Brian got the hiccups after his surgery. He complained about them so the nurse gave him Thorazine. (Note to self - never again) He went into la-la land big time. He thought he was on a cruise...in Springfield...Massachussetts...where they had taken a wall out of our room...and on and on and on. He was really over the edge. Pulled out his IV once and tried it a second time. It is funny (well, not

Two weeks ago when Brian was discharged from the hospital, he was still having pains in his stomache. They weren't getting better. The surgeon didn't want to do surgery because of Brian's previous history. Said he wasn't sure if the risk was worth the benefit. So, Brian called the oncologist and told him that the pain was unbearable. That it felt the same as when he first had surgery and was

What is a normal schedule? I really was going to get back on a schedule last week. Didn't happen. I did get the elastic sewn onto my daughter's toe shoes. I did "attend" the inauguration with 210 of my favorite students at school. I did make it to class Tuesday and Thursday. I did plan an entire school wide community day for my school to celebrate on Wednesday. I did get my portfolio

So, my husband came home from the hospital. He didn't have any procedures, just some steroids and bowel rest. He got to come home Thursday night. So, I am going to try to return to a "normal" schedule....like I ever had a normal schedule.Tomorrow is Monday, I will get up and work at the HZ in the a.m. I have a couple of dr. appts.. myself. Then I will meet with the Monday group at 5:30 p.m.

It is amazing that even after being a runner for such a short time (4 weeks now?) that I miss it when I don't get it in. I did well at the beginning of the week...running at the HZ even if I missed the runs with the group. Thursday I was prepared to run with the group when I realized that I wasn't going to be at school on Friday and needed to set up for my sub. I didn't get finished with that

I couldn't sleep last night, finally fell to the sandman about 3 this morning. At 4:30 woke up to the alarm letting me know that the Health Zone opened in 30 minutes and I was supposed to meet the trainer. So, I crawled out of bed and threw on some workout clothes. I knew that I had to get ready for an entire day before I left...I wasn't coming back home until after running tonight.I had my

Who ever thought that running would be easy? This portion of my story begins in December, 2007. Fox 23 was having a contest. (Isn't it always about a contest?) They were looking for a family to follow for a year - with a nutritionist and a personal trainer - a family who wanted to improve their health and well being...we were picked as the first Move It! family for Fox 23. Most of the 2008

Well, I have joined the ranks of bloggers. I am trying to write a grant for my school about podcasting and blogging and figured that I should know what I am doing before I try to teach it to my kids and ask for money to do it. Look for updates at least weekly. See ya,powerma
