**Days 425 & 426**

Well, I was right - I can't run 1.5 miles without stopping, but that's okay because I'm going to keep at it until I can - it shouldn't take long...I hope!   I have some pain in my mid-upper back, which I'm thinking is from the upper body workout I did, but, I guess, that's a good thing - it shows I worked my muscles good, right?  I'm going to do the same upper body workout tomorrow.  I really want to firm up my arms, and get some nice looking shoulders for all the tank top wearing I WON'T be doing - ha!  I've been really good at tracking my food, but I didn't do great on my water yesterday, so I'll be making sure I get in 120 ounces today!


So, my girls are sick again!  One has the snotty nose again, and the other has a stuffy nose and a fever, and my nose is a bit stuffy again, too.  I don't know what to do!!  I've cleaned and disinfected the house, washed all the bedding and towels, I've had the windows open on two different days to try to air this place out.  I've been making sure everyone washes their hands alot! What else can I do??  Any suggestions?  I think, we're just passing and back and forth to one another.  My sister's family has been sick for the last few weeks, too.  Her two year old has a nasty cold, and a couple days ago her 3 month old baby girl was diagnosed with RSV, which is virus that can turn pretty serious for an infant, so they are keeping a close eye on her, AND my sister has a nasty cold, and she ended up in the ER this morning because her whole face swelled up like The Elephant Man!!  I'd post a picture of what she looks like right now, but she would kill me!  They don't know what's causing the swelling, but they put her on an IV and gave her some medicine, and the swelling has gone down a bit.  So, anyway, there is just some nasty crap going around, and everyone is having a hard time kicking it!!

I'll be back tomorrow to post my weigh-in results.  I'm hoping to be down another two pounds!!!
