Ummm, you're saying what happened to day 4?
To make a very long story as short as possible; I spent the day in the hospital.
My youngest son dislocated his shoulder for the 2nd time in 3 months.
The first time he was hit by a car; he was a pedestrian!
The 2nd time; playing basketball.
Not a great outcome; he'll need surgery but not right away.
At least he can go to Italy for the semester to study....thank goodness!
Now Day 4 was to be Day 2 of training.
Didn't happen!
Not even a week into my training program and I'm failing.
Hate the word failing but that's how I feel.
So Day 5 arrives and it starts out with a HUGE problem in the office.
Christmas Eve Day and it's spent yelling at a vendor and placating a customer.
Isn't it always supose to be so quiet before a holiday?
Anyway I wasn't anticipating my work day to be so crazy.
I thought a I would work an hour or so and go for the run I missed.
Since I eat a good breakfast & thought I would be in the office for a short time; I didn't pack a lunch.
Well my hour or so turned into many hours.
Thank goodness my favorite vendor (not the one who caused me so much grief) sent tins of homemade cookies.
OMG they were amazing!
Yes you're right, I did mention earlier that I usually eat a healthy diet but my downfall is homemade cookies.
Pies, cakes, muffins...you can keep them!
Homemade cookies and I turn into a cookie monster!
So here I am in the office, stressed knowing my youngest son will need an operation, stressed from work and now eating too many cookies.
The day is going from bad to worse.
But once the bad vendor was yelled at enough, the customer was accepting of the situation and I ate too many cookies....
I went for my run!
I completed Day 2 of training.
It was my first cold weather run; 35 degrees.
It was tough but I did it!
Talk about an unusual day.
But it was a day that made me proud of myself.
