The Ins and Outs of the blog hiatus

So it feels more and more frequent that I go on these huge hiatuses from my beloved blog. Which is ridiculous because I do so enjoy writing down random nothings here and degrading my attempts and occasional successes with exercise..... Since posting the LAST post about my sugar addiction I can't even BELIEVE the number of great "blog posts" I've started in my HEAD that have just never made it over to the keyboard!! I have learned SO MUCH about sugar lately and it's enough to make your mind explode!

No, FOR REAL! ;)

Anyway.

I think we're just still really having a hard time getting in the swing of this semester! Which is ridiculous because it's halfway over. But Little Miss has been sick on and off (now is an off time - she's delightful as ever!), my lightened class schedule has me working with probably not ENOUGH structure so I'm a little flighty with some of my academic responsibilities (don't let my parents read that one! hahaha Don't worry! I AM graduating in the spring! hahaha PROMISE!), the house is in uproar, I can't always remember Little Miss' schedule with the sitter, Mr. Man still works 1.5 hours from home, etc. etc. etc.

Maybe it's just because it's my last semester? Maybe I'm just SO checked out and that's why I'm not functioning? My exercise "routine" is even....let's say OFF to put it nicely....at the moment. I'm SO much less than consistent. Which, I will tell you right now, is not doing anything to help this waistline of mine.

I miss hitting the gym regularly with The Jedi hollering at me "Up! Down. Up! UP! Down." Gosh, frankly, I miss the Jedi! And I was looking forward to getting some running in with Mi this semester...that hasn't happened.

It's just been a WEIRD couple of months. I don't know why, I don't know what to attribute it to, I don't know exactly what I need to change to fix it. In the meantime... I'm going to try when I have an awesome (or at least, a me-voted-awesome) blog post kicking around in my head to actually GET IT TYPED OUT so you're not left with....NOTHING. Aaaaand...maybe we'll get in the groove of this semester by finals??

I am SO SO SO ready to be finished school. SO ready. I even have the JOB I want and it's going GREAT and I LOVE it and I LOVE my kiddo and I can't wait to REALLY be home with her... siiiiiiiiigh

Today.... I did NOT run. I did NOT do 300. I DID eat too much ice cream, and some (some? HA! LOTS!) cookies, and I did enjoy our super-speedy celebration of Brown Mom's birthday before heading out to rehearsal. (Oh yeah, that's a WHOLE other story. hahaha I'm in a play. I know, right? Who in their right mind would put ME in a play??)

...please start leaving nasty comments if I don't post again by....Sunday. And something actually INTERESTING that people care about. hahaha THANKS!
