How I Got Rebellious

Today I did something I have not done since I was a teenager (okay, maybe I did it on my honeymoon). No, I did not lose my virginity. I slept in. Until 10:13 a.m.

It was nice. No, it was amazing.

I kind of felt like I was breaking some kind of rule by staying in bed. Surely there was something productive I had to do. Certainly I needed to be running or biking or training for something. I am sure there was a skid mark that needed to be scrubbed out of the toilet or some pancakes I needed to make for my kids’ friends who spent the night.

I didn’t care. Every damn day I get up early. I love my bed. I love sleep. I indulged.

Not like the world was going to end because I slept four hours longer than I usually do. I also got rebellious with some other things this week. Confession time:

1. Heidi pooped twice on a walk. She knows there is a rule where she can only poop once because I only bring one bag. She broke the rule and I had to leave a steamy pile.

2.  Emma, my 13 year old,  is a vegetarian now. I’ve talked about this before. Last night we had some egg rolls and I told her they were veggie when they were actually veggie chicken. I hope she doesn’t read my blog (in my defense, I couldn’t even find the chicken in them).

3. Every run is hard for me.

4. I blamed some farts on Heidi when we had company.

5. I ran 8 miles in brand new shoes I had never worn before. Judge me all you want. I know that is not advisable but they were shouting my name and they were so damn pretty and they reminded me of grape jam. So I did it (and check it out! I found these at DSW for $49 and free shipping!)

6. I hid in the freezer section when I saw someone I knew in the grocery store because I didn’t feel like talking.

7. I bought really expensive sunglasses (something I never do because I just break them and I can never justify the price). I wore them for a few runs and I returned them. I have also returned used sheets and coffee makers, bathing suits, even spoiled clementines.  

8. My son turns 17 tomorrow. I never thought I would have a child that old. The teenage years are so much harder than I ever expected. Give me potty training and 2 year old tantrums any day over the shit that teens do.

Your turn. Tell me one way you broke the rules this week, or a confession.

    2. An amazing testimony on a spell caster who brought my husband back to me, I was rejected by my husband after four (4) years of marriage just because another woman and so he left me and the kids to suffer severe emotional pains. He moved in with the woman and forgot all the love and happiness that we once shared.My husband changed his attitude and thoughts against me automatically and he never wanted to see me around him anymore nor even talk to me again, so i contacted Dr OSUSU who helped me solve all my martial problems i had with my husband and he told me how another woman bewitched my beloved Greg. I wanna tell you that you need not to worry because i have a good news for those out there that are faced with similar situation because there is always a hope and a solution to all problem. There is a great spell caster called Dr Osusu who can really solve all your problems. Getting my lover back is what i can't imagine but when I was losing Greg, I needed help and somewhere to turn badly but a friend of mine told me about this spell caster who also helped her on the internet. I thought it won't work but i just tried to give this man a chance and i ordered a LOVE SPELL. Two days later, my phone rang and behold it was GREG was his old self again and wanted to come back to me! Not only come back, This is truly miraculous and the spell caster opened him up to know how much I love and needs him. This Spell Casting isn’t brainwashing, but he opened up his eyes to know how much love we have to share together. I recommend anyone who is in my old situation to try him because he will help you and make things be the way it ought to be. If you have such problem similar to this, please contact him on his email: greatosususpelltemple@gmail.com Or Call +2347064934941 thank you Dr OSUSU in fact you are miraculous and may your gods ever reward you for your good deeds.

  2. I took pictures of people's butts in spandex as they came through the finishing chute of my husband's first half Ironman yesterday purely because they reminded me of rorschach ink blots and the Batman symbol. Had to entertain myself somehow as I waited for him to finish!

  4. My daughter and I both got sick after the Mission: Space ride (an all-too-realistic flight simulator) at Epcot this week, and left a little present in the beautifully manicured bushes outside the ride pavilion. In hindsight we really probably should have notified an attendant or something, but instead we just kind of buried the mess in woodchips and fled the scene. I'm hoping we didn't spark a Disney Ebola scare.

    Are those Pure Cadences? I've been running in mine for over a month now and didn't really break them in either...They've been awesome so far and I do feel like they are helping my form quite a bit. Enjoy!

  8. My sister told me that 16-17 is the new terrible twos. Can we talk privately? Because my 17 year old is giving me more trouble than I ever imagined. I've turned into the cliche mom..."your grounded" "what are you going to amount to" "because I said so" "because it's my house and I pay the bills"...

    The only thing the saves me...keeps me sane...is RUNNING!

  9. After months of research and a considerable amount of agonizing over the price we had to pay, we just got our new Sleep Number i10 delivered and set up on Wednesday. So far, so good ... it makes it easier than ever to sleep in! Not that I've ever had a problem sleeping in! After just four nights, we're still experimenting with our sleep numbers. I hate firm beds, so I'm thinking I'll settle into something around 35. What's your sleep number? Do you like your bed more, less, or about the same as when you first got it?

  12. OUCH! The chicken in the eggs rolls is messed up. As a long time veggie, I'd be so pissed. I hope she doesn't read your blog either :)

    1. I agree. As a veggie my mother doesn't "get me" either but that would cause some serious issues if I ever found out she pulled that on me.

  13. I took an entire week off of training, because I was sick. The first part of the week, I really was sick, but the rest of the week I was just being lazy, even though I didn't feel that great. It was nice to be up and early again today to run :)

  14. I so feel you about the teen. Mine is 16 going on 25 and with major attitude. Dealing with the twos and threes seemed so hard at the time, but that was nothing compared to now. I feel like I am learning to parent all over again!! I keep repeating to myself "as long as he is friendly and respectful to all the other adults in his life..." and I keep hearing from them what a nice kid he is....so that makes me feel like less of an utter failure as a person.

    RE: rule breaking....usually I'm a complete rule follower, but here's a biggie......I wore a race shirt BEFORE a race. I KNOW, the earth is about to come off its axis. I picked up my bib and race hoodie on Friday for a race that was yesterday (Sunday). Saturday, I needed a hoodie, but not a heavy one....the race hoodie was t-shirt weight and was just what I needed....so I wore it. I don't think anyone saw me, so it doesn't count.

  15. Confession: I ignore people all the time at the gym. I listen to pod casts on my headphones so I can totally hear if someone is talking to me. I just pretend it is really loud music and don't even look at them.

  19. One time, my friend and I went to a bar after our run for drinks. We immediately left because we saw a friend there with her husband, and we weren't in the mood for their weird couple dynamic. I regret nothing.

    I am a multiple pooper, but it's not the same thing at all.

  20. How to get back your ex husband, wife, girlfriend, or boyfriend,

    Hello to every one out here, am here to share the unexpected miracle that happened to me three days ago, My name is Jeffrey Dowling,i live in Texas,USA.and I`m happily married to a lovely and caring wife,with two kids A very big problem occurred in my family seven months ago,between me and my wife so terrible that she took the case to court for a divorce she said that she never wanted to stay with me again,and that she did not love me anymore So she packed out of my house and made me and my children passed through severe pain. I tried all my possible means to get her back,after much begging,but all to no avail and she confirmed it that she has made her decision,and she never wanted to see me again. So on one evening,as i was coming back from work,i met an old friend of mine who asked of my wife So i explained every thing to her,so she told me that the only way i can get my wife back,is to visit a spell caster,because it has really worked for her too So i never believed in spell,but i had no other choice,than to follow her advice. Then she gave me the email address of the spell caster whom she visited.(bravespellcaster@gmail.com}, So the next morning,i sent a mail to the address she gave to me,and the spell caster assured me that i will get my wife back the next day what an amazing statement!! I never believed,so he spoke with me,and told me everything that i need to do. Then the next morning, So surprisingly, my wife who did not call me for the past seven {7}months,gave me a call to inform me that she was coming back So Amazing!! So that was how she came back that same day,with lots of love and joy,and she apologized for her mistake,and for the pain she caused me and my children. Then from that day,our relationship was now stronger than how it were before,by the help of a spell caster . So, was now stronger than how it were before,by the help of a spell caster . So, i will advice you out there to kindly visit the same Website: http://enchantedscents.tripod.com/lovespell/,if you are in any condition like this,or you have any problem related to “bringing your ex back.

  22. My name is yurich jerry am from USA. i want to use this opportunity to thank my great doctor who really made my life a pleasurable one today. This great man DR.Ogboni brought my husband back to me, i had three lovely kids for my husband, about four years ago i and my husband has been into one quarrel or the other until he finally left me for one lady. i felt my life was over and my kids thought they would never see their father again. i tried to be strong just for the kids but i could not control the pains that torments my heart, my heart was filled with sorrows and pains because i was really in love with my husband. Every day and night i think of him and always wish he would come back to me, until one day i met a good friend of mine that was also in a situation like me but her problem was her ex-boyfriend who she had an unwanted pregnancy for and he refused to take responsibility and dumped her. she told me that mine was a small case and that i should not worry about it at all, so i asked her what was the solution to my problems and she gave me this great man email address. i was doubting if this man was the solution, so i contacted this great man and he told me what to do and i deed them all, he told me to wait for just two day and that my husband will come crawling on his kneels just for forgiveness so i faithfully deed what this great man asked me to do and for sure after two days i heard a knock on the door, in a great surprise i saw him on his kneels and i was speechless, when he saw me, all he did was crying and asking me for forgiveness, from that day, all the pains and sorrows in my heart flew away,since then i and my husband and our lovely kids are happy.that's why i want to say a big thank you to DR.Ogboni spiritual temple. This great man made me to understand that there is no problem on earth that has no solution so please if you know that you have this same problem or any problem that is similar, i will advise you to come straight to this great man. you can email him at: ogbonispelitemple@hotmail.com

  24. I got a pair of Brooks PureFlow 2s last winter. My first run in them was 7 miles. By the time I was done I wanted to cut my feet off. I blame them for the lower leg injuries I've been carrying this year. Well, I blame me too, for doing such a long distance in new shoes! Hope they're kinder to you than they were to me!
