Blogging Again?

There hasn't been much to blog about lately. Occasionally I have a good rant I'd like to get off my chest but then I'm too busy at the time to write or it would be construed as offensive to someone (not offensive in some sort of ugly, vulgar way, you know what I mean.) I will say this, Socialism Shmocialism, and the world has always been good/evil and I don't necessarily think it's any worse now. Remember hearing about that whole Holocaust thing? Anyway, I don't have time for a good rant at the moment. I will say this: I am at my wits end. I worked out for 90 days, six days a week. Felt fine the whole time after the first week. Then I finish and take a few days off. Yes, I started slacking and was down to two or three workouts a week. I have been fighting off injuries left and right since. What's the deal? I was actually excited to start seriously running and I was making progress. A friend of mine is trying to talk me into running a marathon in two years when we hit the big 4-0. I'm not ready to commit because, let's face it, I'd probably be one of those rare cases of death by running induced cardiac arrest. Or at least have to undergo a long series of knee surgeries. I know, there is no cure for hypochondria. But I was considering training for more 5ks and I'd even like to do a 10k, never done that before. But now the foot isn't cooperating, even though I was nice to it and bought pretty new running shoes. And they were more than just a pretty face. So now I need to take it easy on the foot, hope it gets better and take it to a doctor soon if it doesn't. Maybe I should look into this new workout that all the celebrities are raving about (at least acccording to some show on the lastest workouts all the celebrities are raving about that I saw around the new year.) It looks like an upside down bicycle and you pedal with your hands as fast as you can. Then I'd probably have a shoulder injury. Maybe I just need to get some patience. There are some things happening, hopefully. I've already told too many people and I'm afraid I'm going to jinx myself so I'll hold off on talking about that. We are going to Arizona for Spring Break. We weren't sure until just yesterday but it's a go now. Yay! 85 degrees! Seems like it's usually about 95 so it should be just right, or so weather.com says. Arizona is where my mom and stepdad and two sisters and brother and families live. The kids haven't been down to see my family in three years and my mom misses them so that will be nice. There has been a lot of, ehem, drama going on down South lately but it's looking like it will be a good trip regardless of that. While we were there we wanted to go take a tour of Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin West but it will cost over a hundred bucks to tour for 90 minutes. I was trying to justify it saying, he's a world famous architect, it's like visiting Europe! But Frank and Europe will have to wait. Not in this economy, right? So maybe some nice hikes on South Mountain and Superstition Mountain will suffice. That is if my stupid foot will hold up. Stupid foot!
