Leaving on a jet plane

September 18, 2008 by MCM Mama Leave a Comment

OK, so not really. But the title “leaving in a minivan” or “leaving in a Chevy Uplander” did not really work for me. And I do know when I’ll be back – Tuesday. But other than that, it’s a perfect title LOL.

I ran a pretty nice 7.1 miles on Tuesday. Why 7.1? That’s how far away the car rental place was. I ran, picked up the car (I’m sure they loved that), and then started getting ready for the trip. I’ve been crazy busy, the kids haven’t been sleeping, all three of my boys have colds… Lots of fun around here.

I’ve been low carbing this week to get off a few pounds before the wedding. It worked and the dress looks great. Thankfully it didn’t seem to affect my Tuesday run too much. I tried Accelerade for the first time and that worked well for me. I was trying to avoid the hugely carby Gu and Gatorade combo I normally do. I’ll be trying to run again on Friday and I’m trying to stay low carb until the wedding (where the alcohol alone will blow my carb count out of the water LOL), so we’ll see how the run goes then.

Have a nice weekend and I’ll be back Tuesday, likely with some very interesting stories. Beer Geek’s siblings love them a good PARTAY, so the wedding reception should be a blast (and we have my mom along being “granny nanny”, so I can join the fun. Later, Gaters.

Who is MCM Mama?
A slightly obnoxious mom and wife who loves good beer and running, who struggles a bit with depression especially in the winter and when running isn’t allowed, who’d rather go on a fun vacation than upgrade the kitchen or add a master bath, and has a minor addiction to the Marine Corps Marathon.
