in 10 minutes!
So my awesome 5am-11pm plan didn’t work out so well. Shocking right? Turns out I’m not 21 anymore. Damn.
In fact I think the not enough sleeping got me pretty sick as I was out for the count on Tuesday this week. But then feeling a lot better yesterday. I don’t know. I think I can live with 6 hours of sleep but I think the problem is that I’m all ok I’m going to do things until 11pm. THEN go to bed. Then I’m usually pretty awake, so reading and some movie watching and and I’m not asleep until midnight. Then there is the small problem that Lucy is reverting back to the I wake up and can’t soothe myself in the middle of the night so we are up frequently (ok ok, I know I should let her cry and I would except a new guy moved in upstairs and I don’t want his first few nights to be all, “really….I moved above a screaming baby”). Then all of a sudden it’s 5am, 5:09, 5:18 as me and the alarm play let’s see who can annoy who more. So maybe I’ll try and get back on it next week after we go through some more cry it outs this weekend.
On the running front things are going great. Dad and I did a great 5 miler on Sunday in 55 minutes. We took the train downtown and ran back from there….oh hell I already talked about that. Ok moving on to yesterday. Dad and I did some speed work yesterday which went really well. We did 6 400m(ish) repeats in: 2:06, 2:19, 2:14, 2:12, 2:08, 1:55 which is awesome. I think these are still a bit too fast, but shit, everyone likes to run fast so I say go for it as we are still in preparation for training mode.
Work is work. Big meetings about another redesign…hopefully this one will include the developers a little more than the last few times they have done this. We’ll see. There are good intentions there, let’s see if they stick to them.
What else…oh knitting. going good. I’m working on the Anne Hanson honey bee baby blanket which is looooong. Right now i have somewhere of 600 stitches on there, and another 32 rows to go. From there there is the bind off that doesn’t look easy at all. But I’ll be happy to be onto a new part of the pattern. I’m pretty sure I’m knitting it way way too tight…but nothing I can do about that now.
OK, that’s about it from the exciting land of LeahC. It’s Thursday which is one more than Wednesday and only one less than Friday.
Yeah coach! Thanks for making me run those times.
Gotta take care of yourself Leah!
Just like when you’re on the airplane – put your airbag on first, then put one on your unconscious neighbor. 
I miss you guys!
