After about the fourth time of explaining what the options were and she wasn't willing to do any of them, I gave euthanasia as an option. She was not thrilled.
LOL you did the right thing Dean. My patience is evaporating with time as well. What is a nerf ball? this sounds greek to me
@Janet How did your half Marathon go??
Did a few more runs and I'm at 51/60 for April. It has taken me 7.5 hours overall. It never stops amazing me how some people are always at the track every single time I go there and how fast they are lapping me.

THANKS FOR THE ASSIST WITH THE UPDATE, JANET!!! :flowerforyou:
CONGRATS on making GOAL to @PLANJ!! :drinker:
@SUFFERLANDRIAN - Thanks, I appreciate it. I know in the grand scheme of things, you guys will be okay if I don't update. I just dislike forgetting it. I like to give you all a certain level of service.
@DINO - A nerf ball is one of those toy balls made out of a ultra-light foam. It's made so no matter how hard a kid can throw it, it will never hurt when it hits their brother or sister in the face. They'll just laugh it off instead of running crying to their mother. Nerf bullets (darts really), on the other hand, are a little less soft, but still don't usually hurt unless you take one square in the eyeball. My two boys while growing up must've owned every Nerf gun they ever made and the floors in every room of the house had Nerf bullets scattered about.
Managed to get some sleep last night and even got up eventually for a short workout at the gym!

Sore as heck from a lot of lunges in Boot Camp Monday and lifting and more lunges with my trainer yesterday (who also teaches the Boot Camp). I make a noise every time I sit down or get up. Didn't feel like skipping the gym today since I knew today was a stuck to the desk workday so I walked 3 miles on the treadmill. Boring but I went to work with over 7000 steps. Texted the trainer that today was a little less sore and I wasn't taking her name in vain every time I moved.
Took the plunge and just purchased the materials to get certified as a group fitness instructor. I've been realizing how much I love all this fitness/gym/nutrition stuff and coupled with this new job i don't like much and don't want to do until I'm ready to retire, as well as some words of encouragement from my trainer and dietitian, made me decide to see if this is something I can do, even part time. I'm also interested in health coach and possibly personal trainer, but figured this is a good place to start.
TL;DR for the mods - 3 miles please

I desperately need to get tothe gym for some strength training. If someone bumps me, my knees are going to give out and I am going down...so Dean....I may not make through the last 40 plus days.
A nerf ball does hurt if it in the face with it. I can attest to that although it’s not playground balls like we were pelted with years ago.
Janet...love the choice of new vet....lol
Dave and Janet....the fact that you bother to do this job is amazing. Send me a private message with your address and I will send you both gift cards. I so appreciate what you both do here.

Now boarding the GOAL train are @BELLE_74, @GRANDMAJACKIE and @LOVEMYALEX!!! :drinker:
@KAR328 - That is wonderful that you are considering pursuing taking up something in a fitness-related vein! You have come so far and I would think it would be such a rewarding endeavor for you.
@CLEPANT - Awww, that is SO thoughtful and I appreciate the gesture, but I couldn't possibly accept anything for doing this. I enjoy being able to provide this "service" to all of you. I know it is appreciated and I'm thankful for that as well! :flowerforyou:
