no more wire hangers!
and no more daytime running. UGH! What a HORRIBLE run today. It was hot, it was muggy, I felt like a brick with concrete legs trying to run thru jello. Did my four miles and went inside to do some abs and stretching.
The smartest thing I did, tho, was brining some fresh strawberries with me to eat right after I came in from the run... they may well have been the very best strawberries I've ever had ever.
Thank GOD it's supposed to rain tomorrow.
In other news... well... there isn't much other news. I'm still not recording my food, but I really don't feel the need to right now. I'm eating pretty well and keeping track on paper rather than online which right now is just easier to do. I also decided that my 2 miles on wednesday will be done on the precor from now on to protect my knees... I just don't think that running 3 days in a row (even tho the middle day is only 2 miles) is doing me any favors... so that's where its at.
oh, and as a little aside.... ACK!!!! MY BABY STARTS FIRST GRADE IN 6 (that's SIX!!!) DAYS!!!! NO NO NO NO!!!
Ok... must practice letting go... its ok... he will be fine... all will be well... he will succeed... (can you hear me trembling in fear and anticipation???)

He'll be fine, moma! You, on the other hand ... it'll be hard. I know. I was there last year. Although this year was hard, too, even though he started second grade. *sigh* I wonder if it *ever* gets easy.
Wanna know the part about this school year that really made my jaw drop? When the daughter's teacher opened up the discussion straight off the bat with, "Pat yourselves on the back. You're halfway there. Only six more years of school for you."
Let me tell you ... until that moment, I hadn't thought of it *THAT* way. Ever since then, I fight the urge to cry every day I take her to school.
Ok. I'm done now. Sorry 'bout that.
Take care of those knees, dear. *Hugs*

bad luck with the knees. precor a good idea. I'm in the same posish & I feel for ya. it's gutting to climb onto a machine in an enclosed room for cardio kicks, when the great outdoors is calling, calling.
I'm staggered at those spammer chappies, & kind of in awe at their, well, cleverness. altho obviously it's a huge pain 4 u.
