Weekend update

This morning, as Tom brought J back to the service from the nursery:

J: (walking down the hall) shhh….

J: (walking down the stairs) shhhhh….

J: (walking to the sanctuary) shhhhhh…..

J: (walking into the sanctuary) Mama! A! Mama! A!

Yesterday was the 5k. I ended up walking it instead of running. I feel pretty bad about that. I had planned all this time to run a 5k, not walk it and come in second to last. But this last month has been chaotic and I haven’t been able to train like I needed to and I didn’t want to go out there and hurt myself. So while it was likely the smartest decision, it was a hard one to make and I do feel bad, like I let myself down. I do that a lot lately, you’d think I’d be used to it.

I’ve been really down lately and I’m tired of it. So I’m only going to write light and fluffy for awhile, when I’m able to get on to write. If I don’t write…well, it’s ’cause mama taught me that if you have nothing good to say, don’t say nuttin’ at all. I’m going to work on digging myself out of the craptacular hole I’m in right now and be all nice here. So I say now…

And I’m off to bed. It’s 10pm and the natives’ll be up in a very few short hours. Or at least it feels that way…
