Went walking for the first time in months with Lindsay, Vanessa, & Heidi. My trusty blister "squirt" decided to show up for the occasion too!
I don't know how to express how good it felt to finally have a day where my energy level felt like it was back to normal! It has been so frustrating wanting to do what used to be no big deal, to plan on doing it, only to find that by 3pm I can hardly think straight because the extreme exhaustion has set in. Most nights I drive home from work and pass out on the couch while trying to muster up enough energy to get up and check things off my to-do list...
I'm sure friends are sick of my backing out at the last minute but I hope they understand that I just can't do it. I really want to be out there with them doing things that were normal for me once upon a time. I hope that in 6mos my energy returns and training next year will be no big deal...
Ha! Squirt, love his name. Maybe next time we walk he can meet BOB (Big Old Blister). As everything does, BOB is aging so he might be a callus by the time we walk again. For some reason it’s not very appealing to name a callus. :)
ReplyDeleteYou must ask Lindsay about Squirt - he first showed up during 3 Day 2007!
