I have been to the gym a total of three times during the month of April.  Three.  That kills me…. not only do I feel like a fat piece of you know what, but I shelled out my membership dues and didn’t get anything out of it.   Wah.  So yeah, I was sick with pesky pneumonia and I’m still on my inhaler treatment, so I’m not even sure the ole lungs are actually ready to get back to working out, but I think I should have least tried to get back to to the gym.   Here is the problem… I think I am recovered because I’m not doing anything that requires any type of physical exertion, but the second I do something besides sit on my couch, I get exhausted (this weekend is a perfect example of that).  Even going out to dinner kills me! I have another follow up doctor appointment this week, I hope my peak flow is back to normal, because I’m sick of this!

So ok, I didn’t work out last week, but here is what went down instead.

Got my hair highlighted.

Creepy self pic taken on walk home from salon.

Went to a mid week happy hour with Eagle.

Southbranch. Nice lil after work spot. Oh and the nachos are amazing.

I did not get selected in NYC marathon lottery.  But it’s ok, I’m guaranteed entry next year!

Not selected. Boo.

I may not be running NYCM, but I stepped up my “NYC or BUST” plan.

Am I really ready to move to a place where I have to live in a tiny studio?! CAN I LEAVE CHICAGO?!

Went out to dinner with Heather.

Thumbs up to feeling like a normal human again. Peace out, pneumonia!

And also with Amy!

We overheard the most amazing convos at dinner. Simply amazing.

Facetimed with Norman and MCH.

These are easily the two stupidest animals ever. But both are so cute, so you can ignore their ignorance.

Speaking of FaceTime, my dad is now a FaceTiming machine…. and will not take “no” for answer when he calls you.

We really love social media in this family.

Oh and I got a new purse!

I got it in black, but kinda thinking I should have gotten the yellow??

And today I’ve spent the day on the couch with this little guy!

He loves his mom!

So basically what this post has done is confirm that I have been a lazy bum this week.   And I’m thinking that maybe I wasn’t ready for a “normal” weekend this “soon” after pneumonia.  I’m pretty much exhausted right now.  Plan for the month of May is lay low and work on getting my fitness level back to an acceptable level before marathon training starts in June!

Can't. Wait.
