One of Those Days...
So, post 16-mile run on Saturday, I was feeling some pain. I thought it was my hip, then later it seemed to be my ITB. But I did some foam-rolling last night, and surprisingly woke-up feeling good. There was no snow or ice left and Lily didn't have nasty goopy eyes, so finally, after a week off, my kids could go to school, and I could hit the gym. I was dressed and ready to head to the gym for my 3-mile run followed by my chicken-wing workout class. Emily was ready to meet me. I woke Paige up last minute and let out a loud sign of disappointment. Goopy, nasty eyes. Round 2 of viral conjunctivitis. Fun times. So I'm stuck in again. Today, I accepted that maybe an extra day of rest would do my body good after pushing what was probably a bit too long on Saturday... but I'm sure her eye won't be better by tomorrow... which means it's time for the home treadmill and a DVD. Not fun. I am ready to be done, go grocery shopping and go to the gym and take my kids to school like a normal person. I thrive on habit and schedule and when it's off, so is my mood. My poor kids and their grumpy mommy!!!

Oh no! I know what you mean about having a schedule. I'm the same way. Hope you're back to yours soon!
Oh sorry... we have the flu going round and round my kids and it is just miserable. Find something good to watch while you run on your home treadmill... it helps a little. Hope your kids are better and you can get back on schedule SOON.

I totally sympathize! Between snow, ice, holiday, and illness, I haven't had a "normal week" since sometime in early December. I've been thankful for the home treadmill option more than once.
Poor Paige. She's so cute in her ears .... even if she has goopy eyes! I think it is a sign that you are supposed to take a day to let your body relax anyway, so there! ;) Enjoy it!!
UGH!! :( I hope things get better soon!!!
Oh gosh I'm sorry to hear that! Hope the conjunctivitis heals up quick!
aaaaaaaaaaaaack. feel better! my schedule has been all over the place lately and man, it's definitely throwing me off too!
Well, that's good that your leg was feeling better than the other day, but sorry you didn't get back to the gym today. Hopefully Paige is feeling better with clear eyes soon! For all of your sakes!
Stink! Hope everyone feels better very soon!! But, I do think another day of rest was good for your body.
Sorry to hear you are still stuck. Hope everything and everyone will be well soon. I always take these day life throw at us as extra rest days.
I am such a schedule person so I definitely feel your pain!!! I hope life gets back on track soon!
That stinks! I hope everyone feels better soon so you can get back to your schedule.
