It's such a beautiful morning again, perfect morning to get out for a short run before sitting at this computer working all day. What a great idea. Not. I'm trying to be the smart one here. My heart is telling me to run, but my head is saying no, there is a little soreness in the foot, keep resting it. Don't make it worse. It will take time to heal.
In the meantime, I've been trying to focus on other ways to move a little. Need to move. Sitting in this computer chair all day is really rough. My back and legs are so stiff. So I've been trying to get out in the garden at night. Accomplishes two things, gives me the opportunity to move and stretch AND I'm getting the garden cleaned up at the same time!
The vegetable garden is all tilled and ready. In fact, just waiting for the tomato and cucumber plants. Swiss chard and green beans are already planted, lima beans go in this weekend along with the tomato and cucumber plants. Actually, two tomato plants already in, courtesy of my a gift from my wonderful neighbor. We made the veggie garden "a little" bigger this year too. CAN YOU TELL I LOVE THE GARDEN THIS TIME OF YEAR? That will be another post.
After gardening for an hour and a half last night, we decided to treat ourselves and go for ice cream. Problem was I didn't want the regular fat-free sugar-free. I wanted good old ice cream. I got it. I enjoyed it. I tracked it. Now to make sure I get some activity in today. Maybe skating, maybe more gardening. As long as I move every day, I'll be okay on the days I can't run.
