Today I got a callus…HOORAY; my first in a few months!  Ah, it’s the little things in life that make me happy.  My body is sore from working out…it’s wonderful.  We started doing burpees again this week…hmmm…yup one of those bittersweet moments.  My back held up real well this week; it was sore, but that was from the chiropractor not the workouts.  The only thing I feel tightening up that could be a problem is my hamstrings so I have my lacrosse ball and a foam roller that will never be very far from me for a while.  I’m also looking forward to starting Saturday workouts this weekend with Mark…he is a funny little man.  I’ve been putting a little bit of thought into registering for another race; I’m just not sure when I’ll be well enough to really start training for a run.  I do believe it will be very soon though.
I was disappointed when I contacted the doctor to check status on my blood work...only half of the results are in.  HOWEVER, he did tell me we can schedule an appointment for next week to come up with a “care plan”.  I’m curious to hear all about it.  From what I do know, we will clean up my diet then re-introduce different foods to see how I react to them.  The process only takes about 2 weeks I believe…I hope anyway.  Then based on everything else he will determine additional supplements needed. By the time all is said and done, I will end up on a strict Paleo regimen, which is back to where I started and it has always been what’s best for me.  This time I will have more knowledge about how my body reacts to the foods.  I really can’t wait to hear about the Saliva test.  I was telling my chiropractor about it, he was so excited that I was having this test done.  He said that the saliva will give him more information about my hormones then anything.  Who would have ever thought? NOT ME!
It was a busy day today, non-stop since I woke up.  Headed to work at 8, left work at 9:45 to go to Sam’s Club to shop for our Christmas party at work, shopped, unloaded, put everything away, ate lunch at my desk, worked out, then decorated the lunchroom for the Holiday lunch tomorrow.  Tomorrow will be crazy as well but it will be a great day, just as today was.
Today I am so thankful to God and praise Him for the wonderful people he has blessed me with.  I truly have an amazing husband, the sweetest boys, a wonderful family, and amazing friends who can have those tough conversations with me so I can become a better person.
