really thinking I can never take hormone replacement.  Very emotional and sad outlook on life. Third day on estrogen (yesterday was third dose) and I am a wreck.  Got pulled over on my way to the Dr. for speeding.  Sadly I recall just barely deciding to pick up my speed...and then there was a stoplight anyway so not sure why I did? Only to get pulled over.  So called Dr. office and cancelled appt.  Do not need two big bills right now.  Just need to be off estrogen right now.  Roller coaster day in moods.  Didn't take it today.  AP 7:55 and shoes did not feel comfortable at all on my joints.  Disappointing.  Still looking for perfect shoe.  :D.  First mile 9:13.  Last mile 7:12.   Ran on Murdock canal from 1100 north and went south four miles...which is just crossing over into Orem a 1/4 mile from 1600 north.
