It’s been a hot minute since I last wrote. I think I even said I was nearing the end. However, I forgot to turn off my auto renewal. So…here we are a few more months. Winter has been rough. Finally feel spring in the air. Feeling anew with the new year. The past couple days …
“It’s hot, Don” is legit. For my readers who don’t know me this was a slogan for so many years made by a local car lot owner during the hottest times of summer. It was catchy, to say the least. And so catchy folks still say it today. Ahem….me. Today was no exception. I wasn’t …
Summer is here…and I’m loving it. Give me the heat and humidity. It makes me want to be out more, but it also makes me miss running. Ugh..I digress. This blog is a wrap up of my week. I felt this week was a nice break to insanity lately. Monday I jumped out to walk …
I traveled for work again and I nearly felt all my hard work two weeks prior were wasted. I immediately got back at walking again the day after I got home. Diet is coming back slowly. Eating right while stuck in an airport or living in a hotel is quite difficult. And yet here I …
I'm trying to be more conscious in writing again. I received a sign and dang it...here I am. I made it to Friday. Hallelujah! Since I last wrote I talked about getting back into walking again because my weight is up and motivation has been down. I have been working so many hours since last …
I did not realize I haven't written in over a month. I am way behind. I have full intentions to do so in my mind, but work is super busy. By the time I get around to it, I'm a tad exhausted. Yep....I'm full of excuses. I'm so glad to be back at work. I …
I’m not into the ‘new year, new me’ saying. It’s still me; but I just need to do better. Who doesn’t? I didn’t do the elliptical for a week. I knew I had a big event a few days ago that would test my walking abilities so I made sure I rested my new hip …
I’ll soon be six weeks post op. I had to humble myself and ask for something for sleep. Since surgery, I have been slept a total of four hours each night. There is no comfortable position and I feel every movement, which keeps me awake. My surgeon suggested different things to where I’m learning to …
Today is four weeks since my hip was replaced. The first two weeks were pure hell. I cannot and will not sugar coat it. I got tired of people telling me hip is easier than knee. They aren’t me. From someone who was an avid runner and never stopped, this was excruciatingly difficult. The pain …
It has taken me a week to finally decide to talk about this. People tell me hip replacement isn’t as bad as knee replacement. STFU. It’s still a major joint. Quit fbombing downplaying it. I can handle pain. I refused all pain meds prior to surgery and pushed through. This pain was unbearable. For two …
