The months of April and May were among the most busy I have ever been in my life. So many things happening and yet not enough. My leg injury that set me back on April 15th was a major problem for me in that I couldn't run. Even though I did rest it and stayed off the thing for nearly six weeks, it gave me issues. Then I went to the Rum Run in May and ran/walked that, with success.
A visit to Rebound orthopedic center and Dr Ellis was good news as my calf muscles, not a stress fracture, were nearly healed up. Two weeks he said. So, here we are at just over two weeks. Ran yesterday, a day early, and the leg feels fine.
But, I do have a half marathon this weekend and that is going to be a true test of this healing process. My intention is to walk/run this 13.1 miles and see how it goes. The Vancouver USA marathon and half is one of my all time favourites and this is it's sixth year. This race is always first on my list to run and hopes are that there will be great weather and no injuries for anyone.
After the last six months of spending time with Dena during her employment break, it is going to be a tough change getting back to all of this time alone again. But, I have things lined up and will be devoting a lot more of it to the Dragon Digital business and shooting some photos that might win me some $$ or get my name out there. Unfortunately, some hobbies and interests are going to take a back seat as this happens. What they are I don't know just yet. Time will tell as to what life throws at me.
Over the last few months I have met so many new friends both in person and online that my heart swells with love! <3 From soulmates in the Midwest to those in the NW and east coast, Canada, I cannot rightly remember ever having this many friends. I'm truly blessed and thank all of them (you know who you are) and you for such friendships and love, for putting up with me and my eccentric ways. I can be a challenge quite often and know that for a fact. My heart is yours! <3
I'm a major chatterbox and always will be so that is something I'm wired for. And many times I will be lonely due to others being busy. Hey, that is life, Seumas, So toughen up and keep busy doing other things in between those social and chatty times. Working on that!! If you are one of my chat pals and are reading this, we have had this discussion. And I thank you for your loyalty, honesty and the love you give! <3 <3 <3
