Monday Mental Health Day

So the good news is that I had an amazing workout day yesterday - I ran 1.5 miles and walked for about 3.5 around the neighborhood (counting walking the dogs), so that was good.  Thomas and I then went to the zoo to celebrate our anniversary, which was super fun, but also meant more walking.  Good for the exercise quota, bad for the feet.  Okay, so good news out of the way.  The bad news is that we went to dinner at Roaring Fork and I managed to eat waaaayyy too much.  We then went and got Marble Slab ice cream. I am not even sure where I put all of it, but I somehow finished my cone.  Needless to say, I was pretty miserable.  To top it off, I didn't sleep *at all* last night, so I made the executive decision to call in sick today (okay, so I emailed in sick since my boss is out of town).  I hate calling in sick, and I always feel guilty (thank you three years at Southwest United), but sometimes you just need a day.  I just think it is funny that in all of the sick days I have taken in the last four years, like two of them have actually been when I was sick.  Knock on wood.  So Thomas and I have been sitting here today being absolute bums, which has been quite nice.  There is so much stuff I should be doing - vacuuming, cleaning, going to pick up my prescription, watering the flowers, but instead, I am just going to continue to sit on my (fatter than yesterday) ass.  Luckily, today is a rest day, so I am not going to feel bad for missing any training, as I don't have any!  I am hoping that doing nothing today will give my heel a chance to heal (haha) as it was pretty sore yesterday.  So, tomorrow will be my Monday at work, but that is okay.  I will worry about it then.  I am pretty tired of all the crap at work anyways right now, truth be told.  I am looking forward to my run tomorrow to get back on track.  I really wish I could avoid the binge eating I tend to do the once or twice a week we go out to eat...it definitely does not help my goals any.  Well I am working on quitting smoking now, so maybe that will be next.  One life changing thing at a time, thank you :)
