Tuesday

It has been a long Tuesday and with the week starting off as tiring as it has I am sure that the days to follow will be just as taxing. I am sitting in Tod's work office waiting for Oakly's Hockey Practice to finish so I can return home to go straight to bed! That thought puts a big smile on my face. :) I am not sure if my body is trying to tell me something or if I am really just being BLAH.
Yesterday afternoon my knee started hurting and today it was swollen. Dr. Tod has suggested that I take a few days off of running, but I am not sure that mentally I can do that. Running has turned into my 5:00am routine and I love it. I love the look I get from Tod when he comes around the corner and smiles at me, try es to ask me how far I have gone and how much farther I am pushing for for that day, it also makes me smile when he says you are really losing it. That is my biggest achievement right their. Not only do I love to run, but my Butt loves it too. I have struggled to loss what was left of Oakly, after 14 long years, and 2 more kids that added to the poundage, and WOW their I was! It was an issue for so many years that finally after 18 months of dedication to running, biking and kinda' watching what I ate, it is all falling off. No it is not all happening in an over night get skinny diet, but in the love of something that makes me feel so good. So back to the thought of taking a rest, well that just doesn't exist in my thoughts. So until my 5 am call I will just have to wait and see what the morning brings.
