Not Because it's Easy

... But to make it easier.  I tend to forget that if exercising were easy everyone would be doing it.  It's not reallyfu easy and it's not really fun either.  I was struggling on my run on Sunday and had to remind myself that, no, it's not easy, but it will get easier.  So there.

Eron and I had a pretty successful weekend.  Starting on Friday, I squeaked in a run before we headed out to try a new-to-us Cajun joint down the street.  It wasn't bowl us over amazing but it was still pretty tasty and I know we'll be back to try other dishes.  We went home and snuggled on the couch to watch Tron.  It was good but I wasn't in love.  I kinda want those 2 hours back.  heh.  We were up Saturday morning to get out booties to the gym - not as awkward of a return as I was expecting.  From the gym we were off to spend some time on several dozen couches.  Yep.  We went couch hunting.  We did a lot of sitting and standing and sitting and standing.  We're pretty sure we found the one we want but we haven't really decided on a color yet. But, regardless, score!  I'm more excited about this couch then you realize.  Getting a new couch is just the first step in a downstairs make over.  Weee!  I made this for dinner - Pasta with Escarole, White Beans and Chicken Sausage with some greens we got from our CSA box.  Yummy.

Sunday was pretty lazy, Eron made us breakfast and we sat on the couch for the better part of the day.  I did peel butt off the couch for a 1.25 mile run.  It didn't feel spectacular but at least I got out there.  I know I can run 1.25 miles without stopping, but I still took two very short walking breaks.  I forgot my Nike+ so I don't know how well I did.  Eron said I smelled when I got back, so I must have done something right.  Eron made stuffed eggplant and we settled in to catch up on last week's Dexter before the new episode.  I was in bed close to 11 and asleep around 2.  Weekend = WIN!  Sleep last night = Fail.

My intentions for this week:
Monday- Gym.
Tuesday- 1.25 mi run. 
Wednesday- Gym
Thursday- 1.25 mi run
Friday- Rest.
Saturday- Gym
Sunday- 1.25 mi run

Eron and I have planned some quick meals this week and I'm hoping that I'll get in some sleep so I won't be absolutely zonked for this weekends adventures.
