Yesterday and Today

So, housing came and flushed our a/c yesterday. While the service guys had our front door propped open, the painters decided to finish painting our front door...WITHOUT ASKING!!! They started it in December and have not touched it since! I asked the painter how long it needed to stay open because I had somewhere to be. He didn't speak English very well so I couldn't understand his answer. He got an attitude with me. An attitude I couldn't understand very well.

So, instead of getting my 4+ miles in yesterday, I was sitting at home watching paint dry! I was BEYOND pissed off. I am SO sick of living in base housing!!!! It is the first time we ever have, and I don't know that we will ever do it again!

Then, one of my friggen migraines hit me around 1pm. I couldn't take the medicine until about 2:30pm because I had to pick the boys up from school. The stuff makes me drowsy and out of it so I don't feel comfortable driving after I take it. The migraine didn't let up until about 8-9pm. By then I was wiped out from the medicine. I skipped my daily walk and crashed.

Today was better, however. I went to the gym to make up for yesterday. I did 4.5mi on the treamill. I did a 5k without walking at a pace a little faster than my usual "long run" pace. I didn't feel too bad considering I haven't done much running in a couple weeks. I may slow it down and aim for four again next week.

I came home, and decided to take Kermie (the Dog) on last night's walk. I ended up walking 1.5 miles. Soo....I ended up with 6mi before 10am. Not too bad. I will be doing my usual walk this evening as well to make it 7mi for the day.

Wednesday - 6 mi (4.5mi on treadmill... 34:00 5k, 1.5mi with dog)
1mi walk w/ dog
