Happy Wednesday Everyone!
I haven't posted for a couple of days. Monday was my rest day, but DH and I rearranged our living/dining room and moved all kinds of heavy furniture around (he just "has' to have a new/bigger tv...aparently a 27" isn't big enough for a living room that's 13'x14'

). Is that cross-training? Oh well. Yesterday the kids were home from school (DS is sick...just a bad cold), so I didn't think I'd get my walk in. Just when I'd given up, DH came home early and saved the day. I was able to get a 45 minute walk in before it was totally dark.
I think one of my big mistakes in training is that I don't warm up enough. Mentally I know that I really need to stretch and walk a very slow mile before my muscles are loose enough to speed up. However, when I get out there I feel like I have to see how fast I can go so I cramp up and it's down-hill from there. Warming up is going to have to be my biggest training priority for the next couple of weeks.
It looks like today is going to be another sick day. I'm going to try to jog on the mini-trampoline in the dining room. We bought it for the children's physical therapy. Even though it was meant for adults I wasn't able to use it because I was over the weight limit. I realized last night that I'm now well under the limit, so I'm going to try it out.
I've made a few ps's for our trip. We're planning on eating Sunday night (1/9) at Boma. I was also able to reserve spots for the kids at Simba's clubhouse, so that we'll have some grown-up time. If the kids are doing well in the child center (and I haven't totally pooped out) we're going to try to go to DTD for an hour or so. Monday AM I was able to get a ps for the castle Cinderella breakfast

, and Tuesday night we're planning on the RFK at AK (we have lunch vouchers and this place is supposed to be the best deal). We also have a few Q&C vouchers, so I think we'll eat at Beaches and Cream on Friday the 7th. Saturday the 8th I signed the children up for a kid's race (I think it's in the Epcot parking lot. If there's a breakfast meet maybe we can stop in after the kid's race (they start at 8:30). We're staying at POP. I was able to get a
AAA rate of $61 a night. I tried to apply the code for $55 a night, but there was no availability for that code over marathon weekend at POP.
One more thing (I know this is turning into an epic). Nobody has mentioned wanting the Wishes cruise I have reserved for Friday the 7th. I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm going to cancel it tommorow morning at 9am if anyone wanted to call and reserve it in their name after I cancel.
I hope everyone has a great day!
