quick recap

Life's been a blur, but I think I'm back at it.  actually, I like this video better--I appreciate the solid narrative of the former although it was kind of overdone in the wrong fashion, but I am rather fond of vintage TV performances, particularly foreign ones (tragedy struck when the clip of OFF/Time Operator was removed, but it's back too!)  Anyhow, it's a cover (props, ABBA!)

Anyhow, anyhowm quick recap--my husband's back, yay!  PHEW!

....and I'm doing small runs (15-20 min tempo runs, 30-40-etc min easier runs) fairly regularly (~4/week), but perhaps the real success story is x-training.  Pushups and situps approx 3 times a week (50 of each usually), some shoulder exercises and the yes-no machine 1-2 times a week, plus I've returned to the garage!  cleans and squats and deadlifts.  I'm really happy with this considering the circs.   Admittedly, the past week or so has been sort of dodgy (my husband's back, yay!) but I think I've struck a good balance.  Truth is, I'm pretty done with running here, but we've just a few months left!  I can tough it out, surely.

We'll see how this week goes

Sun: 35 min tough hilly run, pushups and situps
Mon: tempo run (25 min total), yes-no machine (lol)
Tues: easy 40 min run (oops, forgot shoulder exercises)

Meanwhile: work start times:
Mon: 1430
Tues: 1430
Wed: 700
Thurs: 600
Fri: probably 1430, but a slim chance I can switch to 600, which would be even better, because:
Sat: 900

tomorrow might hurt!  good night!
