had no time to make it to the gym to change before my morning conference call. I thought throughout the day that I would once again hit the 24 hour to get in a regular workout with weights etc but I don't leave the office until after 8:25 pm. WTH!! This is an off-year. I know that we are gearing up for the 2012 season but really. So I didn't make it to the gym because I would at least like to spend 15 minutes with my nephew before he goes to bed.

This morning I left the house at a usual 6:30 got to the park by 7:20. I finished my run just before 8:00 am. Just enough time to hit the gym and Starbucks for my usual coffee. Now it takes me 20 minutes to start and post this blog now I can get my day started with past due task items.

I know I shouldn't be complaining when there are plenty of mothers out there that somehow find the time (or not). And I have no kids to pick up from the sitters or to take a bath and get to be by a certain time. Or a husband to cook dinner for. But I can't help it. Why am I working so much? Why is there so much on my plate? I will say that I am happy to be spending this time in Houston and somehow it's actually helping stick to a regiment even if it's only been a week.

WE NEED TO STOP LIVING TO WORK AND JUST WORK TO LIVE!!

Until Tomorrow...TOOTLES

WEEK 12 TALLY: 8.2 MILES
