My Saturday ritual has always been pouring my morning cup of coffee and then sitting down and stalking all of you bloggers and read about what you have been doing, not doing, bitching about, suggesting, reviewing, cooking, racing, running, cycling and yes, what you've been doing to inspire me. Now that I've been sidelined and yes, truthfully I'm a little lost with what to do with myself at the moment, I even contemplated taking a blogging break, which I have (threatened to do) done before.
No,
I'm not threatening to leave blogsphere
like some other nameless person we all know and love.
But,
with whom I've threatened
we should ALL go and sit on her new front lawn
until she comes back to blogland.
No, I'm not going to leave you.
I just won't be able to write about my running, training, complaining about running in the cold and wind with snow banks up to my ass (I'm 5' 10", you figure out how much snow we get here).
No, I'll be boring you with what I'm doing out in the garden, where I'm going to put my birdbath, and whether I should plant crocus bulbs for next spring, (oh gawd, say it ain't so), or what cookbooks I'm reading, (please, just shoot me now), or God forbid Scrapbooking, (sorry Marie, I love you, REALLY)....
Instead, I'm going to have to get my sorry ass over to the gym and do some real work. Working with weights, training on the elliptical, rowing machine and the dreaded treadmill (walking only, thank you). Anything that doesn't involve knee work, so I guess squats are out of the picture.
Tuesday is my first day with the "real" physiotherapist so I'll find out what I can actually do to improve my knee strength. Hopefully I won't have to go for too long, holy crapola, that is a BIG BUCK industry and I don't have coverage. So with any luck she can give me exercises to do at home.
Ruby, well, I'm checking to see if she can be picked up today, I need to get out and spin. As Blue and The Flanders Fat Cat have suggested, I should come over to the light. Maybe I'll take them up on that, for awhile anyway!
Have a great weekend and remember,
Life's fun if you don't weaken,
Lily
