Week 4 Down and Other Stuff

Week four progressed nicely! I'm feeling great and want to do more and more each day. By the end of the week, I made it 30 minutes on the treadmill. This week I plan on making it to my normal 45 minutes and am also going to work on my speed. I'm confident that when I go back to the doctor next Tuesday, that he will give me the go ahead to start working out again. And I want to be ready!

Last week I also decided that if I didn't take action on the steri strips, they were going to be a permanent fixture on my body. So Friday night - after having a few beers since it was my birthday - I pulled off the remaining three strips. Not a bad decision at all. Scars are healing nicely. Not that anyone other then my husband will ever see them, because I doubt that this mid 40's something girl will ever be prancing about in a string bikini.

So what else did I do this weekend....I helped stimulate the economy...a lot. Oh and I also plan on doing more this week. I even had enough energy to do the laundry which has really piled up in the last few weeks. Mostly my fault since I don't let the hubs near the laundry for fear of what he may do to it. Although I did make him bring the hamper downstairs for me, since we aren't blessed with having a laundry shoot.

And speaking of my husband. He's been hard at work the last week doing yard work and planting and transplanting things. He's also earned a nickname thanks to me. I now call him Farmer John. He reminds me of a farmer in these shots and of course he had to pose for one.


And this is one of my favorite flowers growing out there right now. There are a few others that I have to photograph and will post at another time.

I hope everyone has a good week!
