<p>Good Morning,</p>
<p> Early start to my day since I have work to do for 'work-work'.  Gotta coach girls soccer for about 90 minutes this morning and then back to work after that for a little while longer.  Then I can sit back and watch the boilermakers play the Middle Tennessee state Blue raiders or something like that.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I don't know if mentioned it here or not,  but I have been plagued by heel pain for most of the summer so I finally made an appointment with my doctor since I was overdue for my physical.  Due to teh location of the pain he said it probably wasnt plantars or any kind of an achilles tendon issue so he ordered x-rays since he thought it could be a stress fracture. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Well he got the results of the x-ray yesterday and no stress fracture.  Yeah!  But he did say I have to give up soccer for awhile.  He didn't say anything about my running and I forgot to ask. When he calls back with  my bloodwork results I will double check about my running.  For now I will continue to run, though, since I am a stubborn guy. :-D</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The rest of my physical was pretty normal except my blood pressure is slightly elevated and my weight is up.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BP=138 / 84</p>
<p>HR = 58</p>
<p>Weight = 208  (+ 14 pounds since my last physical in 2008)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have a good one.</p>
<p> </p>

Meri,<br>
What's on the shopping list today? Wheeee, Costco!<br><br>
I'm hoping to survive bootcamp and yoga in the oh-so skanky middle school gym.<br>
Then errands, chores, and watching college football.<br>
Not sure what we'll do at the farm today. Probably check on the gardens and pond to survey if there's storm damage.<br><br>

<p>Costco list:</p>
<p>fruit (cherries, apples, mangoes, etc)</p>
<p>broccoli</p>
<p>coffee for DH</p>
<p>hummus</p>
<p>salsa</p>
<p> </p>
<p>not sure what else.</p>

<p>Good morning,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Only had a 5 mile group run at Ansley this morning.  Looks like tropical storm Lee will finally give Atlanta some much need rain relief Sunday and Monday.  Temps will actually be in the low 80's.  But for today we will be at 93 to continue the heat wave.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>FB - I've been battling plantar fasciitis this summer; just about got it  licked but foot problems are the pitts sometimes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>

<p>Good morning!  A hot and humid long run this morning.  My scheduled 20 became a 17.7.  Ah, <em>ni modo</em>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>FB, I hope the heel gets better quickly.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Meri, my kids call the samples at costco "examples."  Kinda makes sense when you think about it.</p>

 

[merigayle]

<p>i had a bounty of good samples. danish, chips and guacamole, ice cream, cashew chews, pop chips, cole slaw, and i am sure much more i do not remember.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>i got great stuff-- mangoes, grapes, avocados, apples, honeydew, salsa, hummus, tortilla chips, watermelon, coffe and cheesecake for the DH.</p>

<p>Well, I'm late again. Its afternoon already!  </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good luck with the foot FB.  Foot issues suck! Be careful though. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>WTPJ, Hope you didnt get any major storm damage! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>GaReb, did you get your new phone? What do you think of it so far? </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just got back from a short run. The heat killed me today. Oh well. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am so jealous....I miss going to Costco. I would have to drive 70 miles to get to the nearest Costco now.  I will just enjoy it vicariously through you!  </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have a good day everyone. </p>

<p>it was hot here too, went to the playground with Zoe and it was close to 90.</p>
