RR: 4 miles today, probably on the TM since thunderstorms are forecasted all day. Fun fun! 5k tomorrow. Must beat my brother! Eeeeek.

NRR: C had a great night's sleep last night. 8-12,12:30-5, 5:30-7! And I went to bed at 9:30 and slept when he slept! I feel awesome. This weekend should be fun! Today is SIL's bday (the one that watches C) so we are having a joint bday party at the inlaws tonight. I think we will put C down there, since otherwise would be leaving very soon after getting there. Hopefully he goes down! Tomorrow morning is the 5k, and then my bday massage and pedi (got my eyebrows done last night!). My mom is watching C while I go, because DH is working, so I'll head back there after and spend the day by the pool. My brother and his family are coming too, I'm excited to spend time with my nephew! Sunday I'm headed to NY for Lucy's bridal shower! Exciting! I think I'll be ready for a nap Sunday afternoon though

Have a great day girls!

Hi Ladies!

RR: nada. third day off the foot. planning on a long bike ride tomorrow and sunday to try and make up  the difference.

NRR: Got home last night from work trip at 11pm. So I'm a little out of it now. At work this morning at 7. Totally planning to leave today around 3. So so tired right now. Please send good vibes my way on that job interview I had on monday. I really want to get that job. And if I don't get it, I need to talk to my company about extra compensation. tonight, M and I are just going to grill burgers and chill out. He's going to watch the football game, I'm going to switch my brain off and who knows?

back soon for personals!

MA: yay for a good nights sleep last night!

taylor: good luck with the 22! that's a long..... distance!

mel: that's a fun way to get a mid size run done with your running group! sorry you didn't win!

MA: I'm so sorry I forgot to wish you a happy birthday! Have fun with the massage and pedi!

meli: Well... we found out why DH isn't getting more calls for interviews...

lizo: Sorry for the late night! Good vibes on the job interview!

taylor: Good luck on 22 miles! Yikes... its still going to be a really long time before I even run 22 miles in a week!

As for me...

RR: Nothing today, will run 3 or 4 tomorrow.

NRR: So DH's phone interview was all of 5 minutes... the interviewer cut right to the chase and asked about DH's salary requirements. She said she loved his resume but knew from looking at it that they can't afford him. DH's salary requirement is less than he was making before, but still way above what this company would have offered. So we're pretty sure thats why he's not getting more calls... he's applying for customer service jobs but his skills are really above that. Supposedly the HR person is going to see if they could offer a higher salary so he may still end up interviewing with them... but we're not holding our breath. DH says he's going to start trying for some higher level jobs now... but who knows. He's starting the medical coding course later this month so hopefully by the end of the year he can get a high paying job doing that.

Last night was a nice night, we had dinner together and got the kids to bed early. I enjoyed reading for a couple hours, something I never do. Well, I was enjoying my book and stayed up too late, didn't go to bed until about 10:15... and then P woke up at 11, 12, 1, 2, and 4... I slept an extra hour this morning and still got to work early, but I'm reeeaaaally dragging. P's teething... we never had any problems with teething for A, we just looked one day and they were there without any warning... P's been cranky off and on with this for a week now and it doesn't look to me like the teeth are very close to cutting through. Fantastic.

Hey ladies!

RR: Did a 1 mile hike (basically walked up stairs), 6 miles easy, 3 miles with HIIT, ST, and today was 6 miles with 3 at tempo. This weekend is 13. I am LOVING my Train Like a Mother marathon training plan. It is a mix of 4 and 5 days of running and at least one ST session per week that only takes me 20 minutes so I combine with one of my easy short runs. So far so good and I haven't had any issues with my ankle that was talking to me two weeks ago.

NRR: Just vacation! I'm back from a few days in Asheville NC and we had so much fun! I'm still on vacation though We went to the zoo, a nature center, and ate some delicious Southern food (miraculously, all vegetarian! Thanks Asheville!). Now this afternoon we're going to a life and science museum. It was definitely a G-centric vacation but it was so much fun and relaxing!  

No time for personals, I have to get a shower after our run.

I think we're also taking G for his first hair cut this weekend. He doesn't really need it but it's a little long around his ears and Big D has been mentioning it.  I'm already sad about this! It's his baby hair!

NC - Everyone was VERY happy to see me, and the feeling was completely mutual!   Tons of cat hair wads on the carpet, though. I dumped the canister and vacuumed, and now it's almost full again. I furminated PnJ for less than 15 minutes last night and got sizeable balls of hair. Fay is up next. Just that time of year.

OWR- Our animals have been super sheddy lately too. Well L always is, but I brushed B the other day and go so much hair! T won't let me come near him with a brush, but he pulls his own hair out (anxiety disorder or something) so shedding isn't much of a problem for him.
