Whoop de freakin doo!

I’ve been mad at my blog.  Actually, it’s not my blog’s fault.  It was my own stupidity that deleted the folder on my phone that contained all of the images within my blog.  WHY DOES MY PHONE HAVE ALL THIS POWER!!??!!??!!

I remember thinking, “Nah, there’s no way there’s not a back up on my laptop, this folder has to be just for my phone.  No big whoop.”

Well it was a big whoop.  A big fat whoop-de-doo!  The good news is that I still have my pictures.  The bad news is that I have to go back in and add them one at a time.  Thus, I’ve been avoiding my blog.  I’m not sure I want to go back in and add all my pictures.  There’s not a huge demand to do so.  And another big question is, should I keep my blog with blogger?  Is now the time to move to self hosted?  Or Wordpress?  I have purchased my domain, and I have been toying with self hosting, but I don’t think I have the skills or patience to do it myself.  Ayynnnddd, I don’t have the budget to hire someone to do it.  Any offers of free? lol!

Putting that aside….

My running streak is still going!  Ten Days Strong!  Since my streak started on March 23rd, I’ve run a total of 21 miles.  I’m still telling myself “at least one mile.”  Most all of my runs are at an easy pace and I go based on what my body is telling me.  My long runs have been on Saturdays, and this weekend, I will undertake 6 miles.  This week, I’ve bumped up the rest of my runs from one mile to 1.5 miles and I think I’ll continue to increase each week by a half mile and a full mile increase on Saturdays.  Again, I’m not advising this kind of running plan for anyone.  I’m the weirdo that ran three full marathons before I ever ran my first “official” half marathon.  So don’t turn to me for running advise unless you want to play that game of “Do what I say, not what I do.”

The other “streaks” that I have been working on are decluttering for 15 minutes a day, and doing a leg strength training routine each day.  I feel like my legs, or at least my booty is my biggest problem.  Hello pear!

Decluttering….I did real well until last weekend hit.  This isn’t a streak I want to abandon, I just need to revise the “rules” a little bit.

Legs….Same thing.  I have been getting in some strength training moves each day, just not always legs.  I think I want to find a few full body strength training workouts that are on the shorter side and a more focused for runners.  Any recommendations?

Do you have any streaks going?

Have you ever done any habit streaks?

Is anyone hungry for steaks now?

PS I wrote this post a few days ago.  Still mad at my blog.  That or I’m busy (aren’t we all?) and I haven’t made this blog a priority.  But the running streak is still going….except it turned into a walking streak for the last two day.  I’m ok with that.

To help you ease through the transition though, I give you this.  Don’t hate me.
