Bye Bye Work-Out!

Well, I overslept this morning, big time. As I was rushing through a short-cut morning routine, chopped my breakfast so I at least would get something nutricious in my body, I ran my foot against a chair. Cussing most child-friendly I slipped into the first shoes I came across in the hallway (black heels) and headed for the bus trying not to throw up from the pain.

Well, it went downward from there. The foot swell, I tried taking off the shoes under my desk, but it actually hurt more without the counterpressure in my shoes. I had to skip yoga class, and hobbled around the office for the rest of the days. I could not walk over to the vision store to order new lenses for my sunglasses, since summer has finally arrived full blast. I missed my bus because I could not hobble fast enough, and right now I decide that I'd rather stay put on the couch instead of walking down two flights of stairs to get myself some yummie ice cream.

To top off this Monday, our car battery died, and the car won't move a bit, yay!

On the plus side, I have an awesome neighbor, who works at a car shop and will order a new battery for us first thing tomorrow morning. And my wonderful hubby called off his orchestra practice tonight to take care of me and provides my mangled foot with ice packs. I'm a lucky girl!

I hope for a better Tuesday, and the foot'd be better like new by Saturday. We have our long-planned and once-postponed office outing hiking 6 or 7 miles to 5 different breweries and one distillery. If the foot still hurts, I will at least have the chance of some pain relieve of the grainy kind.

My training for the 10k this summer/fall, however, is on hold right now. But, I've decided on the run, the Erlangen Starnight Run in September, and I have a running mate. So: foot, HEAL!!

Have a great week, everyone!
