Tuesday Morning Run and Interview

It has been an awesome day. Hubby had to stay home because of an emergency dental appointment and I got to run this morning. I have always been a morning person, so waiting until the afternoon to run makes me feel sluggish. So this morning, I ventured out right as the sun was rising. It felt awesome. I only wanted to run 3, but I did 3.65 in 32:35.

I came in and hustled the kids to eat their breakfast and get ready for school - I usually have a schedule, but I was running instead!!!!

Also, this afternoon, I had my first JOB interview (in person) since I became a stay-at-home mother (well, I did interview at the church, but the church just felt so much easier). It went great... and I got the job. The new After pic to the right (me in the red dress) is how I looked for the interview. I still have kept true to my Lenten pledge and haven't weighed myself, but I think it is going in the right direction.

We have had temps in the 60s and it feels like Spring is here!!!!!
