This is Why I Suck ...

So, 10 days after my last post I got in a car wreck. It wasn't terrible, I wasn't really hurt that bad (except my stupid sprained finger) but my car was totaled out and I had a bit of a shoulder/neck/back ache for about a week. Anyway, then Thanksgiving and Christmas happened and I have kinda stopped with the doing good in the whole eating better and exercising thing. I realized though that I am going to Costa Rica in less than a month, so I really need to get back on the ball here. So today, I finally bit the bullet and went running again. After not having gone for 2 months. And you know what? It wasn't that bad. In fact, I was smiling when I got home because I had missed it. Yeah, I know, what has happened to me? I am wondering too. I am not complaining, just curious.

Anyway, I am going to start being better again because I need to do good for Costa Rica (and for my health I guess). Also, when I went home for the holidays my brother's gf Suzie and I talked a lot about how we need to do better in the health department - we both have things we need to look good for coming up soon - so we promised each other that the next time we saw each other, there would be less to see. I am not sure when that will be exactly, but I need to work on it now so that I can keep my promise. The last thing I need is for summer to come and for me to schedule a trip home and then to realize that I haven't done anything and I am fatter than I was when I made that promise! That WILL NOT HAPPEN! So here so we go, I am keeping track again. Whew! Wish me luck!
