Quick Recap in case you missed it: I have a mysterious pain in my right foot. It’s the top of my foot, in line with my big toe. All indicators suggest a stress fracture, but my doctor took X-rays and told me it’s “fine.” So I spent about 10 days off of it “resting” and I now have a handy prescription for Motrin. Fast forward to this week. Motrin doesn’t do squat for the pain in my foot and it’s not going away. This is where I really want...
I called my family doctor yesterday to find out the results of my foot x-rays. Turns out I DO NOT have a stress fracture! **HAPPY DANCE** Of course they have no idea what is wrong with my foot and I should just try to “rest” it. Um…yeah. Okay. Not. Don’t they know I have a 60 mile walk to train for? I must Keep Going®! They did call me in a prescription, but it was only for Motrin. I don’t know about you, but Motrin doesn’t do much for...
If you did not come, then you missed out! We had a table full of goodies. I thought we would not have enough, but we ended up with a ton of leftovers. People are seriously amazing and even though they may not have wanted a baked good, they would still drop, $5, $10 or sometimes $20 into our donation bucket. My favorite people that came through was a fire fighting team from Sacramento. I’m not sure why they were down here since we don’t currently have any fires….? I...
I mentioned the excruciating pain that I have been having in my foot the other day. Went to the doctor today. More than likely, I have a stress fracture. I tried calling my OB/GYN office two days in a row to find out about scheduling a biopsy for my “tooma” (It’s not a tooma). They have yet to receive my radiology report from the breast ultrasound I had on Tuesday. *sigh* I’m feeling a little lost right now. On one hand. I really want to cry. My foot hurts. ...
I took on the daunting task of training for the 3 Day for the Cure® hoping that it would be a great way for me to lose weight, get healthy and also fight for an important cause. I have been preparing. I have been walking. I have been trying to learn all that I can so that I can do this successfully. It’s not been as easy as I thought it would be. I am overweight, so even walking has been hard. I am having problems with my knee. ...
The New Balance Cheerleaders at the Boston 3 Day Walk! Photo: Susan G. Komen3-Day for the Cure Facebook Page I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me to share the spectator and cheering information with you for the previous walks. But if you are not participating as a walker in the Susan G Komen 3 Day for the Cure®, then you should at least head down and cheer the walkers on! Most (if not all) walkers have dedicated several months of their life to prepare for walking 60...
I’m (obviously) a blogger. And like so many other bloggers out there, I am in a constant state of searching for the perfect blog theme (or template). If you’ve hung around here any time at all, you will already know that I change my templates…often. And once upon a time (towards the beginning of my blogging career) I sported a StudioPress theme. “Lifestyle” to be exact. StudioPress is very popular with bloggers and you can see their beautiful WordPress themes throughout the blogosphere. The CEO of StudioPress is Brian...
