Fitness Friday 8/26/16 Edition

What a week! The craziness of life is beginning. L started 6th grade this week. She is enjoying middle school so far. I have been staying home for the past few days to help her get going.

Friday: Mandy and I ran a nice pace in her neighborhood


Saturday: I had my first bootcamp (which I loved!!) and then ran my fastest mile in more than 3 months! The weather was absolutely gorgeous!


Sunday: I had 10 miles on schedule. The weather was fantastic and I did well. I was able to run this in under 2 hours! A good accomplishment for me!


Monday: one solo mile for recovery


Tuesday: Mandy and I ran a few miles before I had to get home to get L up for her first day of school


Wednesday: one mile after getting L off to school


Thursday: I bypassed the lightening storm this morning. My legs are still sore so I just ran a mile

L's New Room

At the beginning of August, Jeff and I tackled the project of her bedroom and bathroom. Today, I'll recap the bedroom.

So it used to look like this:


She wanted teal, blue and purple. All bold and gorgeous colors


The finished product! We moved her bed and cleared out all the shelves and organized it all


I redid her whiteboard


Her vanity without the mirror. She loves it! (And I love it because her makeup stays out of the bathroom!)


I don't think her closet has ever been this clean!


Her desk area.


We got it done by the time she came back from Colorado. She was thrilled! And so were we!! I'm so glad to have accomplished this project!

Weekly Chase: Week 32

This weekend was fun!  We finished L's room and bathroom and they look awesome.  Saturday, I didn't do much cleaning/productive wise.  We were supposed to run a 10K but it was pouring and lightening so we opted to go have breakfast.  I got home, turned on the Olympics and watched it for several hours.  I can't tell you the last time I sat and watched TV.  We went to watch Suicide Squad on Saturday afternoon.  It was really good!!  We went to a local Mexican place called District Tacqurito.  It was super yummy!

Sunday, after sleeping in (it was thunderstorming again), running a mile and eating breakfast, I got down to tackle the house.  The bathrooms are cleaned, the two weeks of laundry has been put away, and the floors are clean!! Jeff finished up L's bathroom today.  It looks so cool!
