I like to Move It, Move It

It's been pretty quiet around our house. Chad's been hopped up on pain killers and hasn't left the bed much. I've been trying to keep him comfortable, keep his meds coming, and pack his lovely wound. It's a good thing Dr. E could show me the ropes, otherwise I don't know if I could have handled the grossness. Because it's gross.

Moving on from my husbands open, gaping wound...

And on to my back. Yikes. I'll spare you the rambling and lists of complaints and just say that I think that the solution is to work out and stretch, stretch, stretch. And then stretch some more. Along with heat and ice (thank you again Dr. E). If you haven't noticed, Dr. E has been saving us lately.

So because I need the daily exercise for multiple reasons I figured that this was in order:

12	Rest	2 miles	20 minutes	Rest	20 minutes	13.1!!!	Rest	15.1 + 40 min

Have I signed up for a race? Um... no. Mostly because I don't want to shell out a bunch of money and partly because there really aren't any races near here until we get closer to the fall and the sun isn't trying to bake us alive. Until I find something I'll just have to let my back and the shooting pain into my leg be my motivator. Hopefully by the time Chad's healed up I'll be able to keep up better with him and he can just jump into the plan with me!

Wish me luck peeps :)
