What a long month! January seems to be lasting forever (apparently I’m not the only one who feels that way). That’s not a bad thing though. It’s been a fun month, and I am 100% a-okay with time not flying by! But of course, I’m thinking ahead!
Here’s a few things I am looking forward to in February:
- A running date with Rachel!
- Teaching three fitness boxing classes, and one indoor cycling class.
- Valentine’s Day treats for fitness boxing class (yes, I favor them, ha).
- My parents maybe visiting to help with a house project, and take my classes!
- A massage!
- Anne and Terry visiting!
- Continuing my every day blogging streak?! Maybe?! (This post about what makes me blog more often is still true.)
- More bowling dates with Steven! We’ve been bowling more and I enjoy it. I wish we could find a league to participate in… that wasn’t a zillion weeks long. And was every other week. Ha.
- My work detail ending. That’s completely the opposite of what I’ve been saying, but after some things happened, I am ready for it to be done.
- Having another vegan donut?!
Notice what’s NOT on the list?! The Frosty Footrace! I’ll likely be there, but I just still feel so meh about it all. (Yes, I hold long grudges. Working on that. Maybe having a good race there will help!?!)
Wow, that’s a lot for a short month! And I agree, January is dragging on and on and on.
If you don’t do Frosty, are you guys all just going to spectate when I run it? That’s a lot of pressure 😉
I’m excited to move this month and really excited to visit Chicago (and actually get to see you guys this time)!!!!
Yeah, probably. I am thinking I will likely run it, just not excited about it.
Your move is next weekend, right?! Are you guys mostly re-packed up, now? I am glad we get to see you this time too (obvs)!
I get that. I’m just using Frosty as an excuse to come see you guys, so that’s exciting 🙂
I think we’re going to move over President’s Day, but we’re getting the keys next weekend and will start taking stuff over to the new place. Can’t wait!
I am glad you are and I apologize that I am so MEH about the race. I am NOT meh about seeing you both!!!!! Steven and I are both excited!
Cool! I am excited for you! Especially that you can unpack all your cooking stuff!
I agree with you on January’s length! Sounds like a lot of fun ahead – we used to bowl with friends every Friday night and it was so fun. But then I started running and having to wake up so early on Saturday meant cutting back on my Friday night activities, and eventually the group broke apart, but I still have great memories of hurling that ball down the lane!
Oh fun! But yeah, Friday night is NOT the best day for a league. Or most days, ha! Do you go every now and then, now?
No, we don’t go anymore. The guy who brought us all together died a few years ago and it’s not the same. 🙁
Aww man, I’m sorry 🙁
Oh no they ruined your work detail!! 😠 Guess it’ll make going back to your regular job easier but it still sucks. Oh a massage what is that….its been so long ha ha. Have you any other races planned for the next few months?
It will, so that is the silver lining!
Get one, girl!!!!!!!! I have been trying to go monthly 🙂
Hmm. I have a 5K on April 7 and a HM on May 5! That’s it so far! When is your ultra? I love your training pics on insta!
One of my coworkers is in a bowling league, and it always blows my mind when she talks about it! It’s quite the time commitment! I kind of always assumed they were just like one hour on Tuesdays for three months or something like that, but not at all!
Right?! We did one once, that was a summer league, and was “short” in that it was only 8 weeks? Or maybe it was 10?! Way too long for me to commit to something that is every week. Ha!
Sounds like a lot of things going on in February for a short month! I hope the race ends up going well and redeems itself 🙂
It is! It’s gonna fly!
Thanks, I hope so too. I hate that I am so bitter about it!
Aw, it makes me sad that your work detail has become a burden after the disappointing news, especially when it was so enjoyable to start. I’m glad it’s almost over now that you feel this way.
I think it’s so cool that you and Steven go bowling together! That’s such a fun thing to share (plus it’s relatively cheap and not, like, binge-drinking!). Are leagues only a certain amount of time? I imagined they were kind of like “forever” things, like running clubs that you join and quit when you feel like it (or move away from).
Do you have a massage scheduled, or do you just know that you’re going to get one in February?
It makes me so sad too! Now being on extra month is kind of infuriating.
It is cheap! We use coupons for $1.99 games. Ha! Leagues are just a certain amount of time, in weeks. But some feel like they last FOREVER. But I bet league teams are more like that -like “let’s always be on the same team!”
I do have it scheduled, for the Friday before the Frosty Footrace 5K. I am trying to go once a month!
