Let's get this!

I'm back... both to writing and hitting the gym.
I was at the gym last night with my partner-in-crime, Liz, and boy was our run training a good one.

We hit those treadmills pretty hard... running at 5 miles an hour when the app appointed me to run from my walking position. I couldn't believe that I was running that quickly.

We are on a mission... we are training very hard to be able to run this races within good time. To be stronger women, in both mind and body. To be better women, stronger women... and this will be our year to achieve the goals that we have set forth for ourselves. No more joking around... things must be done for our own health and well-being.

This weekend was great!
And it made up for the days that were terrible for me last week.

Friday night...
We had our couple's sushi dinner at the House of Sushi and Noodles...

Yum! - 3rd round

Yum! - 1st round

Yum! - 2nd round

We ordered three rounds of sushi rolls... and OMG, it was great! We had 12 rolls the first round, 9 rolls the second round and 3 rolls the final/third round. And all the rolls were super good! And the company of Griz, Jay, Karla and Angel, along with the hubby was great!

Afterwards, we decided to go to a night club not far from Grand and Harlem but unfortunately, the hubby and I weren't able to get in because of the shoes he was wearing. So we stopped at Walgreen's, got some beer and headed home to drink the beer and watch a movie.

Saturday, after going to the nephew's school to watch the older one's last basketball game of the season, which they lost by one point - but it was a great game nonetheless. 

After leaving there, we headed to Enchanted Castle to celebrate Grissell's youngest son's birthday. And boy did the princess have a great time!

Alliana, the princess and birthday boy, Anthony

After leaving Enchanted Castle, I had to pick up a few things at Target and then I headed home with the princess. So we got home to the hubby... and hung out at home.

On Sunday...
Hung out at home for a little while and then we headed out to get some breakfast at Denny's with the hubby and princess.
Afterwards we ran some errands and then headed over to Grissell's house so we can all sing happy birthday to Anthony and his grandfather, Junior.
Thankfully since I didn't have to work on Monday, we stayed pretty late there and had a wonderful time.

On Monday...
Thank goodness I was off because I was exhausted!
Cleaned the fridge, did laundry and cleaned up a bit... and I was ready to go to bed.
The hubby got home and we talked and I was able to get to bed at a decent hour... I think before 11pm. LOL!!

Tuesday...
On this morning, I had an appointment at the fertility clinic to get some blood work done. So after doing that, the hubby was so wonderful in driving me into work.
After being gone from work for a long weekend, it was a long day of catching up to the emails from people who worked on Monday and a two-hour meeting that I was taking notes in.
Thankfully I was able to get to the gym... I surely needed it.

Wednesday...
A long day at work but thankfully done...
Going to pick up the princess, spend some time with her before heading to the gym again tonight.

Tomorrow I don't work but I do have an appointment again at the fertility clinic but this time with the doctor - who I haven't seen in ages!
This is going to be an appointment to go over the next steps for me... injections of the hormone to help me along. I am feeling nervous but positive about this appointment.
I am going at this appointment alone - the hubby is unable to come with me - but I will be strong and see what she has to share with me.

Hopefully I will be able to get on tomorrow and give you an update with what happens.
So much going on... so much going on.

Hasta la proxima!
