Getting Organized

It appears there is a relationship between how much you like a person and the length of time it takes to get organized after a move.  The more you like a person, the longer it will take to get unpacked and organized. Or maybe there is no correlation at all...and we are just kinda busy.

Phill and I are still getting organized and unpacked - 13 days into our new apartment.  And this weekend's progress halted as soon as we had to resume work and school.  Our weekend's progress was slow as well.  If our weekend was a meal, the ingredients were 1 cup fun, 1 cup running, 1 cup Dunsmuir (our adorable rabbit), 1 cup unpacking, and half a cup of studying (Phill, only).  But hey, things could be worse - we could find ourselves miserably unpacking and spending our days griping about it.  

Despite a dead car battery this morning, I am happy to say this week's been pretty good.  Monday and Tuesday mainly consisted of taking the train, working, and running, but I'm grateful that the commuting via train is easy, my job is going relatively well, and that I am getting stronger and stronger each week. 

Here is what I've done so far this week, exercise-wise: 

Monday: 3 miles walking, stretch, and 25 minutes of core
Tuesday: 3.2 miles running @ easy pace, stretch

Today's plan: 

10 minutes warm up, 6 x 2 on, 2 off @ 10K - 5K pace, 10 - 15 minutes warm down

So far, I'm keeping to my goals. I read 3 pages of my book (I know, it ain't much...), kept to my running plans, and identified another project at work.  

I've attached a cute picture of our little Dunsmuir (one of his many Christmas pics).  He's loving the new place - it has carpet instead of hardwood...so his binkys and random sprints are the new norm.
