School & spiders... what a combo!
Was the first day back to school here for 3 of my munchkins. My middle 3 work from home so I act as teacher/learning coach for them. My youngest is autistic & will be going to special classes at the local school. He's going through evaluations now. I think we started off fairly well; despite having to chase down & distract my youngest all day.
Suppose to storm heavily tonight, so I woke up early and walked 3 miles. If I get lucky, I'll be able to walk a couple more miles tonight. If not, at least I'll feel good about getting some walking in.
I mentioned the other day that my leg has been cramping up fairly steadily. It just doesn't want to go away. My dh keeps trying to use it as an excuse to make me stop working out & walking, but I'm feeling stubborn this week. I want to lose weight! So, this morning I started walking and realized that my leg was feeling pretty good! Once I was warmed up, it wasn't aching; just had a little residule twinge -very minor. I was happy! Had a good stride going when I walked right into a strand of spider web... UGH!!!! I HATE spiders! Started trying to brush it off when I caught sight of the spider dangling in the air & dropping straight for MY shoulder! OMG! I hoped sideways and tried to run only to have my leg decide nope! It didn't like that sudden movement and tried to buckle on me. Barely avoided doing a faceplant & was hopping around awkwardly on one leg trying to regain my balance. wow! It hurt so much & I was feeling so stupid for being afraid of a spider. Was halfway through my walk so I had to suck it up and keep going.
It's feeling better tonight but when I was at Curves, I avoided the leg press. I am going to attempt walking some tonight, but I think I'll stick to my block and cut it short -that's IF it's not storming too much.
Anyway, hope your week started off right. Best wishes! 



Hopefully it gets to feeling better quickly!
