Saturday was the race day and rehearsal night. It started off pretty good. I made sure I stretched out that morning and took a quick walk to wake up my muscles. I'm glad I did because I ended up needing those muscles that day. When we got to the coarse, we were faced with a mile walk from the parking to the race. My future mother in law can't walk too well and complained a lot all the way to the area. I walked with her and was sure glad I had been preparing for this race for six months. I knew ...

I have been resting all day and not even washing clothes or or unpacking much today. The dog and I have been enjoying sitting in each others company catching up on a few missed tv shows and NOT seeing any rain today.

And yes, I actually had to have a piece of wedding cake ( grooms cake because it was choco...

What a trip I just had ! It was a wild four nights and five days in Michigan as P and I married off our daughter. I have many travel and food stories to tell.

Which turned out to be over five or so miles within a two day period !...Tuesday, July 29th 2008

My doc is taking me off one of the diabetes meds because I was having a lot of lows. I will test my BG every two hours and see how I do today.

Ok I put a new photo up of me on the member page and it's on the member page but it didn't show up on my blog. What gives ? This is the third time this has happened to me.

Every time I write CK and they tell me to try and refresh my sight. That doesn't seem to work. Since it is Sunday I am going to give it a day and see if it takes a while for that photo to show up. My after photo showed up immediately. All I can say is photos and CK and I don't seem to get along. GRRR ! Now you know why I ...
