Time has not been in my favor these days. During the summer days, there is always something that needs to get done. I think perhaps, I need to be more conscious about setting aside time for running. Or taking the time. However it should be worded. Recap of the past week and a few days.

Week VII - Day 7 - 216
Flew home. I must have been kinda pooped because I overslept and missed my check in time by like a half an hour. Due to the fact that it was travel within Alaska on PenAir this wasn't an issue and I was able to check in, sit on my tushy in the terminal, and get on the plane just fine. I got home, unpacked a box and got to work. I cut the grass and then started in on getting the top to side poles put up on the fishrack. I got 5 of 'em on before Mom and I were hungry. Which leaves 3 more to go. After dinner I finished unpacking and put laundry away and fixed the sheets and was tuckered out. I decided to Ocarina of Time it up instead of running. Silly panda. But really. I feel as though I accomplished a lot.
And as a personal victory, for the first time in a good bit, I was conscious of the quantities of food that I was inhaling while I was in Anchorage. And I did not put on all the poundage back on. I was exceptionally proud of myself.
Week VII - Day 6
Semi-busy day. Slept in after staying up fairly late. Bought and shipped another 200 or so pounds of stuffafa. Walked and shopped with Miss Chelsea Lorraine. Panda napped and then had a fantastic evening with a gentleman friend.
Week VII - Day 5 - 216
Whoa busy. But good. Fabulously good. Another early day. I might just switch my schedule to 8 am. I'm not sure how I voluntarily feel about giving up my 9 am wake up though. Got to work and got my head right into the game and finished my grant with like 4 hours to spare. Yeah buddy. I felt inordinately proud of myself. Hustled my hiney home to eat me some lunchness, pack and got on the plane to Anchorage. Momma got an order for 26 half sheet cakes amidst the 3 wedding cakes she's busting out this summer so I needed to go on a supply run and will be the filler and boxer for this endeavor. Soon as I landed, I was off running around. Pulled everything from Costco and did one Freddies run before packing and dropping it all off at Evret's. No time, no time. But I had time enough to go out to dinner with my big seester Shauntel. Crush is heavenly. HEAVENLY.

Week VII - Day 4 - 217
After work I had an hour to get my ass fed and geared up to go set net. I was like 5 minutes late. Slacker! Went for a boat ride in the ocean with Joe, Ashley and Greg. I was in heaven. We set two nets, hung out a little but no luck, and then cruised back. On the way back I saw a little seal head pop out of the water and then swim away. :) Home again, home again. Turned my compost and worked on the grant. Blink of an eye = bedtime. No run. :(
Week VII - Day 3 - 217
Ran today. I just felt it. I was a little faster than my normal time. It was amazing. Even though it was a short one.
Warm up - walk to yield sign
Run - 2.4 miles
Cool down - walk home
Week VII - Day 2 - 218
Today was a perfect running day. It was breezy and a little over cast. Not too warm and bug free! Although bugs are a little earthly motivation to keep your ass moving. Mom offered to come meet me at the end of the 3.3 run to the second stop sign and I happily accepted her offer for a change of scenery. After my run I picked a bouquet of bluebells for the Momma.
Warm up - walk to yield sign
Run 3.3 miles to second stop sign
Cool down - walk to beach and back
Week VII - Day 1 - 218
Happy Monday. No running. Or at least I didn't run. I think I was stupid tired cause I woke up at 6:30 for job related responsibilities. Let's just say this girl is not a morning person.
Week VI - Day seven - 220
This is getting pretty hazy. Remember back this far. I don't think I wanted to walk but I made myself take a little half an hour walk just around town. And it felt good.
Week VI - Day six - 220
Didn't run today because I ran on Friday. I tell ya. This whole week was one day off. Today was a rather successful garage sale and picnic however. I ended up burnt. :)
Week VI - Day five - 220
Run panda run! I ran today. I don't remember what route I did though. I guess I need to be more diligent in my updates. It's tough when you're busy though. And I don't think it was an incredibly long run. Hm... Only my body will know. Not my brain.
