My hip is still killing me.  OK, it is not KILLING me, but it is BUGGING the CRAP out of me!  Oh wait, not really, because when I don't run I get so constipated that I can't see straight!!!!  I am not sure what my problem is.  I hope Brady clears me for running tomorrow, but it may be another week.  ARGH.... I am feeling a little Eeyore-esque today.  Ho hum, don't mind me.  I need a 10 miler to kick my booty into gear.  No wait, maybe if I do laundry for 72 hours straight I will feel the love ;)

Poor Eeyore. I wish I could quote an Eeyore line, but it's been too long since my kids have watched Winnie the Pooh.

Hang in there, my friend.

So I was watching Three and a Half Men (shame on me) a while ago and the boy (what's his name - that's how much I watch it, I can't remember his name) was all moody and they took him to psychologists and stuff and couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. Then all the sudden one day he was better and they didn't know why. It turned out that Bertha, the cleaning lady had talked to him the night before. They asked her what she said to him and she said, "Two words: prune juice."

I prefer Benefiber and FiberOne bars to prune juice, but you get the idea. Feel better.

Hope Brady lets you run tomorrow...that oughta clear up whatever constipates you. :) I know what you mean. If I don't run, I turn into some morphing depressing monsterous something. At least you have all these other xtrain talents. :) Hope you feel the love tomorrow!

Carolyn- we watch that show too. I LOVE that advice. I have decided to take the Activia Challenge :) YUMMY!!!

Smooth- Here's hoping he lets me run. I am enjoying being SO lazy! I looked into my running drawer and realized that I need to get my winter clothes out soon :( Oh so sad to have the last day of summer already here. Oh no, watch out, here comes more Eeyore ;D

Dang - mentioning that today is the last day of summer just depressed me. Now I need to go home and run.

Hang in there. Hope the hip feels better soon.

Miles- I almost started crying when the am dj's mentioned it this morning. NO Spring cannot end :(

Crap on the hip and crap on the end of summer, that's all I have to say!

Hang in there chickie poo!!!!!

I am looking forward to a bit cooler running weather - but not the cold at all. It depressed me when I started thinking of which pair of shoes I will screw spikes into for snow running.

From MichelleL on Mon, Sep 21, 2009 at 22:08:16 from 71.213.97.46

Just make sure your foot isn't in the shoe when you screw those screws in.

Well, Marion, at least I have a good recipe for you. Just had it tonight: http://www.recipezaar.com/Any-Fruit-Fast-Fat-Free-Cobbler-73927 "Any Fruit Fast Fat Free Cobbler" 3 ww points (of course the 1/2 cup of reduced fat vanilla ice cream adds 100 cals).
