Miserable day yesterday (and into the night) with 2 children each having violent throw-up for about 6-10 hours. Luckily, Mike and I were both well and could take care of them. Since I was already up early this morning with the baby, I figured I might as well go running with Lynn at 6:00. I warned her that I was going to be as slow as a slug today because of yesterday and last night. She didn't seem to mind - bless her. I thought I would have to turn around early or at least walk a little, but once I started running, my legs just keep going. It was a weird and somewhat exhilarating experience.

I hope we're all able to get some naps today.

--------------

Nice, long nap - feeling human again. My knee didn't like my run today, though. I iced it for about half and hour, and then wore my brace for a couple hours, but it still feels swollen and unhappy. Blast.

What's up w/ the knees on this blog? Sorry to hear yours acted up today- hopefully will be all better in the am. Hang in there, having sick kids is tough!!

Oh, I'm so sorry! Tummy sickness is the worst with little ones. Sorry about your knee, too! ((Hugs)) your way.

Nice run, you gotta love those unexpected use of commando points. Some days just have that sprinkling of fairy dust. Hope your little ones are feeling better.

Stay Kool, B of BS Rools out

Hang in there with the sick little ones! Hope you will all be back to normal in the A.M., (the kids and the knees!!!)
