Isn't it funny how you just feel AWFUL after eating too much salt? Holy smokes, I try to stay under 2000mg (which rarely happens) and yesterday I made turkey tacos and BAM 3200mg! I am so bloated and my lips are prickly, my rings don't fit....sheesh....I probably over-shot on the servings I recorded but I can feel that extra salt regardless. I'll be drinking my life away for the rest of the day!!! Oh, that rhymed haha :)

So two stories about my morning:

Story #1, funny: Since it was POURING this morning here I decided I should probably take the flag in like a good American. So I had no shoes on, shorts, and a t-shirt. I opened the storm door planning on just running out there the 2 feet to our stand, grabbing it, and running back in. READY, SET, GO!!! I ran out, grabbed it, ran back to the door...I tried once, twice, three times...OMG THE DOOR WON'T OPEN…OMG IT’S FREAKING MONSOONING...OMG IT'S 39 DEGREES OUT AND I'M IN MY PJs!!! The inside handle was too far over behind the jamb, so it kept hitting it so it just WOULD NOT OPEN! So I run, in the monsoon, no shoes, in my PJs, through our semi-flooded, semi-icy yard, flag flying behind me, to our garage. What a sight I'm sure! LUCKILY, we have a keypad so I could just type in the code....which I had to enter twice because my fingers were so cold I hit the wrong button the first time!! The door CREEEEEEEPED up, OMG HURRY UP...can't wait, so I barrel-rolled underneath...still carrying that flag!!UGH!!!

Story #2, not funny: Right before I got into the shower (after all this flag business) I heard a big BOOM!! I walked out of the bathroom, wrapped in a towel thinking the dogs did something. Nope, they’re just laying on their dog beds in the bedroom. So I got in the shower….as I got out, I heard sirens….not abnormal since we live across from a hospital. Then I heard more sirens…hmmmmm odd….must be a car wreck since the weather’s so crappy. So I go about my business, let the dogs out before I leave….and the WHOLE town is full of smoke. I mean, at first I thought it was super foggy cause of the weather, but then I smelled it. It was so strong that I walked all the way around the house, into the basement, into every room, thinking our house HAD to be on fire because the smell was so strong. Couldn’t find anything, then I looked out the window because I heard more sirens…a fire truck heading south, which just happens to be my way to work. So I got in my car and as I’m headed around the corner to get to the interstate I saw flames SHOOTING up into the air over the tops of the trees along the road. I have never seen such a big fire, it was insane! All you could see were flames and black smoke! One of the houses in this tiny little subdivision was fully engulfed with flames literally shooting everywhere…just crazy! I really hope everyone is ok! With how windy it was this morning I just don't know how they would have kept it contained! Scary stuff!

***And completely unrelated, I am craving bacon so hard right now!

Well, that's my official addition post-Easter/post-parents up for the weekend....I need to do better, once you starting eating the sweets it's so hard to stop and I need to stop!

So, what's up with me? I re-tweaked my back a bit so I haven't been doing much of anything exercise-wise...it's much better now but it makes me nervous. My 10k is in less than a month, haven't been running per my doctor, she said I have at least one more week to rest so I'll be pushing my luck. Afraid to overdue it though! Backs and knees aren't to be messed with!

Work is okay, busy...which is actually good, we were soooooo painfully slow that I dreaded showing up, I hate being bored! We had a bit of an explosion in an oven so that added some excitement but not the good kind lol

House is coming together nicely, we both really are starting to enjoy it. While it's big, we are doing pretty good to make it "home-y"....our dogs LOVE it, so much room for them to run around. And eat my rugs....turds.

Sorry I haven't been writing, so busy!! But I've been trying to keep up with all of you, hope I haven't missed anything good!!! :)
