So, my day was a little blah today. I called back the job place and realized I didn't get the position. Unfortunately they decided they wanted somebody who spoke Spanish- which the other girl did. So, she got the position. I was rather bummed, considering it seemed so promising. Usually having 2 interviews and everything else I went through makes one think all is well. I just really wished they put it in the job description. I told them my very first meeting I didn't speak Spanish and I was told it was no big deal and I shouldn't be concerned. Fantastic, huh?
Oh, well, life goes on. I spent the day feeling completely blah and pigged out. I was nervous about tracking my calories because of it, so I decided tonight I was going to run. I ran 3.5 miles (to Bridgeport lake, around the lake, and back home) extremely proud of myself for running for so long nonstop. Just a few months ago I couldn't run more than 5 minutes straight. I really pushed it this time, determined and just kept flowing. It was amazing. I also learned running on a treadmill is much different than running outside. Lol.
When I got home, I had the nerve to track my caloric intake for the day only to realize I totally didn't go over my calorie limit- probably because I didn't have time to eat lunch. So, that felt even more amazing. Still wish I didn't eat those nachos though. Luckily the cheese sauce was more of a fondue sauce and only 130 calories- which made it way better and healthier than cheddar cheese.
Anyway, that's the update. I still feel completely bloated and blah, but at least knowing I ran so well tonight makes me feel a little better.
I also updated my other blogs.
Night peeps! Time to enjoy the 3-day weekend with the husband (and the beach later!).
"May we...demonstrate kindness and love within our own families. Our homes are to be more than sanctuaries; they should also be places where God's Spirit can dwell, where the storm stops at the door, where love reigns and peace dwells." -President Thomas S. Monson
