So my "injury" was a little worse than I originally thought. It's been hurting non-stop since it happened, but since I've given up all self-medications (advil, tylenol, etc) I've just been sucking it up. The pain is worst when I stop walking and start again - but I think it's mostly from the wound trying to scab over.
It's also bigger than that photo leads one to believe but I went out tonight and bought some neosporin and large band aids which I hope will help more than the little ones I've been using.
I'm also hoping to get to the river early in the AM to get a run in before the anticipated rain tomorrow. If not, I guess I'll just do some laps in the gym (back to the scene of my fall). Either way I need to get back on my feet and keep going. :)
Excited about my new books. I bought a few of the Skinny Bitch books (the mom one and the journal) as well as In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto. I'm excited to read them all and maybe learn something new.
I watched "Couples Retreat" last night and I found it really hard to look at the "main family" in the story and feel strongly that I don't want my life to end up like that - eating crappy food and having the kids on sugar rushes 24/7. I want my kids to be as healthy as possible (I don't intend to restrict them from sweets totally but will not allow sweets on a daily basis) and keep them away from the tv as much as possible. I get so sad when I see children get "lost" in their tv and not going outside to play or enjoy themselves and get exercise.
Oh well. Sorry for the late night thoughts... I should get to sleep - it's almost 2am now! So much for planning on getting up at 9am!
I have a huge tube of Neosporin in my room :)
