This week was a wash.

This past week was a waste of a training week. Mainly because I DIDN'T TRAIN. I ran 1 mile all week and that was on my lunch break on Friday. I just didn't feel up to it. It was one of those weeks that you wish that you could just erase. After getting some bad news on Sunday, the week began in a downward exhausting spiral. Monday I had class until 8:30 at night, Tuesday I has a deacon's meeting, Wednesday I had church, Thursday I had Trunk-o-Treat at the church, Friday consisted of cleaning the house top to bottom since we had company coming, Saturday I played golf with friends and family, and today we have had church. so basically I have been very busy. I have not had the drive to go run. I have to get a 12 mile run in sometime at the beginning of the week and then I have another one on Saturday.

I am just not feeling motivated. Tuesday we are going to the doctor for our scheduled baby check up and we are going to be asking the doctor if it is okay for Juliet to travel to St. Augustine fl for the half marathon. I really hope we can go. I am not going to go without her. I really hope we get to go. If not I will absolutely be doing a half marathon on thanksgiving in Atlanta.

Though I have been feeling a bit down lately, we had a great church service this morning. I could feel the spirit moving at multiple times during the service I had goose bumps. I guess a big issue I am currently having is stress. I am stressed out about making sure everything is in order when baby Brown decides to make an appearance. It is difficult to streamline operation of the audio/visual team when I am used to taking care of the entire thing. I have a good friend of mine that is going to take care of it while I am gone but I just want to make sure there are no surprises for him while I am gone.  I am used to troubleshooting on the fly and I feel very comfortable with the system we use and with electronics so it is not a big deal for me to run into a snag, but he is new to all of these things and the process. I know this is God teaching me to be faithful and trust that he will take care of things. I just need to stop being stubborn and to let him take care of it. You would think that after all of this time I wouldn't work about things but every once in a while I just get caught up in trying to make things perfect. I am going to try to stop worrying about it and go read my Runner's World Magazine and relax. Have a good one.
