Travelling

Happy Monday.

We went down to see my mum this weekend. She looks okay. Her face is very bloated from the steroids that she is on, so they actually have decreased the dosage. One more week of radiation and then it's the waiting game for a month until she has her next MRI and we will learn if there is any progress. She isn't walking very much, doesn't want to talk and eats very little. Right now she's here and that's all we can ask for.

We drove back yesterday and stopped on-route to get some lunch. I always feel the sadness when we leave her place and I end up feeling justified in eating junk. So I got myself a chicken burger and fries at A&W. It did not settle well. My kids on-the-other-hand are the cutest things in the world. They got chicken nuggets and fries, which we ended up throwing away as they only wanted apple juice. They then complained that they wanted fruit or veggies and cheese. Luckily we were able to get them some fresh apples and cheese. Gotta' love that my kids wanted to eat healthier than me.

5K101 - Update
Last week I was on schedule to start week 3 of running, but that didn't happen - so today will be day one of week three. This week is a 5min fast walk, followed by 5x 3mins jogging/running then 2mins fast walk, then ending with 5mins fast walk.

I'm finding time around a lot tougher running than last. I don't know if it's the stress of everything going on in my life, or that I'm just lazier. All I know is that I want to get back into my pants and feel comfortable with them on.

Thnx for reading,
Have a healthy day
