This past week has been a bit more crazy than normal. \u00a0I still haven’t adjusted to time change. \u00a0I suppose I like the added daylight in the evenings, but do we really need Daylight Saving time?<\/p>\n

I have a choir concert<\/a> this weekend (If you’re in DC, come see us!), which means rehearsals three nights this week instead of the normal one. \u00a0Of course, the snow that came in on Monday night thwarted that plan. \u00a0For safety’s sake, Monday’s rehearsal got cancelled, so now we’re in limbo as to whether or not we’ll need a Saturday morning rehearsal. \u00a0I don’t want a Saturday morning rehearsal. \u00a0Saturday mornings are for sleeping in, going for a bike ride, and this weekend, going to see Beauty and the Beast!<\/p>\n

The snowstorm also didn’t help my time change issues. \u00a0I got to work from home on Tuesday, which meant sleeping in. \u00a0Yesterday morning was rough! \u00a0Even the cats didn’t want to get out of bed and they are usually 100% ready for breakfast. \u00a0Maybe by next week, my body will have this thing figured out.<\/p>\n

A crazy week also means a screwed up workout schedule. \u00a0My coach gave me a plan for the week that accommodates all of my extra rehearsals, but then with the snow, swimming was out since the pools were closed. \u00a0I will get back to the pool eventually! \u00a0Heck, next month I’ll probably be looking at an outdoor swim in my wetsuit. \u00a0But a missed swim was just the excuse I needed to get back to my strength training plan. \u00a0I have a tendency to follow that quite well for a month or so, and then it all falls apart. \u00a0Spandex season is coming! \u00a0I need to get as toned up! \u00a0(Well, as much as is physically possible.) \u00a0Plus, you know, the added strength will be good for my race season and all.<\/p>\n

So here’s to next week being much more normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
