4 hills again.  I was going good, feeling great, when some not very nice person decided to use the round about as a freaking acceleration ramp and also decided NOT to yeild to the pedestrian in the designated crossing area and almost killed me.  I literally stopped in time before this meany black car (without headlights on) went flighing in front of me.  I was looking both ways.  I did NOT see him.  I did see another guy coming, but he was slowing down, allowing me to pass.  I don't know how I could make myself more visiable.  I was wearing a flashing light, reflective vest.  goodness!  I was so mad.... and then so sick from the whole event, I decided I better get home and give my husband a big hug before I do anything stupid again.  *sigh*

This one is for Mike. 

Tuesday I ran accross the grocery store parking lot (to get to my car asap after returning my cart.  Melanie was in there and I didn't want anything bad to happen to her (and with the heat here, that includes toasted Melanies)).  anyhow, I got hit on by the biggest red neck who made sure to tell me, between drags and looking me up, that he "liked watch'n me run" and that I was "purrrty".  Gross.

The truth is, I didn't run on Tuesday because I spent all night making goodies and bread for a good friend that is in the hospital and will be in the hospital for a few more weeks.

Wednesday I didn't run because Melanie came home from day care with a 102 degree temp.  She has been throwing up and been just miserable.  And when that happens, she wants mommy.  So, mommy laid with her and read some books...  snuggled... oh, and got throw up all over her. Lovely.  But...  I'm mom, so I wouldn't change that for anything.

I did an exercize video...  20 min salsa, 20 min yoga, and stretching.  The instructor called me sexy  or 7 times during the salsa...  she must be able to see me through the t.v. LOL

Poor Ms. Melanie is still not feeling good.

My "saucy" salsa and yoga video...  :o)  Feeling pretty good about myself right now, but that could be because the instructor kept calling me sexy. :o)

Melanie is still sick, but I'm feeling better today than yesterday.  Yesterday I inherited a fever and achiness.  I drank a TON of water and G2 and tried to rest as much as I could (most of it with my sick daughter laying against my chest).  Hopefully that worked.
