Day 17 & 18

Wednesday

Walked 19 minutes, 4 laps (1 mile)

The fatigue has hit really hard. I'm sleeping a full night, only to be in desperate need of a nap two hours after I wake up. I sleep until noon or slightly after and by 10 pm, I'm beyond ready for bed. It's so frustrating.

Wednesday was the first day I had the opportunity to walk this week. Due to the fatigue & just plain not feeling well, I managed a whole mile. It's something! I have to hang on to that.


Thursday

Today, I plan to skip attempting to walk. My left heel is close to being healed. Since I haven't been able to do much this week, I think it's to my advantage to allow my poor foot the extra day to heal.

Day 13

Walked 40 minutes; 8 laps (2 miles)

Walked with Jay.

Had the opportunity, so I took it.

My energy levels seem to be much better. Yesterday evening, I spent a couple of hours in the kitchen. Cleaning & cutting up vegetables. Preparing salads.

Cleaned Dobby's cages. Made our bed. Though I hit a wall halfway through dressing the bed.

Slept at least 12 hours last night. After getting lunch, as I rolled out of bed at 11 am, I began cooking. Made Cauliflower Bake, Cloverleaf rolls, a cake. Sliced some mushrooms and cleaned & cut up cauliflower.

After returning from our walk, made dinner with the help of Tim & Jay. We had steaks with mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes, salads and rolls.

After cleaning up the dishes, I made the icing & frosted the cake.

I'm tired. But, it's a good tired.

Day 12

Walked 56 minutes; 11 laps (2.75 miles)

Thank goodness for the late start this morning, as I was completely incapable of function when I got up to see Jay off to school. Went from bed to couch, saw him off, and back to bed. Completely exhausted after a full night's sleep.

Both Tammy & I were running behind for our 11 am meet up. Then, her mom's hair appointment went quicker than usual. So, we had a shorter walk than normal. But, that's OK.

With the way I am feeling, I am just happy that I was able to show up.

Plus, I am happy to report that the transitional soreness has stopped. That is a huge help.
