Done and done!!

OK, so I *know* what I should do today, but getting my sorry butt outta bed is another story.  It's so warm in bed.  My hubs has been out running for almost 2 hours now (training for his marathon next month).  I should be training for my half marathon next month, but my motivation wanes.   I think in about 10 min. I'll drag my lazy butt out of bed, put on the loaded backpack and hit the treadmill for a couple hours of "hiking." 

Here's the problem:  it's the weekend, it's cold outside, it's warm in bed and I'm lazy.  I've become quite the lazy bag of bones as of late.  I can't seem to find the motivation to do much of anything lately.  I will ride my bike to work, do a little running (maybe), and sorta take care of my responsibilities around the house- but not much else.  I don't have any motivation to do much of anything anymore.  I wonder if it's just the winter blahs that are finally catching up with me.
Seems we get a taste of Spring with a day or two of glorious warmth- then we get hit with winter again and we're stuck inside on a cold and dreary day.  Enough of that already!!!  It's supposed to be in the 80's a couple days this week.  Woo hoo!!!  Then it's back to the low 50's for the weekend again.  Boo!!!

I like the quote, tho:   Don't blend in.  Stand out.

I try to do that as much as humanly possible.  I need to conform to be professional in my job, but at every chance I get (my VFF's for instance), I try to stand out.
I can't stand being "one of many."  I crave the differences, the uniqueness, the kooky!  The older I get, the more I want to take the path less traveled than the others.  I want to to live freely, be different and bold.  I just need to figure out how to do that and still stay married to a straight-laced guy.  It may become tricky in the years to come. ;)

Have a great Sunday!!  I think I see the sun trying to come out:  oh what a glorious moment!!

Added:
I went ahead and hiked on the treadmill at 9% for 4 miles with my 25 lb pack on.  I was slow, but it doesn't matter how fast I go.  I'll be going slower on our trip, so anything over 1.5 miles per hour is fast. ;)
I thought we'd be carrying around 40 lbs each on the hike, but I've now decided I'm going to pare down the necessary items and only carry around 25 or 30 max.  The heaviest part will be the food and water we'll have to carry.  The clothes and sleeping stuff will be light.  1.2 lbs for each sleeping mat, 4 lbs for the tent,  less than a pound for each sleeping bag liner, about 6 lbs for the "kitchen."  I'm guessing about 5 lbs worth of clothing.  It's the food and water that will weigh the most.  I'll be working on that in the next 8 weeks.  We'll have a filter to clean water, so we won't have to carry quite so much with us as we can pump and filter along the way.
I've got lots of prep to do, because 25 lbs in my pack is more than enough!!!
