    I find if you make those nifty sound effects it helps with most things in life - renos, exercise, driving, child rearing.... you name it, if you give it a 'kung fu sound effect' it makes it easier.
    Hey we should apply it to taking our meds and getting better. I'm gonna try that right now when I take my meds.

    You're doing great, Nikki! I haven't walked two miles since having Wegs. I probably could, though. Just need to do it.

    I signed up for a 5k in May. I may just walk it but, I signed up for it. It's one of the Color Runs. If you don't know what they are, every 1k they throw colored cornstarch at you. By the end of the run you are a multicolored mess! I did it down in San Francisco in July 2012. I can't wait to do it again. It's a group of Sonoma County Dispatchers that are all doing it so it should be fun!! I'll find someone to wallk with me. I don't think I'll be running a 5k by May but we never know!
    I also am doing a 10k walk (6 miles) in May. It's the Human Race, it's free, and we are all just walking. I am looking forward to it.

    1.5 miles out in the sunshine on my break. My lower back was killing me. Which is weird because it hasn't hurt in the last couple walks. I thought maybe I was working past it.

    Hi Nikki,

    Backs can be funny. They go out of whack for no good reason sometimes. Hope yours gets better quickly.

    If my wife and I had walked outside today, we'd have gotten frostbite. Windchill was about -15 F most of the day here. So we walked about two miles inside at the Y, and I added three dozen crunches.

    Nikki, how often do you see your chiropractor?

    I actually haven't seen the chiropractor in almost 2 years. I think my lower back hurts from my unfortunate prednisone stomach. It's like I'm pregnant. It's not all the time ... but it happens and it's annoying and then I can't walk right.
    Or ... I could just go see the chiro and see what he says.

    I know you all love the chiros in your lives, but the only correct and rehabilitating method is to use a physical therapist. They KNOW the body in conjunction with what you're going thru at the time...chiros don't have the skills nor the techniques to correct actual debilitating problems in the body (ie, NOT MDs, not skilled surgeons, NOT legally permitted...and so on). But, gotta give them their due, they do make us 'feel' better. Sighs...reaches for coffee...hmmm, may need therapy for that too...what!!!!
