Cramps and mess? No, thank you.

You all have inspired me, too! I just signed up to (walk, definitely walk) my first 5K on MLK Day. It's in honor of Deah Barakat and Yusor Abu-Salha, the Muslim students in Chapel Hill who were murdered, and the proceeds are going to a memorial award in their honor.
However, something like The Point 262 ("Run for Two Minutes, Party All Day") is more at my skill level at this point.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I feel like there is always a 5K in my neighborhood, but also like they are all kind of scene-y, so possibly intimidating. Maybe I'll at least go look at one and see what kind of people are doing them?? (Mostly I just see the packs of fit young people afterward...)

I took a sick day yesterday, and today I dragged myself to work even though I'm so tired it hurts. I need to work on strategic career stuff, come up with a plan of action that will take me out of the 'meets expectations' doghouse. But right now I have no spoons and I just want to accept defeat.

Do not accept defeat! I say that mostly because I am in a similar position wrt sick day yesterday and needing to be super strategic today. It hasn't happened YET, but any minute now, I'm sure....

And the shuttle from my house to the airport and back is booked for next month. Operation Solo Vacation to Vegas is a go! Just me and many things to read as I lounge in a hot tub or pool. And then the serious work of finding a new place to live when I get back. I hope to be in at least an apartment by the end of the year.

I missed an informal deadline before Xmas because I was out sick, then on vacation, and someone escalated it to my Executive Director, I found out yesterday. Grrr.

Ugh, Sue.
I don't need to be super strategic today, more like over the course of the next year. I have to sit down and think about it, and break it into component parts. I need to network and stuff. I have to think about what I want to be when I grow up, and I DOAN WANNA.
