Running Again

I'm finally almost back into the habit.  I pretty much took the winter off.  Running at -30 degrees didn't seem fun and since I refuse to pay for a gym and don't own a treadmill running was put on hold.  This week hasn't been easy since I've been trying to come down with some sort of creeping crud Bear brought home.  The actual running wasn't so bad but afterwards and just before were not great.


Someday I will get faster.  I am. very. slow.  At least I'm moving.  I'm determined to actually loose some weight this year too.  You would think that after 3 years I could get rid of some of the baby weight.  It is due time now.  The garden will help with that.  Both the act of gardening and the eating more vegetables.


I started my tomatoes today.  I'm already seeing piles of weeds too.  I'm going to need to dig beds again to kill all those little weed starts.  The chickens will hopefully help with some of it but three little ol' chickens aren't going to get it all.  I'll be hopefully getting my voice back enough tomorrow to call a gal that has sheep for sale.  I have no idea if I have enough money for them or decent fences.  I suspect not on both accounts. 


I'm off to finish off my horrible garlic, ginger, lemon, and apple cider vinegar concoction for my throat.  Tastes bad but seems to help.  And then I have children who think I'm starving them.
