So no long run. My blister is healing nicely but still a little squishy. Also, I came down with some nasty flu-like bug yesterday. Which is awesome because we leave tonight to drive through to MN. And hubby has a job interview this morning and works until we leave so I have to get everything packed and ready solo. My mom has offered to come up and help me and I think I'll need to take her up on that. I hurt all over.

Today is just finishing packing. My kids have a turkey trot at school but I'm definitely going to have to skip that. They also have a turkey feast that I was going to go to. I might still try to make that...we'll see.

I'm hoping to still check in with you guys while I'm on the road! we drive straight through the night tonight and stop in AR tomorrow. Have a great weekend everyone!

I knew I hadn't posted in a couple of days but didn't realize it had been nearly a week. This week has been crazy and I finally feel like I'm coming up for air. On top of being busy both at work and at home I haven't been sleeping well and my allergies have been awful.

Val that blister sounds awful. Ouch. Ironic you got it while trying to avoid blisters. Hope you start feeling better, and your drive isn't too miserable.

It's my rest day today. I'm leaving work a little early for a massage, then will come back to the office for a party/potluck. My 3.5 mile run went fine last weekend, I did 2.5 hot icky miles on the treadmill on Tuesday, and did 2 chilly miles outside last night (27F with a "feels like" temp of 8, and it was lightly snowing). Aiming for 4 miles tomorrow. It's going to be another cold one with a bit of a wind, so it will be a good opportunity to practice my layering techniques.

I posted a threadstarter yesterday then wasn't able to get to the forum last night--was v weird.

Doing okay, feel like I've stopped the bleeding with emotional eating.

Joined a weight loss challenge at work, trying to lose 1lb a week between now & mid-Jan.

Feel really fat & uncomfortable in my skin/clothes.

Hi all, realized i didnt check in yesterday. Spent day after walk hunting down a bookclub at libraries and book stores only to find out library doesnt organize them in this area and book store ones are closed.

So after being told i could use library bulletin board i have been working on flyer to start my own. Will have to meet in cafes or coffee shops until i get some living room furniture!

I am going to call it, Wine, women, and Wit Book Club. I made sure to say classical books so they would know its not social hour only, but heh maybe i will make some friends! I hope!

Going to walk different part of trail past pastures to pedestrian bridge over river.

Going out to healthy soup place tonight and jazz at wine bar.
