Finally back to MS!!! So good to be back. I was in Orlando all week, in training (groundwater pollution and hydrology class). As boring as it sounds, it was a very good class. But very LONG. We were in class from 8 AM to 8:30 PM. I managed to exercise one day, shame on me!!! I was exhausted by the end of the day, and I had a hard time sleeping at night (always happens when I travel).
So although it was a good week careerwise, it was not a good week for marathon training.
My stuff started creeping out today, started to doubt whether I can really do this. Did I bite more than I can chew? My life is FULL of responsibilities, I'm not superwoman, and I'm beginning to wonder if I can truly do this.
*sigh* I will keep training though, I'm not a quitter. I'm going to give it my best until the end of the month and then decide if I'm going to make it to Chicago or not.
I missed the meeting this morning. I was not going to go since I just got home and didn't want to leave the kids. The twins decided to "welcome" me home and kept me up ALL night. They are teething and they are just not coping well with it. And to top things off, their allergies are beginning to bother them. Thankfully they have a checkup scheduled for Thurs and I may ask the dr. if they should take something like Claritin to avoid all this.
I'll do my best to catch up with everyone's blogs. I'm so happy to be back home. Did I say that already?

I jogged! I jogged!
I did it! Never been a runner, and so far had not even attempted to jog. But I did jog from the hill and back ( the last bit, was that 0.25 miles?) Anyway, finished the 2.5 miles in 40 minutes. I can definitely see improvement, and I'm so excited!
Met Christa (it was great to meet you!) , Onetta, and Clark. I know I met more people than that, but I can't remember the names!! (sorry) I kept staring at everyone's name tag looking for Vickie LOL
I love the bags, Robin and Mark, thanks so much!!! They are awesome and today's topic was exactly what I was expecting.
Way back in the day, many moons ago, before husband and kids, I was a workout freak. I went to the gym 6 days per week and worked out for at least 1.5 hrs. I did weights, and cardio every day. As a matter in fact, I met my husband at the gym. But after my daughter was born, and things got hectic, I just stopped exercising. I would do something here and there, but never like that. Until now. I actually look forward to my workouts every day.
I'll be in Orlando all week but if I get a chance, I will get online and blog. I hope to be able to get all my training this week, but the class I'm going to (work training) is quite intensive with 3 night sessions, in addition to all day training.
sidenote: Someone asked me the other day if I laugh at people when they mispronounce my name. Never. Actually I'm quite shy about correcting people. I've been called everything you can imagine LOL
So here is the deal, if you had Spanish in high school, you can probably roll your Rs and saying my name will be easy. The R in my name sounds like a D (in Spanish, R has 2 sounds).
So my name Kayra, sounds like Ki-da. But you can call me Kay for short. My friends in college actually (to this day) call me Kay. Or you can call me Panama, or hey you, or crazy woman LOL

TGIF
Hello to my visitors!
Kim- I think the rain did help a bit. I'm glad bc I was going crazy!
Amy- thanks for the compliments on the kids. They are cute, arent' they? and so sweet! Not wonder woman, just a bit crazy. oh, and someone else told me about taking zinc. I really need to do that.
Christa-find me Saturday. Thanks for the dr.'s name and number. My allergies have never been this bad before.
I managed to get to the gym last night. Walked for 40 min and then got on the elliptical for another 10. Felt great afterwards. I'm getting ready to head to Orlando Sunday. This is the first overnight trip I've taken since the boys were born. I'll be gone all week, and will return Friday afternoon. I'm sure they'll be fine, I'm a bit worried about my husband though. He's never kept all 3 of the kids for more than a few hrs!
I'm looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow morning!
