Head, Shoulders, Knees & Toes (and heels)

Good morning all you studmuffins out there.  Thank you all so much for the suggestions and sympathies in my last post.  I will be trying all of them (probably even the goofy looking sock. LOL).  My apologies to Catherine for mis-stating her foot issue...  Update:  My heel still hurts.  Feels fine in high heel shoes but tennis shoes, flats or barefoot aren't so good.  My first order of business tomorrow is buying a new pair of running/walking shoes.  A pair that is supposed to help with this kind of thing.  I am still going to attempt my double header this weekend.  That's 12 miles on Saturday and 10 miles on Sunday.  I only have 3 weekends until the breast cancer walk.  Next weekend is no good for my training partner and to be perfectly honest, I don't think I can do 2 in a row without her.  The weekend after that is the last weekend before the walk and we both agreed a weekend off was in order before the big event.  So it's this weekend or no weekend.  I'm going to suck it up and do my best.  Wish me luck.

In other news, hubby got back from La La Land yesterday.  He seems genuinely happy to be home and I'm really happy to have him home.  It's just not the same around the house when he isn't there.  I need someone around to laugh at my stupid jokes and I just don't sleep as well without him there.  So happy he's here.

What else?  Not much to report in bandland I'm afraid.  Weight is holding steady.  I'm not eating fantastic but I'm not doing too badly either.  I have packed a healthy lunch for today so feel good about that.  Since I'm not working out this week, I'm trying to pay extra attention to my food choices.  Honestly, I can't wait until my next fill so I can actually feel this band doing something. 

Since this post is beyond dull, I'll give you a Thursday laugh...

Digging your attitude in setting the bar high; 12 miles on Saturday and 10 miles on Sunday. That is no small task. look forward to cheering you on... have a great weekend!
