Ok, well I didn't stop exercising or watching Biggest Loser or end up in a hospital..... I just allowed someone else to use my computer and they signed me out of hotmail/windows live and I couldn't figure out my login.  Ooops!!  I kept thinking it was the name of our site.  Finally I realized hubby and I have separate logins....and THEN I remembered what mine was.  Thus are the hazards of letting your computer remember you so that you don't have to login every time.

 

So what's new.....

 

Hmmmm... I crashed my bike and survived.  One of the wheels didn't and I had lots of scrapes and bruises, but it's all good and I'm pretty much healed now.  It was the MOST fun ride ever, until I crashed.    Jane and I rode from Mt. Laguna to Julian.  Ok so Jane rode all the way to Julian and I stopped (crashed) a few miles short of the destination.  Thankfully Josh (my son) was our support vehicle and he rescued me.  I'm still not sure exactly what happened.  We think maybe the tire blew out and then I overreacted with my brakes... All I know is that I felt like I went down into a hole that didn't exist and I remember mashing my brakes... won't be doing that again anytime soon.  Unless I'm wanting to practice my acrobatic skills.

 

On Monday I rode 40 miles!!!!!  Then I got back on the bike on Tuesday for my normal commute and I won't say that it was "easy," but it was much less hard!!  Today, I'm resting.  I'm pretty darn sore so I'm taking a wee little break.  I still have weightlifting tonight so it's not a complete "rest" day.

 

And.... My foot is feeling AWESOME!!!  I'm not quite ready to resume walking or hiking, but the pain has decreased significantly.  It was barely sore at all this morning!!  Hallelujah!!  I am sooooo glad I listened to my intuition and looked for a solution that didn't involve surgery!!
