Ran Yesterday and have plans to run again tomorrow with friends. woo woo!!

I posted this on fb last night.. If you are exhausted, run anyway. I was seriously tired. If I didn't have plans to run with people, I totally would have talked myself out of going. So I went. And it was AWESOME. I was no speed demon for sure, but I went longer than I had planned. Then I slept like a log. snore.

Ate really well today, and am looking forward to the scale this week.

Feeling good!!

it is only 100.9, i generally do not medicate until it get higher, let the fever do it's thing. new theory is she picked up something at the drs office yesterday

That's a bit quick. Most viruses have way longer incubation times.

I always thought it was at least 48 hours.

merigayle · August 29, 2012, 07:41:42 AM

Yay tricia!

My car wouldn't start this morning, so I walked to work. It was really wonderful - perfect weather and I barely limped. It felt so good to be fairly normal. DH figured out it was just a dead battery, so we won't have to put it in the shop. Win!

Still no movement on the scale.

I keep telling myself that it's about healthy living and not numbers on the scale, but it's still annoying.

Bleh I have been having heart palpitations and went to the Dr. yesterday and she examined me and then sent me to the ER. So I got to sit there for 6+ hours in cardiac triage with the other 70 year old men

I guess I have MVP and possibly something wrong with my thyroid

debbatx · August 29, 2012, 11:14:47 AM

Good job, tricia!

I need a running buddy. I'm too disgustingly lazy to drag ass out of bed by myself.

onawhim, yikes!! I don't know what MVP is, but I hope you're okay!

diablita · August 29, 2012, 11:22:27 AM

mitral valve prolapse?

onawhim

onawhim · August 29, 2012, 11:25:58 AM

yeah. I have to go for a bunch of heart-y tests still but probably not a big deal. And they said there is no risk with working out so back on the horse

I thought maybe I was going to have a good excuse to be lazy for life. Foiled!

debbatx · August 29, 2012, 11:37:00 AM

Ohhhh. Okay, that makes more sense. Glad you can still work out!

Ah, the holy grail of an excuse to be lazy!

merigayle · August 29, 2012, 11:51:27 AM

mini glad you are less gimpy and onawhim, omg, glad you are ok.

Run Amok · August 29, 2012, 11:59:17 AM

Ugh. Waiting at the hospital is the absolute worst! Glad to hear that things are probably ok though!

Someone went to sbucks and they made them the wrong drink... so I was gifted with a chai tea latte. Between the sugar and caffeine- I am buzzing! Good thing, too, because I have a lot to get done today and a short day.

i could use some sugar + caffeine!

debbatx · August 29, 2012, 01:17:29 PM

Ugh, I just spent some time on Etsy looking at ideas for party decorations for Reid's birthday. Everything had a massive spread of delicious-looking food. Now I want cupcakes. LOTS OF THEM.
