The Last Cookie

One of the perks of working full time is that I can now bring some goodness that we have in our home (aka treats) for our staff at work. I figure that it is better in their tummy than mine. A few months ago the kids had a fund raiser selling cookie dough for gymnastics. We ordered all the "healthy" doughs, but one of the flavors wasn't our favorite. It was the Cocoa Oatmeal Raisin. I ended up making a batch of cookies last night and bringing it to work with me this morning. I just put it on our secretary's desk as all the teacher's usually pass by her desk before they head to their class. Can you believe all the cookies were gone at 8:25am. I am not sure why, but I thought that they would last all day...hmmm. I guess I'll have to bring the second container tomorrow : ) All the cookies were gone except one...funny how no one ever wants to take the last one. It's as if that last one is the indicator which suggests that you are one that ate them all or you are the one that doesn't share. I have a feeling that the last cookie will still be in there till the end of the day.

This morning I woke up at 1am to the sound of wind. Unfortunately, I wasn't unable to fall asleep again till after 2 am. This made getting up at 4 am unattainable...it wasn't going to happen. Alarm went off and Trevor and I just said...I slept like crap how 'bout you? We agreed to postpone today's workout. He will go at lunch and I will do mine tonight. I am thinking that a nice 6 mile run will do. I actually prefer working out in the evening, but with helping the kid's with their homework, making lunches, and giving them a bath it doesn't leave a lot of time for working out. My cutoff time for functionality seems to end at 9pm...anytime after that I am just too tired to do anything. I can't even stay up past 9:30 pm.

Only 10 more sleeps till my next 10km race...first race of the season...yeah!! If only I can drop 5 lbs by then...stupid weight...always an issue. Oh well...at least I am doing well with eating (meaning that I have been good as far as ED is concerned). I am doing amazingly well. I seem to have changed my thought process when it comes to how I view things and deal with stress. I am amazed at how far I've come. God has been so good to me...
