What a week!!

So it's been a week and a day since I was told I couldn't run.  What have I been doing you ask?  Well I have and awesome treadmill that inclines so I've been walking as fast as I can and inclining it between 0-6%.  It gets my heart rate where it should be and I'm burning as many calories as I was when I was running.  My knees are doing great.  They hurt if I bend funny or the kids get too rough. I go after them more now when I do resistance, especially yoga, so they don't knock me off balance or run into my knee.  Yesterday I spent 2 1/2 hours in Primary Children's ER with Siko.  He has what they call a Hydrocele.  Look it up to find out what exactly it is.  It has to do with his genitals and it's something that my require surgery. Boy we sure know how to have fun in this family.  But that's not it.  He came into our room barking at 4:45 this morning. Thanks to an awesome pediatrician who gave us extra meds for just in case.  Thank you Dr. Jackson.

Saturday I will be getting on my in laws elliptical   I haven't done that in forever.  I'll be ready to bring the sweat on while I'll keep catching up with Downton Abby.  Adam got a huge bonus from work.  Totally unexpected but very much appreciated.  Just when you think you may not be able to do what you have been or need to do this happens.  Thank you to his work and to our Heavenly Father.  Blessings come all the time and am thankful for everyone. Big and small.  Tomorrow another weigh in.  I'm nervous but here's to at least a pound or two.  Have a great day!!

  1. Dedication despite all odds, you are an inspiration. Especially to all of us slackers who do not exercise.
