I’m Here!

I was having a lot of difficulty figuring out what to write today.  I had a great time in Calgary.  It was a wonderful trip.. eating was decent, I managed to exercise too.  We came back last night and went to my Mom’s house for dinner.  Then we came home and tidied up, unpacked, put the kids to bed, and I went and did some late night groceries.  When I got back we watched Prison Break on demand, and went to bed really late since we were on Calgary time.

Then at 4am little Miss Safi started vomiting in her sleep. It was so scary.  Both me and DH were really freaked out because it was so thick she could of easily choked on it.   A million times I have felt bad that I let her sleep in our bed with us, but last night I was so so so thankful that I do.

So it was a rough night, with a couple more vomitting incidents.  Both her and I slept in, and she is back to herself today. Thank God!  I hope Yumna doesn’t catch this.. it is horrible.  I’ve been having some stomach problems since Friday and I think maybe this is her body’s way of dealing with the same virus.

So today’s weigh in was at 181.. which means I lost 1.4 lbs in the last 10 days.. I am sure some of that is attributed to the many many visits I’ve been making to the bathroom as a result of this virus.. but either way, I’ll take it!

Oh and I have to tell you that while I was in Calgary I RAN for the first time in my life!   I did some interval running on the treadmill.. and I managed to run/walk for 22 minutes.  Then I started getting the shin splints and a stitch in my side.. which made me think I should really get good running shoes and drink lots of water before running.  But I am going to do this.. I am really excited.. I did far far better than I expected to.  Mind you I don’t really expect a lot from myself in this department.  But yah for me!  And Fat Pants, I was thinking about how I have to tell you the whole time I was doing it!

    Hi!

    i have been having such a hard time finding your blog…you would think all these years of using computers would have taught me something, but the simple tasks often defy me.

    I’m glad your urpiness is almost gone. Don’t you wish we all recovered as quickly as the kids?

    And running. Phew. There’s nothing quite like it eh?

    Soon!

  4. Fat Pants, I guess I should clarify.. that was the first time I ran because I chose to.. I mean I have run in gym class and cursing my evil gym teacher the whole time.
