To run or not to run?

The next round of Elk Grove 5K fun runs starts real soon. Race #1 is already on Saturday, Jan. 27th! The thing is, I am not sure if I want to do it. It is so cold outside and I have not been running since I've been sick. You know what this sounds like though? A bunch of excuses. I need to just get out there no matter how lazy or tired I am and just run like the cute little picture above says. There is a long weekend ahead (yay for the MLK holiday on Monday!). No excuses for me to get at least two good runs in this weekend. Right? Right.

(eek).

Yummy food and a walk

No wonder it's called The Habit. Once you start, the habit has begun! Yummy teriyaki burger (for me), double char burger (for the hubs), fries, and (not pictured) onion rings! And of course, with my favorite kind of ranch, the creamy, but not too thick and bottle-tasting, type. 

Sometime last week we went to Panera Bread. I think the hubs thinks I'm weird for always trying to take pictures of my food now. Chicken caesar salad, broccoli cheddar cheese soup, and a panini. YUM!

Today, we went for a walk! I am finally feeling a lot better and I wanted to just go for a walk around our neighborhood. We walked for 24 minutes and covered roughly 1.5 miles. It was pretty cold outside and we listened to the radio via the hubs' phone while we walked. :) 

Recovering from a cold

I was feeling under the weather so I stayed home from work on Friday. Tried sleeping, but after a while my head began to hurt from too much sleep. I turned on the TV and finished the movie Tangled. That movie is really cute and I got a little teary-eyed. Then I saw that You've Got Mail was on, so I had to watch that.

Then I called my sister and suggested she keep me company and we watched a few episodes of the greatest TV show on earth... Vampire Diaries!!!

The weekend has been difficult to get through, but somehow I reached the end. Had a great time at our good friends' Xmas party last night. Tons of food, a white elephant gift exchange, and the most funniest version of Guesstures ever! Great times, MJCC. Great times.

I have had trouble figuring out what I want to eat today. After we went to church today, I decided this is what I wanted:

Subway sandwich, plus two kettle corn cookies from Trader Joe's. At last my tummy is happy :) I'm so sad I haven't worked out in over a week. But kudos to the hubs for running two miles today. He is doing really well running more and getting more active in general. I will join him as soon as I am fully recovered.
