Day 16
ibuprofen: 600mg so far and more to come
35 days until triathlon, I think
OK, so on the heels of my thought for yesterday, this song came up on my iPod at 5:45 this morning while I was walking....the song is called "Unwritten," by Natasha Bedingfield
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten...
There is so much out there to do and see and feel, and no one can do it for me. I have to get out there myself.
Which brings me to....I am exhausted. Really. Truly. On Wednesdays, I go to choir rehearsal at my church, which I really enjoy and it's great, but I often don't get home with the baby until about 9:00, then it's dinner and bath and bed for her, and by the time I finally turn in it's almost 11:00. So when the alarm goes off at 5:00, I (so far) have been able to get out there and do what I need to do for my training. But then I have to go to work. And then I have to be a mom. And right now, my dear toddler refused to take a nap this afternoon and is screaming. So I have to do something about getting more sleep on Wednesday nights if I'm going to keep this up. I have to keep this up. It's finally starting to show that I am doing all this training, and I have to keep this up.
I better keep that happy and inspirational music going on the iPod!

I am so impressed with what you are accomplishing. I will be at the triathelon to cheer you on at each event. You are a true inspiration to everyone, and I know you will reach your goal. I love your blog--what a talented writer you are--and it should become a book when you have finished. See you at Starbuck's soon!
Go get'um! But we really need to get you cooler music.
