    I'm going to be doing miles for the week, fruits & veg, and water again this week. I know I'm not pushing the mounds of my normal comfortable routine much, but I need to get back to my normal stuff first. The last 5 weeks have been so wonky. :)

    I still have some sort of bronchial or sinus infection. So I am limited in what I can do workout-wise. I don't feel sick enough to go to the doctor, but I don't feel well enough to do a hearty workout. *sigh*
