Let
me fill you in on my weekend. Saturday I went with my friend Amanda
for her birthday. We went to go see Maleficent and let me tell you…it
was aaaahhhh-mazing! I will
definitely be buying that movie when it comes out on DVD. After that,
we went to do a little shopping. We went to HomeGoods first where I
bought a board with a bunch of hooks on it that mounts to the wall. I’m
going to mount that behind the door in my bathroom.
Next stop was Joann’s Fabric where I bought some red, white and blue
over-the-knee socks and a couple cheap scrapbook albums. Then we went
to Marshall’s where I picked up 2 tank tops for running, some wrapping
paper, and a really pretty notepad (for my lists
of bills for every paycheck). Then we went back to my apartment where I
gave her her birthday gifts. I got her a comforter set, a bunch of fun
knee-high socks, a picture frame and a peacock statue. She loved all
the gifts! YAY! Then, she headed home and
I went to Burlington Coat Factory to see about some flag leggings that I
had seen there when I was in Oregon that I wanted to wear for the
Freedom 5000 5K I’m running on the 4th. I bought the
leggings and a 9-opening frame to put some family photos
in. Later that night for whatever reason I decided to try on the
leggings and they did NOT fit…not even close. They wouldn’t even go
over my calves. Ugh. So, yesterday, I went back to Burlington and
returned them, then I went and grabbed the next size
up along with some other leggings that were 4th of July
themed and headed to the dressing room. Those flag leggings were just
not destined to be worn by me. When I went into the dressing room, I
also grabbed a shirt that I figured if the leggings
didn’t work, it would and it did. It’s a flag shirt with fringe around
the bottom…you know the style…it’s popular right now. So, I’ll just
wear that shirt with my black tights that have a red patch on the outer
side of each knee. I will probably also wear
the over-the-knee red, white and blue socks I got at Joann’s too.
I
was thinking I would workout Saturday evening, but it didn’t happen.
Not entirely sure why as now I can’t remember what I was doing, but it
didn’t happen. I know part
of the reason was I had to go to bed early so I could wake up at 4:30
in the morning yesterday to work the morning shift at work (overtime).
So, I worked the morning shift yesterday. I was so tired all day long.
I got home and headed to the bank to get
my money order for rent then I went to Burlington to return the
leggings and such. After that, I went to the grocery store and bought
my groceries for the week, then back home. I put away the groceries and
then hit the couch for a nap. I slept hard. I
was going to sleep for about 2-2.5 hours then get up and go for a run.
However…when the alarm went off, I felt like crap, so I just slept a
little longer, got up, had some dinner, paid my bills online. I did
forget to make my oil change appointment for this
coming Saturday. Oops.
I totaled up my mileage for June and I ran 43.6 miles.
Not
as many miles as I was wanting to log, but, considering I completely
missed 4 planned runs, that’s not too bad. If I had run those planned
runs, I would have logged about 15 more
miles for the month of June. My goal for July is to run at least 50
miles. That’s a totally achievable goal. Well, that’s not my ONLY goal
for July. My other goal is to try to do at least one session at the
gym each week, along with some swimming or cycling
once a week. Plus, I want to get the Fast Metabolism Diet started in
July also. I won’t set any weight loss goal to start off; I just want
to get to the point where my clothes aren’t tight and uncomfortable
anymore.
