Working on my Discipline

I am quickly learning I am not very good at being disciplined in multiple areas of my life at once.  I really wish I were.  This revelation has occurred to me recently because I just began "training" for a 5K.  I put the word "training" in quotes because I don't actually have a training schedule.  I googled "how to run a 5K in 6 weeks" and multiple training plans popped up for me.  However after looking them over, I just about hated every one of them.  My current jogging regimen has consisted of jogging slowly every other day or so.  It seems to be working for me and I can see a very slight decrease in my time.  I will take that.  Wish me luck on March 23rd!  If my "training" actually worked, I might just be the next Jillian Michaels.

Anyway with this high correlation between the lack of blog posts and my recent increased attempts at jogging slowly for this 5K, I need to apologize.  My blog posting has clearly gone down substantially in the last 4-5 weeks.  I promise that although I have not been blogging consistently, I have been cooking. Maybe one day I will be disciplined in two areas of my life at the same time...

This past weekend I was able to train for my 5K in the magical land of Hilton Head.  If you have been there, you know how relaxing this place is.  It is filled with old people, quaint little seafood restaurants, and more miniature golf places than you could ever imagine.  Although this recent trip just included Matt and myself, our friend group has developed a wonderful tradition of visiting Hilton Head at least one weekend a year.  We all look forward to reading, hitting golf balls off of a nearby green, relaxing by the pool, laying on the beach, and just catching up with each other throughout the weekend.  It is just a wonderful time!  Below are some of the photos from me and Matt's recent trip.  Our friends weren't able to make it to this trip but we look forward to the next visit which will hopefully include all of them!
