My Favorite Quote-   "When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." -Harriet Beecher Stowe

I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born.  I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.  My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

1/2 mile warm up, stretch.  3+ miles on the treadmill. Stretch, roll, abs, stretch.  No knee pain at all.  I am going to do at least three miles a day next week, so long as there is no pain.

My bum is still sore today, but not worse than last night.  I can't sit on a hard surface well, but the sofa is okee dokee. 

I must purge my house of all of the holiday crap.  Tomorrow is going to be far better than today, after all it has no mistakes in it yet ;D  I am very pooped out.  I don't do well with company at my house.  I really would like to have another day after tomorrow with nobody coming over.  I love my family and I love to have them over, but I can feel that I really need a day to just lounge around and now worry about anybody.  I've had migraines straight since Wednesday :(

Faking my way through :) There is no time to do anything about them. I slept in the car on the way home from my nephews baptisms today with my gator over my eyes to black out the light. I hope I can get some rest tomorrow so I can not have to deal with them for much longer. Our company leaves tomorrow, well half. I think David's parents are coming monday and tuesday. I love them dearly, but really need to not have anyone over. I really needed last week to be empty and void of all out of town guests. Am I a horrible person? I just love them all SO much and am SO glad to see them, I think I am just getting old and tired.

Teena- it's strangly addicting isn't it :) Hey, what is the kind of tape that you roll on top of the knee and below the knee?

You can buy it at Sports Authority, and several other places, as well. I think at Sports Authority you get two rolls for about $6.00.

Let me know how it goes if you try it.

And yes, SO ADDICTING!!! :)
