Been to Lame Land

Bought the T-shirt.

I've been in a funk and haven't felt like writing. Well, I've felt like it, but just haven't done it. Mainly because I am tired of this "poor me" attitude that I've let invade me and I didn't want to share that with the world. Or the dozen or so people that read this. I know that you are tired of reading it, and I'm tired of writing it, frankly.

Cut to the chase- leg still not healed, I'm still not running. And I'm a big cry baby about it. I have yet another x-ray next week. Not hopeful because the hopeful me didn't get anywhere. On the positive side, I found an internist that I am really, really comfortable with and if you know me, you know that's a big accomplishment. Dr. Adams makes me laugh and actually remembers the last time I was in, etc. He held my hand while I cried during my first visit (it's a Cathy-thing) and that got my vote right there. It's nice to finally be able to say that I have a doctor and I'll be able to list a name on forms now where you have to list a doctor. Woot woot!

I did a 5k walk a couple of weekends ago and I'm itching to run. Soon. Chicago marathon is creeping up and I want to train well for it.

Mother's Day came and went and I lived through it. It's still all about my Mom. And it doesn't get easier.

I've done a lot of fun things in the past month or so. St. Louis Zoo Friends Day, multiple fishing weekends, family days and booking and planning a long overdue summer vacation. 5 weeks from today we'll be on our way to British Columbia. These 5 weeks can't go fast enough. Within those five weeks, I have 4 days of work meetings I'm helping organize in New Jersey. The following week, we host the same meetings in Arizona.

Today was Caden's last day as a second grader. He's out for summer break… and four hours into it, he was a little teary because he misses school already. :-)  Gotta love him!!! <3

I need to revamp this blog, too. Looking stale and b-o-r-i-n-g. New project!
