Workin’ for the Weekend: #5294

Posted by: missconstrued on: January 30, 2009

Whew.
That’s all I can say:
WHEW.
Even though I had an extra work day this week, I still feel like this week went rushingbymeatfullspeed and hunh?
I can tell when I get overwhelmed, because I start forgetting things. Forget to shave the other leg, forget to tell dh that I had to take momma to the hospital because [...]

Throwing Sarah a Bone.

So many things have happened in the last few blurry days. I thought, “I should write about it.” But because God is funny, I haven’t had a lick of time to myself. Nope, not even a swallow. Shut up. I know what you’re thinking. As you can tell, the oodles of free time I’ve had [...]

That’s NOT! Funny!

Posted by: missconstrued on: November 16, 2008

It’s all fun and game when I open my mouth. I mean, who knows EXACTLY what inappropriate little comment will come flying out? I’m stuck in Barbara Kingsolver’s The Bean Trees – afraid to death that something like “God’s Pee Pee”! is going to come flying out of my mouth while there’s company over. In [...]

The Powers That Be.

My training log looks lonely. I don’t really like the number “0″. Not even as a size.
BUT, in my never-ending quest to project POSITIVITY (because you get what you give), I am thankful that I got to spend some time with my family without being exhausted. Our new (and improved!) running schedule has us at [...]

When I Grow Up

I want to be a cougar.
RREOOOWWRRR.
Although, if the young men prancing around look like Zac Efron (too orange) and the Jonas Brothers (too squeaky AND too white) or that kid they’ve got slated to play Jacob in ‘Twilight’ (yes, I am STILL pissed off about that; he is too skinny and too pretty), I might [...]

Complication.

Posted by: missconstrued on: September 8, 2008

I find people frustrating in their predictability, at times. Thank god I am *not* a psychic. It would just piss me off.
I was not surprised today to find that someone had done exactly what I had thought they would do. Just irritated. And angry.
This person has come to my house, and made himself at home in my [...]

Manic Monday.

Posted by: missconstrued on: September 7, 2008

It should be just another weekend day for me, but really it isn’t. Training has intensified, workload has increased, chores have multiplied like guppies.
We ran 13 miles this morning. The first long run we have done SINCE the marathon. I finished in 1:51:56, which is about an 8:37 pace. MG and I just keep taking [...]

Not with a bang but a whimper.

Posted by: missconstrued on: September 5, 2008

It’s Saturday, today, and there isn’t a cell in my body that isn’t screaming, “HALLELUJAH!” I can’t pinpoint what exhausted me this week, I just know that it did.
dh, trying to be a good husband and keep me sane, reprimanded td because I mentioned that his CRAP all over the place was making me insane. [...]

Boys are Back in Town…

Posted by: missconstrued on: August 15, 2008

Wow, this is a leeetle bit ridiculous, isn’t it? I go off on vacation and think that I can stop blogging just because I am too damn lazy to write anything. How dare me! We got back to the island about…I don’t even know. On Tuesday? It is Saturday now? Is it Saturday now?
I don’t [...]

Palm of My Hand

Posted by: missconstrued on: May 18, 2008

If I were Marge Simpson do you know what I’d be doing right now? That little “hrrmmmm” thing that she does, betraying slight discomfort.
I volunteered to be on the committee of teachers who select children (from the neighboring island) to come to our school. I didn’t think spending a day with 25 bright, sunshiny, youthful faces [...]
