Frankie says Relax... Then get Sick

This weekend was pretty relaxing...finally.

I could have just used a meme with the saying
but the muscles make it so much nicer to look at :)

Friday, what I thought was my allergies were kickin up, so I decided to take a rest day. Have to admit it was kinda nice just relaxing and clearing out my DVR  (anyone else watching the Following OMG! talk about suspenseful it's so good) also watched the season finale of Biggest Loser so glad Danni won I loved her and damn her arms were amazballs, but bummed that Gina won the at home prize I was hoping Lisa would win she looked fantastic and turly did most of it at home.

Saturday rolled around and there was no soccer game. CareBear came over so the hubs could replace her brakes (have I mentioned how nice it is to have a guy who can fix things) and we were planning on going to the gym.  Well time got away and before we knew it it was 1pm.  Kids Club closes at 1pm on the weekend so we decided to bust out the Just Dance 4.  It was so much fun like a mini dance party at home and we sure worked up a sweat and kept it going for well over an hour. 


Sunday I started out with a 4mile run.  It felt really good to get out there in the early morning air.  Even though I wasn't feeling all that great (I think I have a slight cold and not the allergies I had thought).  I aimed for a nice easy run and turned out I had a pretty good pace 12:20 per mile and it still seemed easyish.  I think all the cross training and weight lifting and evil squats are helping with my running.

 When DQ woke up her cough seemed to be worse but she was still bouncing off the walls and it was such a nice day (75F +  the perks of living in So. Cal.)  I just couldn't keep her inside.  We decided to hit up the regional park and do some pony rides.  Turns out they were having an Easter Event so it was pretty crowded but we stayed anyway.

Such a happy girl with her horse.

We played some games, decorated cookies ( I didn't even have a bite) and just enjoyed the sunshine.

Sun, butterflies, and frosting, what could be better

After all was said and done Sunday night turned out to be pretty rough. DQ was up most of the night coughing, and when she wasn't I was. So not much was happening in the sleep department.  Monday I was able to get her into the Doctor"s and turns out my little peanut has a sinus infection and bronchitis...ugg again I win mother of the year...NOT! Poor thing my only excuse is she seemed fine except for the cough and she was still totally driving me to drink crazy.  So now she is on meds and all is well... and she is still driving me right to the wine bottle crazy.

Hopefully this will help her sleep, if not maybe I'll down
the bottle of Nyquil so someone sleeps, whatever works right?

Tissue Please?

Ugg go figure I'm sick.  I knew it was just a matter of time with all the new little germies milling around. I started to feel kinda ick on Tues. but I toughed it out and ran 3 miles anyway and went to Aqua on Wed. but Thursday was Back to School Night and I worked 12 hours and that was all she wrote... Ugg I'm doing so good on my running this set back sucks!  I just can't seem to get my self up to do anything not even eat so I guess it will all even out in the end.  I'm really wanted to get up this morning and at least try to get in a short 2 miler but my head and throat said hell no and to top it off it's still over a 100 degress here.  I hate, HATE, being sick in the heat :(   Ok enough of poor me, hope evryone else is killin it for me.
