Brain Dump

This one's gonna be pretty short but I just wanted to write a few things down.

It's been pretty wonderful here the last two weeks. Most days are in the 60's and it hasn't rained in at least that long. I was SO SICK of the cold, winter rain. I would MUCH RATHER have snow than the rain that we get. It blows and it's wet and it takes forever to get warm again. And if it was juuust a bit colder, it'd be snow and the wind wouldn't be a problem! /whine

I think the weather does a lot for my mood. I've been really motivated lately to get out and do things. I haven't felt as overwhelmed as I was a few weeks ago and I'm (arguably) more productive now. I've got a 20 page essay to write this week so I'm not really even thinking about my thesis but... it'll get done.

I've decided I want to run a 5k before it gets too hot here. I'm thinking about March 19th but I don't know if I can train to be able to run the whole thing by then. I went for a run yesterday and it was easier than I remember it being. (The p90x was probably to blame for the ease.) And I need to remember to lift weights more often.

Chase and I are trying to be conservative with our money right now. I'm pressuring him (a lot) to get a job and unless he does, we're not going to be able to move in the fall. That would REALLY bum me out. I spent Friday night applying for jobs for him. I have more motivation than he does to get a job (which is frustrating) but right now it just matters that he gets a job. Sigh.

And paper time. Happy Sunday!
