Welcome to the April edition of the Ultimate Coffee Date hosted by Coco and Deborah. It’s also time for another edition of Fit Five Friday hosted by My First 5K and More, Running with Attitude, Run Laugh Eat Pie, Runs with Pugs, and me!
Now, grab a mug of your favorite beverage, and let’s chat briefly!
If we were having coffee…
I’d tell you that I have been enjoying my Spring Break. I caught up on reading blog posts and reading and commenting on comments. I also went downtown for what I thought would be a Lasik consultation, met a coworker for lunch, and met the family for lunch. I also watched TV and read my book.
If we were having coffee…
I’d tell you that I am going back in May for another Lasik consultation. Since I already had Lasik years ago, I have to get a different set of tests. I have to pay for them (I have HMO so my insurance will not pay for them). I walked out annoyed on Monday because I didn’t know about it and didn’t want to pay. However, if I really want to get this procedure done, then I will just suck it up and pay.
If we were having coffee…
I’d tell you that I am also off on Monday. We usually get Good Friday off and this year we are already off because of Spring Break. Our next day off won’t be until May for Memorial Day and then we are done for the school year that Friday. I am taking a few half days off for doctor appointments for me and my mom. These next few months will fly by!
If we were having coffee…
I’d tell you that on Wednesday I signed up for 4 races! There is another one that I am interested in next month but will play it by ear. The price will increase on May 1st so I have until then to decide. These are all local races with the next one taking place on April 16th.
If we were having coffee…
I’d tell you that I had missed out on the opportunity to meet and hear Desi talk about her new book “Choosing to Run”. I have met her a few times and didn’t want to pay to see her again. Does that make me cheap and am I really missing out since I didn’t want to pay? The event was postponed to April 20th because she was stuck in NYC and couldn’t make it in time to come here.
Earlier this week I read part of her book and was HOOKED. I wanted to read more. I am waiting to get a copy from the library so I can read it. I could buy it but I really do not need another book. Soon I need to start decluttering again and do not want to bring extra stuff into the apartment.
