Moved to Xanga
I’m moving back to Xanga - for now at least…
I just can’t decide where I want to be. I moved my entries back, but since Xanga is all ghetto, I can’t put the correct dates next to them, so they all show up as being from today. Seriously, Mr. Xanga, you should let us be able to change the dates. Its really simple code. I could even write it up for you Oh, and I’m also bummed that I can’t bring my comments over. That stinks.
Let’s see, today is pretty quiet so far. I woke up early and went for a trail run with the kids in the stroller. Pushing 60lbs worth of kids on a hilly, gravel trail is not exactly a simple workout. I expected to go for a nice, easy 3 miles and push myself just to the top of my aerobic heart rate limit, but I think I ended up over the limit quite a bit. I left my HRM at home, so I’m not exactly sure, but I counted my pulse a few times, and it felt like it was closer to 160 and I wanted it at 150. I will have to wear the HRM next time I run… Anyways, it was way harder than I expected. My legs felt like they were made of lead. I normally bask in the experience of running, but today I couldn’t wait for it to be time to turn around!
The trail was really pretty though. It went along a river bank and there was nice tree coverage. Of course, as a woman running with just 2 kids, I feel like I have to be super cautious of freaks and weirdos. I prayed that God would protect me, but I try to use my God-given brain to not put myself in bad situations, y’know? I made sure that I was a little more covered up for today’s run, since I was going somewhere new. I kept my mid-section covered. At least there were a lot of bikers on the trail, so I wasn’t all alone. There were also a lot of construction workers around, because they’re working on the trail, but I’m not sure if that made me feel better or worse I should buy some pepper spray or something, but I just picture myself spraying some dude with pepper spray and then him shooting me with a gun. I mean, it just seems silly. It’d scare off dogs though, and mountain lions
Now I’m going to go do some fun, housewife things. Dd is napping and ds is running in circles around me (literally) so I think I’m going to let him run in the backyard. Maybe he’ll get some of that energy out. Man, I wish I had that much energy! I could’ve used it this morning.
I also wanted to add that my computer is randomly picking songs for me, so please don’t judge me because I’m listening to Squad.
