I had really great intentions of doing my vacation re-cap dureing the week but I wanted to spend some more time on it so it will be sometime this weekend. I have to confess that coming back to work and trying to get back to the grind has drained me a bit {read: I started watching The Bridges of Madison County when I got home from the gym tonight and ran out of time}. It's always good to get back to the normal routine after vacation but it seems extra hectic with the holidays upon us.
A few things for this week so far:
- There was a certain amount of disbelief when I came back to work with an email from TDH that he sent to me on Saturday night...that he hoped I was enjoying NYC and some other crap about the game. I've been glaring at it in my inbox all week. It's doubtful I will respond. It doesn't even come close to an acceptable apology. Not even close.
- I am determined to make my master Christmas list and complete all shopping except for small stocking stuffer items by Sunday.
And seriously I'm not trying to be a Grinch this year but I haven't put any decorations out and I don't think I will. Ok -- I take that back. I unpacked my holiday wine glasses. Those are out and currently in heavy rotation. I just feel like the holidays are super hard for single people {maybe that's just me}. It's not that my family isn't close by and that I don't get to see them -- I do and we have Christmas practically all of December -- but it's not the same.
- In honor of my love for hot chocolate I have signed up for the Atlanta Hot Chocolate 15k {9 mi} for January 13th. This leaves me a little less than 6 weeks out with not much running since the half marathon in October so it may not be a stellar performance but I think I can easily handle the distance.
What are y'all up to this week? What are you tired of? Anyone done with their shopping? Training for any races?
Love you. Mean it.
