    You see Dave, it's not that we are trying to be your mother. It's that we would really miss you if something happened and let's face it. You and I are reaching the age where things break. :smile:
    Dean...I completely understand and I appreciate your input and concern. You'll be happy to know that I heeded your advice and sucked it up and made an appointment for this afternoon. :smile: :drinker:

    And adding on after seeing the rest of the posts...thank you so much for the care from the rest of you too! I really do appreciate it. :flowerforyou:

    Finally had a day I could get out of the house more than once. Almost stepped on a chipmunk on my morning walk yesterday. I surprised a mom and her baby and while mom took off, the baby froze right in front of my foot. I stopped and it finally realized that it should run. :D

    Went out again after dinner with my hubby. I didn't realize at the time he wanted to take the long way, so I was really tired when I got back. I did sleep well though. :)

    Added 6.25 miles yesterday. May total 61.5 miles.

    I was planning on a long walk along the bike trail today, but the grey skies are worrying me. I wonder if I can find a raincoat just in case?

    Added 0.92 in a walk yesterday (I'm sure with all the walking around my yard, doing gardening, etc., that I was over a mile, but I'm not going to count that).

    MTD: 31.92

    I plan to spin at lunch today, so that should get me *almost* to green.

    5.1 miles walk today, one of those at work this morning. My tickerfactory isn't letting me copy the url for some reason so it's 68.2 miles total.

    @Dave - glad you came to your senses before I had to channel BadA$$ Nurse Karen (she came out a lot this weekend and needs a nap).

    I got 17 in on the bike today. It was a brutal ride!!!

    MTD: 48.92 - almost back to green.... sooooo close!

    @Dave - I thought you were getting better :( I'm sad to hear that's not the case. Please let us know what your doctor says. I truly hope it is a "nothing we can do, go home, rest and drink lots of fluids" thing that you pay $240 for, and not something more serious!

    Dave what did the doctor have to say?

    We didn't get Bean until later this morning, so I went out by myself for 4.5 miles in 64 minutes then DH and I took Bean on a long walk to four different parks! It was sunny and breezy. Nice.

    Mon - 12.66

    You see Dave, it's not that we are trying to be your mother. It's that we would really miss you if something happened and let's face it. You and I are reaching the age where things break. :smile:
    Dean...I completely understand and I appreciate your input and concern. You'll be happy to know that I heeded your advice and sucked it up and made an appointment for this afternoon. :smile: :drinker:

    And adding on after seeing the rest of the posts...thank you so much for the care from the rest of you too! I really do appreciate it. :flowerforyou:

    Dave

    @Dave - Thanks Dave. That does make me feel better. I'd really like to have you around for years to come on this sight. You're enthusiasm and cheerful attitude really do help motivate people and make their lives better. Every once in awhile someone comes along that is an inspiration to others. They aren't out there yelling or selling. They just be who they are and it inspires others. You are one of those people. Here's to a quick recovery and hoping you get to come back and tell us all, "I told you so!" :smile:

    @Dave- Hope your doc gave you an easy resolution to your problem!


    I got in 10 before work again this morning & that will probably be it for the day cuz I am cleaning for my bachelor friend "after" work today. Plus I take my 3 furries for their hair cuts!

    Well I did finally drag myself out to the bike path, scary grey skies and all, and I'm really glad I did. It was great to have a day that I could walk, sit and watch the scenery, read, and walk some more and not worry about what time I needed to get back to "real" life. A much need mental health break. :) And it only drizzled a couple of times, not even enough to feel damp.

    Added 7.25 miles. May total 68.75 miles. :D

    @Leanz Oh that sounds so wonderful. I'm glad you enjoyed the travel and the chance to run in so many different places.

    @hkristine1 You are doing fantastic catching up! I'm sure you will find green soon.

    @Dave Let us know how you are doing. And if there is anything we can do to help from here.

    Thank you SO much for the kind words, Dean. I truly do appreciate them. I'm really glad I listened to you because now...here's where I get to say, "YOU told me so." :smile: I frequently am one to dismiss just about any symptoms and try to take care of them by myself and internally scoff when someone says "You should go see a doctor" over a cough or an ache...but you, Dean, said just the right things to snap me out of my eternal stubbornness. :smiley: I went to my appointment and the doctor did an exam and I had an EKG which came back normal, then a chest x-ray which also came back clear, but the doc didn't want to just send me home with nothing while still having trouble breathing so he sent me to another facility for a chest CT scan which clearly identified a large blood clot in my lung that I've been carrying around for who knows how long! At least 3-4 weeks. So it's a really good thing I went in when I did because I was a potential ticking bomb waiting to go off. I see him again in about an hour to get started on blood thinners for however long he says. Probably a few months, maybe for good.

    But thanks again, Dean. I owe ya big on this one. :blush: And this one time I won't mind if you send me a bill. :laugh:
