forgive me??

Please don't be mad.....I have been going two weeks strong! Two weeks with no excuses and today it happened. Today I excused myself from not running...can I explain? Maybe you will let me off the hook, I promise you, I will try not to be dramtic lengthy!

*Last night*
After enjoying a short run and a cup of coffee with hubby, I settled down around 11, no sooner did my little brain go to la la land, Itty bitty let out a shrill...(this is not uncommon for her in the middle of the night, little weirdo) about a minute later she was really freaking out, so I got up, as soon as I opened the door the pungent smell of vomit hit me in the face!! Poor baby was freaking out because she through up all over her beloved baby! and was still going but was really upset about the baby!

I yell for handsome, he started the bath and I start cleaning up! Thoughts of what the heck is this from? are running through my brain, I was trying to remember what we had eaten and if she had anything that was particularly different. Nothing came to mind. Handsome finished her bath, I finished the bleaching of her contaminated items put fresh sheets on the crib.....she wasn't having it! She was begging to go downstairs! Ok I thought it is only midnight...I will let her settle and then we will get back in bed.....to make a very long story short, we never made it back to bed! 7 changes of clothes later it was finally dawn...I was never so happy to see sunshine because then I could convince my body that it did not actually need to sleep! Poor kiddo threw up pretty much every hour from 11p.m. until 4 a.m and then a lull until 6 a.m.!

Have you forgiven me yet?

Ok well....after dealing with a tantrum from the three year old, because I simply did not have the man-power to get her to her beloved dance class, I schedule Itty bitty a doctors appointment, got everyone dressed, jumped out of the shower twice to catch some vomit in a trash can, got everyone in the car! Drop little miss at dance class, luckily I have dear friends who are wonderful to both my kids and I! (Thank you again K) ran to the doc appointment, got out just in time to pick up little miss at dance!

Hit the grocery store, we only stopped once while there to catch throw up

picked up lunch for the big one (little one is not allowed solids)caught puke in the parking lot!

made it home, begged itty bitty to eat a Popsicle, and feed little miss.

Itty bitty throws up once more and falls asleep, I finally convince her to get in her crib I really wanted to lay down, little miss had fallen asleep too!!

instead I sanitized my entire house, stripped all beds and got the laundry going, in hopes of keeping the rest of the house healthy...after that I dumped all contaminated trash cans, mopped floors, spot cleaned rugs and continued the puke laundry!

at this point running was looking grim, so I threw a shred in there really quick so I at least got some workout in! Holy smokes on level three Jillian kicked my tired ass!

I vacuumed, made dinner, passed itty bitty off to handsome (who was also up all night and worked all day) and took little miss to soccer...I was not so thrilled to be at soccer (sorry for my grumpiness) rush home, get ready for school tomorrow, shower kids,and myself put little girls to bed, go lay down and well wouldn't you know, now I cannot fall asleep! What the heck maybe there were drugs in my Water today or maybe it was the 5 cups of coffee I drank today, (I am a once a day kinda chick, with caffeine!) I feel completely wiped even my voice is horse, but I can't doze off.....and poor handsome just got called to work :(

what does not kill thou, will only make us drink more coffee or something like that!

So now can you forgive me? I just did not think I had four miles in me tonight, I still ate well all day, and I did shred! I will make them up this weekend I promise!

See I am not dramatic......right? I know, I am, I have a sick kid we have all been there, I just choose to justify my reasoning to you! I admire all you super humans out there, who run even on bad days!

After being awake for 36 hours, maybe I will go count sheep to fall asleep!

Happy Cinco de mayo everyone!

still wiping noses

ohhhh my I have soooo much to post about!! But things are crazy here right now, I still have sick little kids who it seems each night of sleep gets worse instead of better, we still have family in town which has been great to have extra hands and help.....and I still am sleep deprived so I will make this short and catch up again soon I promise!

I had a beautiful Easter Sunday, I got to go for a run with my Dad and my husband, I was nervous to say the least. These two men are the most in shape guys I have ever known and I thought I would be soooo slow!

I did great we finished 2.5 in 24.01 which was slightly more than a comfortable pace, but lately I have been thinking I need to push harder anyway, and I won't mention that my Dad was behind me the whole time and when I would feel him gaining on me I would speed up, I never let him by....I also will not mention that the only reason this was possible was because he is just getting back to working out after having hip surgery 10 weeks ago....all of these are minor details....I was in front of him and I am proud of that...

Needless to say we got home hid Easter eggs and watched my precious albeit sick babies hunt eggs and be in complete candy heaven!

I have little missy now going for Jogs around the house with my hydration belt! SO cute...I know I have not even had the chance to tell you my awesome Mama bought me a hydration belt because she is Well awesome and it is pink I loooovvvee it....I will tell you more about that later!!

I totally have to go to bed..Itty bitty sleeps until about 3a.m. and then the coughing and sneezing get the best of her and she needs her Mommy and sometimes you just need your mommy and I won't complain because there will be a day when she doesn't need me (or won't admit she does) and I will miss that....so I will go sleep now so I can be a nice Mom at 3am...I hope everyone had a great Easter and has a great week!

Buried

First Welcome all you new bloggy peeps! I am glad you are here! Don't be a creeper and lurk around, say hi! I love new blog friends!

I am buried...not in a pile of snow, not under my own weight but under 5,987,576,890,087 tissues!! My nose is raw, my ears are popping and I am freaking out that I can't run...which is kinda funny when I think about it!

So today I did something I rarely do and I sucked it up and went to see the Doctor!! Now I usually ride out cold for quite sometime and often act stubborn and suffer but dude, seriously I have not run since last week and I can't stand it!! So I basically begged the doc to help me with my stuffiness, she told me I had severe sinus infection and a double ear infection!...as a quick side note I am basically allergic to any fabulous drug there is available and have to settle for the few that won't kill me, but are not as effective!

So alas, I am downing a z-pack,mucinex-dm,sudaffed and advil around a very specific clock! When little miss (my 3 year old) told me today that I looked like I had lost my mind, I pretty much had nothing to say except to agree with her! Anyhow I have completely forgotten that February is over and need a quick recap!

I ran 27 miles this month!! Holy smokes! I pretty much started blogging the last day of January and I got hooked so fast, so February was my first full month of blogging and it totally rocked! I also had a big cross over this month! I went from hating to run and just doing it because I wanted to loose some weight, to completely loving it! I am trying to chase down all you speed demons out there! I actually crave running now, and I also let go of the weight obsession I was on! and you know what the weight is going away on it's own..yeaahh!

So I ran more than my projected 25 miles and I lost a jean size...I would say successful month!! For March I would like to hit 35 miles and do well in the two races, I have coming up for this month!! The first and second 5k's of my life!

As for my blog I am just going to keep throwing out my random thoughts while running, oh and you people really like free stuff, which I can totally appreciate so don't miss myGiveaway.

While I really love all you bloggy people out there, I must go to bed, a good night sleep may do wonders for my illness and the sooner that is gone the better!! I am sorry if I have not made it around to comment on your blog yet, I will blame it on my drug induced coma and hope that I can get around to you soon!
