I feel kinda bad.
Yesterday was Kent’s birthday. We’ve been friends with Kent since we were kids. I find out on our way to lunch – with Kent and friends – that he has planned to have a bunch of people over for his birthday for dinner. (Thanks, iPhone for not giving me my voicemail.) And I panic. I’m already eating lunch away from home – with Kent and the people that we know that would be at dinner. So I put myself first and bailed on dinner. If we would have done dinner, it would have meant either 1) rushing home, running, and getting beautified again to make it back to his house or 2) not running. I feel bad. But if I would have known before lunch, I would have eaten lunch at home, ran, and gone to dinner. So he still would have gotten just one meal with us. It was just a different meal, right? It all evens out?
You can see I’m not good at this selfish stuff.

On a brighter note, listen to what my husband said.
Nathan was telling me about his workout last night.
“So I went for a run and I went to the gym to do my weights. I thought about pulling a Krissie, but it looked like it was gonna rain, so I just came home.”
“Pulling a Krissie?” I asked.
Yes, it seems that in my house, running a long time is known as “pulling a Krissie.”
I’m so proud!
Hahah love it, your hubby sounds wonderful! Happy Monday Krissie!
I never comment (on anyone’s blog, don’t take it personally LOL) but I just HAVE to say that WOW, what I difference in your photos below (Oct 1 vs Oct 31). Keep up the amazing work! The pounds just keep melting off you.
I’m so happy that after a long struggle you are successful. It’s very inspiring! And it makes you so human. You are gorgeous!
Putting yourself first in that situation shows how perfectly committed you are to your goal. You are completely rocking it. If you would have known, it would have been different, but you didn’t compromise yourself out of guilt! = AWESOME!
“Pulling a Krissie” hehe that’s awesome!
