Fun Facts Friday - Random Realizations

I don't really have any news to report. I do go see a hematologist next week. Hopefully we can figure out the cause of the clot. Basically more waiting.

Let's just jump right into Fun Facts Friday. I had thought about doing a running survey that many of you guys have been doing. I may do that one later. But working from home and being pretty much home day and night for 2 weeks now, I've had plenty of time to have lots of absolutely random thoughts.

Some of the fun facts are observations, some completely random with no rhyme or reason. Just for fun ;-)

  • I don't have as many pairs of yoga pants as I thought.
  • I've gotten so lazy that I didn't even bother to do hair or makeup for doctor's visit.
  • It's been a week since I've done my hair and it's kind of nice.
  • It's been a week since I've put on "real" clothes.
  • My dogs behave only if I work from the living room. In the kitchen they act like bickering 4-year olds. No, they won't go to living room without me.
 
  • I ate an entire spaghetti squash myself this week, having it for lunch each day topped with peas, tofu, tomatoes, and spicy hummnut (hummus + nutritional yeast).

  • If I didn't eat the spaghetti squash, it was a sweet potato with half a jar of jalapenos and Daiya cheese.

  • I've grown to utterly dislike Paula Deen's laugh/cackle.

  • While I love Giada, she likes her food way too much. No one makes that many noises when they taste their food. MMMM, ooohhh, mmmm, squeal....it's SO good. 

  • Not running, lifting, kickboxing daily means half the laundry. I knew I did a lot of laundry but this was an eye-opener.
  • I did not do holiday cards this year and feel kind of bad about it each time I get one in the mail. But I've been noticing most cards are family pictures. I kind of miss seeing real cards with real signatures.
 Your turn. What's one random thing from this week?

I Run to Feel Alive

Today is National Running Day . Guess what I did this morning? Cycling? Nope. Lifting? Nope. I bet you thought kickboxing right? Nope. Running? But of course! I actually sort of planned my running days this week just so I could participate this year. I didn't get to run last year and didn't even know about it the year before. But running has become such an integral part of my life and who I am, that I couldn't miss this year. Basically, I run to feel alive . It calms me, it helps me work through life, it's often a reason to get out of bed. No matter how tough a run is, it makes you feel ... period. My plan was to get in 5 miles (got in 5.5 actually). It was about 10 degrees warmer this morning and definitely more humid. That always makes for a tougher run. We decided to take a different route today. Well, it was really only a few streets over different, but still. The point is we took a different street. Sometimes that's good, sometimes not. I did realize th...

KIND Bar Review + Apple Raisin Wheat Berry Salad

Weights & Step As much as I wanted to run today, I knew there was no getting up early enough to do so. Monday's are hard enough without getting up at 5 am to run. Yawn ... So, today I did my weights at lunch then cardio after work. Weights were pull muscles (biceps and back). I did 3 sets of 8 reps of the following: Biceps : Alternating curls Cross-body curls Zottoman curls Back: Single-arm horizontal row Underhand DB rows Double arm rows It was a pretty good workout. I felt pretty strong today for some reason. Love it when that happens. My legs were pretty sore from yesterday's workout, so I opted for a lower intensity cardio: Cathe's Low Impact Circuit - Cardio Only Premix plus abs. It was a great workout and helped to loosen up my legs. KIND Review I have been very remiss with my review of the KIND bars that I won from Jill @ My So Called Health LIfe . I won the Nut Delight. I don't know why, but I expected it to be a tad softer...
