I don’t know why change freaks me out so much…

Back to summarizing my weekly workouts (from last week):

Every day I have been doing my glute exercises and core work after my workouts.

Monday- 7 miles @ 8:20 pace on treadmill.

Tuesday- 8 miles with Jess on the roads @ 8:30ish average pace.

Wednesday-  Stair climber and weights.

Thursday- 8 miles with Jess on the trails.

Friday- 15 minutes elliptical, 25 minutes stairs and 10 minutes rowing machine

Saturday-  10 miles @ 7:39 average pace

Sunday-  OFF

—————————————————

For some reason my brain just does not handle change very well and so I was stressing out last week.  I think it is because living at my parents during my divorce was so nice and it just felt so safe to be home and so the idea of moving out just the two of us for the first time ever started to worry me last week.

Other things I was worried about—> that the move would be hard on Brooke, I would have loud neighbors, my parents would never be able to stop crying because they would miss us so much and that I would be lonely every night after Brooke goes to bed at 8… so far none of those things have been a problem (I am pretty sure my parents have actually been throwing parties every night this last weekend;).  

Our new home feels so so incredibly right/good/perfect for us.  I don’t know why I worry so much about stuff like this because it always works out.  Now that the move is over I am sure I will find something else to worry about;)

Brooke runs around from room to room giggling, jumping on things and whenever we have people come over she makes sure to show them around the our place.  I think she even knows that this is a fresh new start for us and that we have a pretty great life just the two of us together.  

Scenes from our Sunday:

Brooke had been asking all day (and to everyone that she saw) for a cookie and so even though I still have 6 days left of the no treats thing I made some snicker doodles for my family.  

I always use a family friend’s recipe for these and even my brother-in-law who normally doesn’t like snicker doodles loves these ones!

My dessert x 3.  My favorite part of Auguest/September:

And then we ended the night by sitting around the table and coming up with names for my sister’s baby.  I really think Janae Jr. has a nice ring to it.

Monday= Runday

Change is REALLY hard for me to, I feel you on that! But almost every change always ends up being for the best!

Monday Runday!! I overslept this morning so my supposed to be 4 miler turned into 2.5, oops! But I’m meeting a local running group for a 5 miler after work, so I’ll make up for it! Plus it’s supposed to be 103 today. SERIOUS SWEAT.

Reply

I’m exactly the same when it comes to change… I stress out about all kinds of things and in the end realise that it really wasn’t necessary. Perhaps one day I’ll learn, sigh… :)

Reply

I got in 40 something last week…I did Ragnar Colorado over the weekend so that bumped up my mileage.

Change is hard, but often we are happier, stronger and healthier for it.

Love Brooke’s window bench in her room!!!

I can completely relate Janae. I struggle with change a lot. When I moved across the country twice out of my comfort zone but once I settle into a routine I’m okay. Sadly tomorrow brings me a boat load of change.

It was my highest mileage week in a while last week too…Great minds think alike right? Happy early birthday to Brooke!

Change is hard for sure!

I carry Max on my right – I’m supposed to switch sides because my back is a been screwed up now because of it. But my massage therapist fixes that for me :-)

Reply

I always stress about everything too. I remind myself constantly “if it’s not okay, it’s not the end” because things always get better just like in your case with the new apartment (and everything else)!

You just got back to running and you ran almost the same number of miles as me! It feels so crazy that my first marathon is now less than 7 weeks away!! Yours is in October too, right?? Yay 26.2!

Reply

I ran 23 miles last week – starting to ramp up mileage for the NYC Marathon (my first marathon!)

I’m glad things are going well for you and Brooke in your new place. Starting a new routine is always scary and stressful, but it sounds like all of these changes will be really good for the two of you. Also, you always have the best salads. Will you come to my house and be my salad chef? I am totally a worrier and there’s almost nothing that my brain won’t find some way to worry about. :) Have a great Monday!

Reply

I realized reading your post that I actually moved with my son five years ago today. Crazy to me, went so fast and I totally relate to everything you said! I worried a bit too but everything turned out great and we are really happy where we are. My son adjusted without issue. I feel like as long as we make it all fine, the kids are fine…I think I ran a bit over 40 miles last week. I should really pay attention lol.

Reply

I’m definitely a worrier. With our first baby set to arrive in just over a week, I have absolutely no concept of what life will be like once she’s here. While that’s exciting, the changes that are inevitably going to occur are admittedly a bit frightening. I totally understand your worry and hope our transition goes well like yours’ has.

Reply

Change is hard, but I’m so glad you’re not worrying anymore! It’ll be so nice to have your own space. And my birthday is August 23rd :) Dirty 30 this year…ah!

Reply

Last week’s miles: 24. Not crazy, but I had some intense cross training thrown in there, too!
Change used to be super hard on me and I worried all the time about everything. Then one day something clicked with Jesus and me, and I stopped worrying and started praying and placing all my worries into His hands. Change is inevitable, so I am slowly learning to go with the flow.
P.S. Those pancakes are a masterpiece in the making. Beautiful. AHHHH! WANT!
Blessings!

At times like these, it’s good to take a step back and look at the big picture:

You are moving on to better things. You are moving out to a house of your own. It’s going to be new.

And that’s it! Any other negative thoughts coming with it is just unneeded doubt and anxiety!

Reply

I got in 28 miles last week and my birthday is August 23rd! So, this is my birthday month. ;)

Change is always hard. It’s difficult to process and move on from things when you’re so comfortable with the way things currently are. Of course, change can be a good thing and that’s how we grow (even though it may be difficult). I don’t do well with change, but I know it’s a part of life!

Reply

After my husband left, my girls and I stayed with my in-laws for a year. I was really worried when we moved out, because they love their grandparents so much. It was hard on my older girl, but my baby (who is one month younger than your daughter!) thought the new place was awesome. And now, 8 months later, we are very much settled in and loving it.

Reply

Glad the change did not disappoint. I knew it wouldn’t, but sometimes harder for the person making the change to realize until they just do it!
22 miles last week.
I want to come over for pancakes!!
Do you remember where you bought Brooke’s crib from?

I think everyone freaks out a little bit when things change, but it sounds like you have things under control :) My husband and sister both have birthdays in August…and happy early birthday to Brooke!

I always waste so much energy worrying and things always have a way of working out :)

I have an August birthday! It was yesterday! I got to spend it with my 3 kids and hubby! It was a great day!

Last week was a cutback week for me… I only ran 20 miles! Plus a 50 mile charity bike ride. This week I’m back up to 45 ish running miles!

I’m DEFINITELY not great with change – I get you! Next week I’m moving back to my university for my 3rd year after spending the summer with my parents and family! I had been so excited but now that it’s actually time I am SO nervous and starting to dig in my heels! At least since it’s my 3rd year, I know it’ll be great when I get settled but the actual transition is always a little bit tough :)

Reply

I have a hard time with change, too. And I will always find something to worry about! Last week I ran 30 miles, which included 2 rest days and a 12 mile race.

I logged 24 miles last week. I’m tapering before my upcoming half marathon, so this was my lowest mileage week in several weeks.

I find the idea of change exciting and the actual change itself terrifying. I constantly worry that I’m not making the right decisions.

I’m an August Birthday (the 6th)! I love having a birthday in August. Congrats on the new place :)

Congrats on your new place, change is good! Brooke looks ver content in the new place, she is lucky to have great support and you to raise her! I have been reading about your glute exercises. I have has glute issues on my right side that constantly give me grieve every year.Always on the lookout for good exercises that are specific to glutes without using too much quads.(since these compensate) One I have been doing daily that I love is pistol squats. Place chair or workout bench behind u. Stand in front of chair, lift one leg and bring it forward in front of u. Bend and sit on chair but don’t place glut down completely. I love these cause u feel the flutes working immediately.

I am totally a worrier! Everything that I can possibly worry about… yup, I worry! ha. So glad that you and brooke are loving your new apartment! A fresh start is always good :)

Change is so hard! Especially when there are kids involved there is a lot to worry about! If you weren’t stressed out then THAT would be weird :) Glad you are settled in though and Brooke looks really happy.

My daughter’s birthday is Aug 14 on Thurs, is that Brooke’s?

I always carry my kids on the left, but I’m left handed so figured that’s why. I completely spaz out on the right :)

Reply

I think worrying when it comes to change is pretty normal. You’re going from something familiar to something unfamiliar.

Do you have any plans for Brooke’s birthday?

Reply

Last week, 26.3! Over a marathon! ;)
Longest amount of mileage since foot surgery in March of 2013. It’s been a slow recovery but totally worth it. I’m increasing very slowly. I’m hoping to run my first marathon next year.
I always loved moving into a new place. It is a new start!

Reply

Change is very hard for me. I worry too. And just like you said when it works out I find something else to worry about. I’m super sensitive and sentimental and grow attached to things way too easily. I am saying goodby to my beloved jeep after 12 years and know I am going to cry when I leave her at the dealership for the trade in.

Running has helped me so much with dealing with blips in my otherwise normal day to day. Janae jr! Now go find that on a coke can :)

Congrats on your new place! And I have no idea how you have dodged sugar so many days.. I could not do that at all.

..not to mention if Brooke’s birthday is in four-days, I think I would have-to-have at least one slice of my daughter’s (if I had one) cake. …Maybe you can make it a week long celebration with multiple cakes so that you can have some.

Happy running!

I only ran 10 miles last week. :( Busy summer! This week will be better.

I carry Ava on the left; however, now it’s more centered! She is 4 and I need the weight more evenly distributed!

August is a great month for a birthday! Mine is tomorrow!

Yes, I’m a worrier. About anything and everything, but mostly about the unknown and what-ifs. The worse stuff to worry about, I think!

You have a beautiful life<3 Thank you for sharing it with us x

Miles=25. I run my first half in a week!

With my son I only carried on my left. Then I had twins…surprise! Good thing I have two hips!

I am a constant worrier. Like all day everyday. And when I have nothing to worry about. I am worried I forgot to worry about something. Sad, but true.

So happy for your fresh start. I don’t always comment, but I’ve been thinking it. Great days are ahead for you.

Yay Snickerdoodle’s! I got to introduce them to my boyfriend’s family last Christmas (they’d never heard of them!)

Reply

I love the window seat built in to Brooke’s room! I love snickerdoodle cookies. I mean, they’re not my first choice, but I do love them if they are soft and chewy. My mom always made good ones when I was a kid.

No running here still. My kids are still on summer break and it’s like 500 degrees and humid here (south FL). Hopefully in the next month I can lace up again.

I usually carry little ones on my left also. I think because I need my dominant right hand to do all the tasks while I hold them?

I don’t handle change well at all! I tend to freak out if something, even the smallest thing, changes.
I also worry A LOT! About every thing. I run through different scenarios in my head and get myself even more worked up. I was dreading Monday morning so it took me 3 hours to fall asleep. So far, so good though. I just wish I would learn to listen to people when they say its going to be ok and to just move on with it. One day, maybe.

Reply

Change is SO HARD for me too. I think it’s because I feel like things get out of control and that is so hard for me to deal with. I am going through a huge change right now – quitting my amazing job of 7 years to go back to nursing school full time. It is so scary because I am the breadwinner in the family (by a lot) so we have to take out a ton of loan money to live on and it’s going to be such a drastic change to go from working full time to studying full time. I am trying to stay calm through the entire process (this is my last month at work!!!) but I can feel so many of my old issues right on the surface of my soul (restricting my food, bulimia, over-exercising, cutting, etc.) and it is such an exercise in strength to keep them at bay. It is crazy how instability can really wreck havoc on our minds. Glad your move went so well and all your worrying was for nothing. I am hoping that is the case for me too and I don’t regret making the decision to go back to school.

And I carry my son on my left hip all the time – which I find weird because I’m right handed and I always thought my left arm was weaker. And maybe it was…until I started carrying 2o pounds around with my left arm!

Reply

you know I’m praying for you both and this new transition!! love you friend!

I do not do well with change either, it always gives me so much anxiety. I know that it’s good for us, though! If nothing ever changed, life would be pretty boring!

Reply

Yup, change is hard. My family has had a lot over the past 7 months (my husband’s dad died, my granny died, my husband moved from the area he grew up in to a town 3 hours away to be closer to the Canadian border, we got engaged and married, I got a different job). No matter if it’s hard changes or happy changes, it’s still all an adjustment and can cause stress. I find I need the people I love the most in those times, especially my close girlfriends, because they remind me of who I am and keep me grounded. You are doing an awesome thing for your family, Janae! It takes courage to step out on your own. :)

Reply

I always carry my son on the left side because I’m not coordinated with my left hand so I need my right one free to do things. :) But now after doing that for 18 months my left arm is stronger than my right. I’m a worrier too when it comes to anything about my son. I think that is normal mom instinct though!! Way to go on 33 miles, that is awesome!!

Reply

Your new apartment looks so cute! I think it’s completely understandable that you would be worried and anxious. I’m glad it’s for naught.

I do worry. But I try to balance it out with the reassuring thoughts that really…God always takes care of us and the worst possible scenario is still survivable.

You have great strength to deny yourself the Snickerdoodles. Good job!

I ran about 25 miles last week, this week is a taper week!

I think I carry my kiddos on my left :0) They’re so big now, that I have to kind of wrap them around my body.

Change is super hard for me. It keeps me up at night, sometimes even good changes. I’m changing job locations for next school year and this is my dream location, yet I still have nightmares and stress about it. Silly.

Reply

I carry my kids on my left as well… It just doesn’t feel right on my right… If that makes sense…

I like change but I worry all of the time! I worry about money, the future, races, work… Lol, pretty much every scenario on life! No wonder why I can’t sleep at night!

Change is always hard for me. I have tried to resist it too on the past and it just ends up being worse. It’s best to try not to focus too much on it and more on all the opportunities it will open for you.

I carry my daughter on my left too, but I thought it would be the opposite for us since we’re both lefties!! I try to switch her to my right hip sometimes – for balance AND because I need to use my left hand while cooking/stirring haha. Oh and I really thought my daughter was going to be a lefty like me (she sucks her left thumb), but he draws with the right one! It’s very interesting :)

Have a great week!

I ran 0 miles last week. Took two weeks off after my last marathon before I started training for NYCM! I’m ready to run!

I am totally a worrier. I get it from my mom – she worries about EVERYTHING! I think I worry primarily about my family – their safety, happiness, etc. Most of it seems to relate to them, even though I have no real reason to worry about them!

I suppose it depends on what the change is. I think its always a bit frustrating at least – trying to figure out where you put things when you move, how change will affect your schedule, if the change is really for the best or if it’ll be a bad decision…hmm…maybe I do have a problem with change…. :)

Reply

I only got in 8.25 miles last week :( One 6 mile run + one 2.25 mile “I need to run before I kill someone” run. Luckily, the run helped and no people were harmed :)

I’m a horrible worrier/ stress ball, which is so weird bc I never used to be. I guess it’s that whole being an adult thing that makes people stressed out? Yeah, I’d really rather give up that whole adult thing and trade it for being a carefree teenager again.

On another note, I was so excited to find your blog – After a few years of signing up for marathons and then getting injured (ACL tear&reconstruction one year, broken mandible, cracked palate and 3 fake teeth another – thanks, girl who headed me in the face at rec. soccer) I’m running my first marathon in a few months, Chicago!! I’m always looking for more motivation, and I think your blog will be my new go-to when I’m feeling a bit discouraged or need a pick-me-up before a run!

AUGUST BIRTHDAY WOOT! Turning 27 in 2 weeks and definitely ready since I have already been telling people I’m 27 for about 8 months.

I ran a whopping 8-ish miles last week. I’m slowly coming back from an injury, and I was stoked to have those 8. I did get to run Saturday and Sunday this weekend, which was awesome.

I do worry about a lot of stuff, but change and moving isn’t usually one of them. I get stressed when I start a new job, but I’ve moved so many times that at this point I know it will all work out. I’ve moved to multiple new states, across the country twice, and I’ve lived in about 20 different houses/apartments. Once you’ve packed up and hauled your stuff to a new place that many times, it’s not as stressful.

So glad you’re liking your new place so far!

Those snickerdoodles.. perfection! Definitely going to save that one :) I think I only ran about 15 miles last week – I was stuck in the car for 4 of the last 7 days!

I got injured (fell on a rocky trail run) a week ago Saturday, so my mileage was pretty low for the week (7), but I was able to do a little upper body and core work and finally a few more miles of running this week.

I wanted to request a Brooker video of her talking if you get the chance! I know at this stage she probably is just yacking up a storm, so it would be fun to see/hear. New things and change can be terrifying and exciting at the same time. I’m on the verge of going back to school and leaving the traditional work force for a while and I’m pretty terrified even though I know the path it will lead me down is the right one.

I ran 0 miles last week. Still just walking. It seems things are healing slower this time around. Which is uber lame. Patient is not a word that is often used to describe me.

My friend gave me a bag of peaches from her tree and I think I eat 3 in each sitting. They are so freakin delicious and I can’t get enough of them.

Brooke’s birthday is the day right between my MIL’s and daughter’s.

I’m sure it’s a huge change for you moving from a situation that feels very comfortable with tons of support (and babysitting!) But it’s probably a necessary step and I’m glad the transition seems easier than you expected.

Congrats on your new place – change freaks me out as well. I recently moved on my own too and it is the best – especially when you have a wonderful and supporting family close by!

I was so worried I had missed her birthday! So happy for this new chapter in your lives. I do love the windows seat in Brooke’s room.

BTW…any interest in used picture books? We cleaned out V’s and had 6 bags worth. I have been giving some away, but willing to send some to Brooke. These are the paper kind, not board books, not chapter books.

Just wanted to say that I enjoy your blog. At first I was thinking, this is mostly a woman’s club, which may be true, but my wife and I like food every bit as much as you, and besides your work ethic and especially your running times prove every day that your worth reading. I am impressed. It takes hard work, which you do not mind doing.

Lots of positive thinking in these blog posts also
