This Week Is Going To Suck

Montage from my weekend....

Girls night out:

Bonneville Dam and Powerhouse tour:


Columbia River - really windy with whitecaps:

Looking down from the bridge at Multnomah Falls (see my foot?):

The majestic Multnomah Falls:

Looking down the gorge from the Washington side:


Enough of that.

Regarding the title of this post...That is probably not a good thing to say considering it is a holiday weekend and my parents are coming to visit. That part doesn't suck. Work sucks right now and my attitude toward it sucks too. I'm waking up in the middle of the night in cold sweats stressing out about work. In the morning I'm able to wrap my head around it but at night its not good. More bad news today about my projects. I can handle bad news but some good news would be good now and again. Maybe I just need to quit and become a full time homemaker. That would be nice.

Anyway, this week is a rest week for me so I only have 18 miles on my schedule. I did my strength and stability training (half-heartedly) tonight and no running. I have no running on Friday and Saturday either. My "long" run on Sunday is only 6 miles.

I have a track workout tomorrow that I'm looking fwd to - it is nice to feel some good old speed now and again.

Please cross your fingers for me that I can sleep this week and TCB at work and figure out how to cook this damn turkey.

Peace.

Are you turkey trotting on Thursday? Alisa said you might be there!

I'll definitely look for you - I don't think we've met yet, have we?
