Well, this week has been a little tough. I attempted the couch to 5k. My heel is so fatigued after 5 minutes of exercise. I don't know what it is. I asked a physical therapist colleague to look at it. She believes that it is just weak after injuring it in that race and the baby and the weight gain have all affected the strength of this tendon. I was thinking that I might need surgery but she said that after a year, scar tissue is there (if there were micro-tears). She didn't believe that I had torn anything based on her knowledge. I was glad to hear that, but it makes me sad that I am going to have to start "before scratch" as my sister says. I am so sad about that.
I've been a little emotional this week. It may be a case of postpartum. Isn't it too late after the baby to realize that I have it. I didn't really experience it much with Bug. I think for about a day or two after he was born, I had a breakdown, but I think that was from being a new mom. Hopefully, I can shake it off soon and get back to being myself. It may be my need for perfection. You know how I am. If things aren't A-B-C in exact order, I lose it. So, I am just going to ATTEMPT to chill out.
Lil Fred is doing so much better. The combination of speech therapy and just plain old fashion growing up has made a tremendous difference. He keeps talking about his birthday and what he wants for his birthday party. "Cars 2 birthday party, Mama!" I will definitely make it happen. He wants it at Chuck-e-cheeses. I'd rather not do it there, but he loves the place. So this weekend, I will call or go up there to set things up for Bug's 4th Birthday. Can you believe my baby is 4. Tears....time flies.
