Wounds, Self Doubt, Sabotage, & Halloween

Oh boy. Lovely things to be experiencing.

Wounds: 1.5 miles into my 5 mile run this morning I decided to eat cement....that apparently was not enough for the cement so it took a bunch of my skin WITH it and left me full of dirty wounds. Did I cry? No. Did I hurt? Oh geez yes...it burn like a SOB!!! What did I do AS SOON as it happened? I JUMPED right back up and started running again. Yup as I hurt, burned, and was thinking this sucked...looking at my left hand as it oozed, bled and looked HORRIBLE...I kept on running not even thinking of it. I went numb I was fine and I just kept running. I stopped for MAYBE 10 seconds 1/2 mile later just to ASSESS the damage. I looked shook my head and said oh boy, then started hitting the pavement again (the right way this time lol). I told myself I am so blessed to be able to tolerate pain. I am so strong lol if I can handle 100% natural childbirth (& that did not hurt much!) who cares about this. Anywho...1/2 away from finishing I REALLY started burning. When I got home I SCRUBBED my wounds and they still are not clean. GOD that was TORTURE that hurt so amazingly BAD. Grr....I put a bunch of peroxide & neosporin on the wounds...then bandaged them up. Legs have big bandaids and my left hand has gauze and tape wrapped around it. I am working with ONE hand which is so incredibly hard. Try washing dishes with one hand lol...I was supposed to do ST'ing today...ya that did not and will not happen. Eh life happens.... Here are some pictures  of my BADGES OF HONOR :) Once I take bandages off to clean again Ill snap pictures :)

 Eh what can I say...it happens...
 Booo! Pooy on injuries lol....
I am supposed to be a baby/little girl for Halloween today...but I might just need to go as a mummy instead! ;)

Halloween: Can't wait to take my boys tonight. Noone celebrates any more so I am afraid that it will result in no candy. Poor kids..I WANT CANDY TOO!! ;) haha Yes I will be having some.

Sabotage: I have eaten too much of too many bad things past few days. Need to fix it...after tomorrow. I am allowing myself candy. I already said that MONTHS ago.

Self doubt: I seem to find out about HILLS after I sign up for "races". I signed up for 3/4 of my 1/2 marathons...come to find out they are ALL hilly (one that I def know for sure VERY VERY hilly) What the heck!! I find out all my 1/2's are hilly AND my MARATHON is as well. I am doubting myself regarding being able to do THEM period let alone being able to run a 1/2 period. Really? It is not really fully doubt. I mean I am afraid I can't and am nervous and "scared" I won't be able to, BUT I will not and am NOT having it stop me. I just do not want the doubt to get full blown.

That is about all folks!
XOXOXO
