1. I finally got rid of my scale. I would weigh myself every Wednesday morning before getting ready for work. The number on the scale would range from 158-167 every week. I know better than to listen to it. I’ve gained weight over the years (per my scale) but am down 2 sizes in pants. My legs are more muscular and I like it. 🙂
2. Tomorrow morning I have a doctor appointment for a physical exam, pap smear, etc, etc. I go every year and have been going there for almost 10 years. My doctor is cool and I like her. I feel very comfortable with her and have seen her when I had problems with my ears and my throat. Oh, and one year I had a mild case of bronchitis and she saw me right away and gave me antibiotics.
I also get a referral from her for a mammogram. It is weird how I can’t just go and get one, I have to get an “OK’ from her. Not cool. I am due for one soon and hopefully can go before school starts next month. When I went last year, she told me I had lost 11 lbs. from the year before. Let’s see what she tells me tomorrow (not that I really care, see #1). 🙂
3. Lately I’ve been running without any music. Sometimes I listen to it when I am on the treadmill but not outside. My friend, Paul, sometimes listens to audiobooks. I prefer the actual books but am intrigued by the other option so last night I downloaded a bunch of audiobooks. I am really excited about “The First Phone Call from Heaven” by Mitch Albom. I am a big fan and have read most of his books.

These are all great reasons to run. I agree with each one.
This is great, Zenaida, and you list many fantastic reasons to run! When I ran, I ran for many of…
They will definitely look for me, but then remember that mama went back to work to afford the food and…
That is true. It is a time to also recharge my batteries.
