hohum......

So, I haven't really wanted to post today.  I am still pretty mad at myself about this morning's 5k.  I was hoping to at least run it under 40, but my time ended up being 42:26.  I could NOT run the entire thing.  There were some hills that kicked my butt.  :(  I went into it feeling pretty confident and came out of it feeling really crummy.

Finishing...

On a positive note, the girls from my running club who also ran did much better than me!  :)  (By like 10 minutes lol)  I'm really proud of them!

After we took pictures, got water and caught our breath, we went to find our free "lunch."  (It was 10 am and I don't eat before a race, so I counted this as breakfast!!)  We thought it was going to be a BBQ lunch but it turned out to be......turkey!  (I guess that's a big duh since this was the Turkey Trot).  I didn't think to take a picture until I ate some.  

Best turkey breakfast I ever had....

The little muffin was pumpkin or carrot or spice or something, but it was delicious!  Hubby said the teeny muffin was worth the entire trip....not sure about that.  After we ate I just wanted to get out of there.  So, we headed to Goodwill to check for ugly Christmas sweaters and milk glass.  No luck on those two things but we did find an AWESOME painting (hubby disagrees) and a replacement lid for a pot that we had lost.  Hubby thinks that the lid we found is actually our lid and we accidentally gave it to Goodwill.....LOL.  There might have been a Sangria at lunchtime and some Kahlua and coffee involved in the rest of the day.....

Sangria at the Greek restaurant!

Happy Veteran's Day!!

I hope everyone had a lovely Monday.  Happy Veteran's Day!  Thank you for your service veterans!

This is my Papa.  He served in the Army in WWII.  

My hubby is also a veteran, but I'm sure he wouldn't appreciate me sharing his service pic.  :)  

So, yesterday we went to the bowling alley and the casino!  I was super excited to go play the slots.  First we went bowling.

I did so awesomely at bowling I didn't even get over 50 on all ten frames!!  Wait, bowling is not like golf you say?  Hmmmm.  The kids had fun at least (mostly laughing at my gutter balls).  Then we hit up the slots.  I was doing fabulously and had my machine up to $100 bucks!  I was on top of the world.  Then I lost it all.  :(  Hubby said that once you double your money on a machine you are supposed to change machines.  Why did no one tell me this!?!?!  I want my moneys back.  I'm still really sad about it. 

When we came home I went for a run.  It was FREEZING!!  All my jiggly parts felt like blocks of ice when I got home, even though I was burning up.  It was an awesome run and a PR!!!  

Take that dirty, evil slot machine!!

Then, there was pie!!  Pumpkin pie!  :)

I did not run today, just worked.  I was supposed to go to  PiYo class but it got cancelled.  Tomorrow is a run day and I gotta find my long running pants tonight and wash them because it's officially TOO cold for running capris anymore! BRRRR.
