Last week was finals week and I get so extremely stressed out during finals week. For some reason, everything else in my life also seems to fall during finals week - Alex starting baseball practice Monday and Tuesday nights, long work projects...etc and for those of you who don't know, in the past.....I'm ashamed to admit, I use to smoke during finals week. I hid it from almost everyone that I knew so I'm sure that you out there in blogging world didn't know about my nasty and disgusting once a semester habit. I would turn on a movie for Alex and sneak across our alley behind a tree to light up which, I realize, is really pathetic.
However, I now jog when I get stressed and yes...it takes a bit longer to wind down than smoking an ultra-light Marlboro, but I feel much better. I've been smoke-free for two semesters now!! You can see last weeks finals week had me stressed from this picture.
I ran 6 miles one night and when I arrived home and took my shoes off, the insides of my shoes and socks were bloody! I know....EWE right?!?!! I was so focused on everything else that was running through my mind that I didn't even feel the giant blister that had formed and popped on the bottoms of my feet.
