Cranky Amanuensis

My day did not have an auspicious start. I woke up with cramps/period and just as I started my shower, the animal made a stinky deposit in the catbox, which is just outside the bathroom.  I could smell the poo throughout the shower. I hope things improve from here.  I have to take notes at a monthly meeting we have. This is the part of my job I like least…I did not sign up to be Cranky Amanuensis. 

Last night we did out slowest/faster/slow/fastest workout.  The miles were ?/12:12/12:40/10:40.  The “?” is because I had to pee urgently and R and E ran me to the bathrooms to see if we could find one that was open.  Thankfully, we did.   We were talking about how unmotivated we feel lately.  R and I are underwhelmed for the marathon.  She said last night, “we’ve been running for a long time…the novelty has worn off.”  I still want to do the marathon even though I don’t feel as persistent as I did 2 years ago when I was the under-est of underdogs. 

I’m in a mood.  I’ve eaten cream of wheat for dinner the past two nights. I ADORE cream of wheat. I could eat it forever and ever.  But I need to go back and stop the expansion of my belly so no more C-O-W for me this week. Sad!

    Cream of wheat with lots of butter and milk and a sprinkle of cinnamon = heaven.

    Love COW! But, I think even better is the smell of hot, fresh cat poo first thing in the morning!

    That’s why my cats “stinker” box is by the back door, in the mudd room, where stinky shoes and cat poo smell unite!

    Cinnamon COW…so yummy!

    Hang in there with the running! I wish I could say “It will get better”, but rather I’ll just say “It will be over soon!” :)
