"Case of the Mondays"



Well.....It's Monday......

Is summer here yet?

We've been moving towards summer for several weeks now and I honestly just feel a little wiped out.

Today is Monday and although this isn't my official start of the week, you see I work Sunday through Thursdays. I feel that I've got a "case of the Mondays" (Office Space) and my work day hasn't even started yet.

Do you ever feel like you've got a "case of the Mondays"? Do you ever get tired this time of year with EVERYTHING going on? I feel like almost every day I have to be in 2-3 different places at the same time!

Well.....Hopefully this will help a little this morning.

"But there's one thing I remember, and remembering I keep a grip on hope: God's loyal love couldn't have run out, his merciful love couldn't have dried up. They're created new every morning. How great your faithfulness! I'm sticking with God (I say it over and over). He's all I've got left." -Lamentations 3:21b-24 (MSG)

Because we're created new every morning, we get the privilege to reshape the way we attack the day. Live today with hope and remember whose you are. You were created by God and for God. (John 1:1-3)

Make your "case of the Mondays" be filled with Hope and Love, and go after today! You'll only have this day to once! Live it to the fullest!

Preparation...

Image
This week has been seemed to go by a little slower then the others... Maybe it's because it's been raining on and off all week or because it's the summer and that's just how it is. I haven't had a whole lot to do at work and for the most part my house has stayed clean. The normal things I do every week are done, so now what do I do? Prepare...but prepare for what? If you have set your goals and are pursuing them, you can start there and begin to prepare to accomplish those things. One of my GOALS for this year is to run in a Spartan Race , so on Fathers Day I "bit the bullet" and  signed up. I was planning on signing up for the sprint race (4-6 miles), however the coupon I had only covered the full race (8-10 miles). These races aren't cheap so I figured why not go for it and just prepare a little harder. Good thing it isn't until October 21st and I have a good bit of time to prepare ! What are you preparing for? If you have a goal ...

Training...

The Peachtree Road Race is tomorrow... Ask me if I'm ready...YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT!!! Here's why... I've been training for this 10k since the beginning of the year. I've really been training for longer then that. I put together a training schedule at the beginning of the year and even though my 10k was supposed to be on July 1st, I believe the Peachtree will be sufficient. 10k equals 6.2 miles and in the middle of the summer it will be a little tough. I am currently running nearly 3 miles a day and a few weeks ago ran two 10k's in one week. I kept them both in less than an hour and hope to do the same tomorrow if all goes well. Even though I've been training for the past 6 months, I'm still a little nervous. I don't know exactly what to expect. Last Thanksgiving my family (and Awesome Texas Family) ran/walked the Dallas Turkey Trot which was just a 5k. It was the largest race I have ever been a part of with around 25,000 participants. The ...

Stuck...

Have you ever been stuck? This morning it happened to me! I took the past two days off from running and blogging, simply because I had a few late nights that led to later wake-up times. I wasn't able to run or blog those mornings because of these all day events. These are my excuses, which are straight up baloney. I could have run in the afternoons and honestly blogged anytime during the day. I'm not sure when I lost that motivation, but it happened. Last night I went to be super early in hopes for a great re-start to an early morning run and blog. Then it happened...I got stuck. I got stuck inside my house because it was raining uncontrollably outside! Ahhhhhh!!!! I just wanted to go run to get back in rhythm with my week to week schedule and I couldn't. The rain wasn't the only obstacle, it was also full blown thunderstorm out. I sat on the couch defeated, wondering if I should go back to bed or figure this thing out. After a few minutes of contemplating...
