Well, it has been a rocky two days. I found out on Tuesday that my friend and naturopath was killed in an avalanche over the weekend. It has really thrown me for a loop. She was one of the kindest and beautiful souls I've ever met. Truly a healer.
I also took my MIL back to the airport yesterday. That was bittersweet. 5 days was maybe too long. Towards the end, we all started getting on each other's nerves. I worked from home yesterday afternoon and just loved the quiet of my house. No TV, just two sweet puppies trying to snuggle on top of my laptop. I really needed that.
Tomorrow is my 43rd birthday!!! I'm going to have another major chill out day. I'm going to the spa for pampering and lunch. Going to bring a great book to relax with. No one is allowed to go with me, it's just going to be me all by myself. And then Friday, Phil and I are going to go to Seattle to ride the Great Wheel. I've been wanting to do that since the durn thing opened, but now I get the chance. Totally stoked.
This week (thus far) is going good with regards to weight loss. Yesterday I took my first run since my soccer game (ankle started hurting again)and it was a good run. I used kinesio tape to tape up my Achilles. I think I'm going to also tape up for fasciitis as the bottom of my foot was a bit tender afterwards. The tape helped stabilize my ankle. I did a 3.5 mile loop around a park. I think that if I'm going to do longer runs, there's another loop I can easily add on that will take it another 2 miles. So, total loop would be about 5.5 miles. I'm joining another challenge to run a 10K.
And the sad thing is that I don't think I can play soccer until my ankle is fully healed. I thought it was, but with all that starting and stopping and twisting, I'm just not going to be able to play this season. Plus, I want to focus on running right now, which I love dearly. And running is pretty much free...
