Busy Bee

Yesterday I had a very nice 7 mile run with my coach. It was the perfect thing to end my busy day. I am not kidding about the busy part, LOL! Here is my day: I had a doctors appointment, then worked two jobs yesterday. While on my lunch I had my front right tire taken off to fix a rim that I accidently scratched while parking in my work parking lot on Friday of last week that took up my full hour. I also have to go back today to put the nicely fixed rim and tire put on my car on my lunch today. This means I will have two late lunches back to back. So after all that I had that beautifl run and went home... got comfy and ate dinner around 8pm. When I got home and started to heat up my Healthy Choice Cheese Pizza in the toaster oven I started feeling lightheaded from going to long w/o food. I started to drink more juice in the house to get my glucose level up... since I am occasionally hyphoglycemic per doctors blood tests. Although lately my test came up GOOD!

So while the dinner was cooking and I was drinking my juice, I noticed my banana's from the weekend where looking pretty ripe. SO a decision had to be made.
1) throw the banana's away
2) make banana bread today
3) wait and see for tomorrow on both options 1 or 2
I decided to go ahead and make the banana bread. I don't like the smell of banana's when they are REALLY ripe, so here I was... baking! I have a kitchenaid mixer so it was pretty easy and not to bad on the clean-up. The bread was out of the oven just in time for the house to cool off for when Jeremy came home so he was THRILLED to have homemade banana bread waiting for him when he came home. It was so good that we are not sharing with my work or his.

Usually we take a plate full of sliced bread to our jobs and let all enjoy it! This time its just for us! Not being selfish or anything... it just has been so long since I made any! It was missed!

A funny side note, I had to think on using the oven. I haven't used it in so long... I was losing touch with the concept, LOL! If you seen our lovely home you would understand on the reasons for not using our oven. Our place is 535 sf. and heats up very quickly whenever we use our oven... it is great news most of the time because I don't have to cook, LOL! Occasionally though a home cooked meal is wonderful!

My hubby has had a headcold all week! I am praying that it doesn't attack me, only time will tell! I have been getting extra rest this week and since he is not running in the evenings that means today is all up to me. I have been getting soreness in my knees on the last few runs but after I am running and I start to relax they feel better. I think it is the hills and my legs telling me off, LOL!

I am supposed to run 6 miles today but I do have tap class from 6-7 and dinner after that. So I will see if the gym calls to me. I usually run better with 2 days off before a long run and on Saturday the TNT group (including me) is running 14 miles! That is more than a half marathon! So I may take today off!
