allergies SUCK!!!! And tmi but they suck way more when you are working 48 hours in 4 days and its that horrible time of the month. YUCK!!!!! I have nasty thick yellow stuff pouring out of my nose and running down my throat. Gross. Im so over it!
I havent been able to work out between not being able to breath and the meds making me feel spacey. This stresses me out because I have missed two important runs - one being a 12 miler! So this week will be a running week.
On a positive side, not being able to smell or taste has really helped on the wanting to binge thing and I have stayed within my calories ALL week! I lost 4.5 lbs this wee!
I know I said I wasnt going to weigh myself in May but I havent given Rach the scale yet and it taunts me.

allergies are kicking my ass
Im assuming its just allergies - Im not much of an allergy person but I dont have a fever and its staying within my head/sinuses area so Im saying allergies.
Regardless I feel like CRAP. I have a post nasal drip that is making my throat raw. I have NO voice which sucks for someone who talks A LOT. I started claritin with a decongestant. I feel better but blah - I hate that medication feeling. And I still sound like crap and have no voice.
Today is my only day off - I work all weekend. I had a 6 mile run planned for Thur that didnt happen because I couldnt breath and was a coughing mess. I had a 12 mile run on the books for today. I had a babysitter booked. Part of me almost went out still this morning for that run - I even did a bit of research to see what the running experts say about running with a head cold. But I have changed my mind.
I just took baby girl to the sitters. Weird how I dont feel guilty putting her there to get my run done but feel horrible about putting her there for me to try to feel better and take some me time to go back to bed. Expecially because she was in SUCH a good mood this morning.
So Im about to go back to bed. Goal to wake up in a few hours and clean up my house before getting her back. If I feel "ok" then I might try to get that 6 miler in this evening with the plan for 12 on monday. I need to get that 12 done so that mentally I can progress to the half coming up.

tid bits
1. Not a huge amount to say - nothing exciting anyways. I was LAZY yesterday but I ate well within my calories. I didnt binge :)
2. I havent weighed myself in two days :) woohoo... need to still give my scale to Rach though.
3. Baby girl is getting into such a fun age ... she is almost 5 months and she is awesome!
4. The 5 year old left for school 45 min ago yet Im still sitting here watching Johny Test... something is just not right with that!
5. I need to revamp my workout schedule a bit this week. While I love when hubby is on days and we eat dinner together every night that Im off... my workout schedule "works" so much better when he is on evenings :)
My workout plans
Today - insanity once Bre goes down for morning nap, 60 min treadmill workout once she goes down for her long nap.
Wednesday - insanity in the am, treadmill workout after work
Thur - insanity in the am
Fri - 12 mile long run (already set up babysitter)
Sat - rest or spin
peace out for now! Time to quit being lazy... have about 8 loads of laundry on my agenda for today.
