One BIG reason I was super excited for the school year to start was that all the kids would be in school and I could finally exercise guilt-free (without getting up early...because, let's be honest, that is NEVER going to happen). You want to know what killed that excitement?! My darn foot!!!
I'm not even sure what happened, but when I was in Hawaii I somehow strained/inflamed/angered my foot. I came home basically limping...with pain every time I put weight on my foot. I assumed I just walked too much with thin flipflops (no support) and started icing it daily and resting it. After about a month of that with no improvement, I went to the dr. She put me in a "shoe" and told me to continue icing and resting...4 weeks later, no improvement. She ordered x-rays and sent me to the specialist...more x-rays, 2 cortisone shots, 4 weeks of taping and I am now in a fancy new boot. Ugh. The entire time Jordan has been at college, I have been pretty much not able to do ANYTHING on my foot!!! Super frustrating, depressing, and annoying.
Here's hoping we figure this whole thing out in the New Year and I can get back to being excited about working out!!!!
