GFTW 20: Don't Think About Crazy Tongue Faces!

So, whatcha thinking about right now?

How about now?
I really hope you're not thinkin' what I think you're thinking...not about crazy tongue faces!! uh, but WHY? I told you not to! Forget about em! Spend your energy on other more productive things.


This has been my thinking the past few days, but instead of crazy tongue faces, it's been about my...heel! I'm trying my darnest to not think/worry about it, but it's sorta hard when I'm either icing it, heating it, wearing compression socks, elevating it in my face, or simply feeling it with every step. 


But I'm still trying to put my energy to other things. But even those 'other' things are a bit up in the air. It's like everything is in a holding pattern until I figure out what the heck is up with the (don't wanna say the word, but starts with the letter H and ends with a L).

So my goals for the week are in a holding pattern too, til I know what I can/can't do physically. I have my primary care doc appt Mon am, who will most likely refer me to a specialist, who I PRAY I can see pronto. Like same day pronto. This is what I've got so far:


Mom: Set up a playdate for this week or next, with a potential program for the lil' ones to attend next year.


Wife: Finalize Napa Wine Train dinner, and if it doesn't work, make a date for Fri nit.

health and athlete: geesh, I'll an idea of those hopefully tomorrow. For now they are to RICE, and not eat so much rice til I'm training again.




Personal Growth: Be kind to myself. And it's okay to think about Crazy Tongue Faces the heel;-). Embrace it baby.


So send some warm fuzzy thoughts this way tomorrow and this week. I know you already have, and I SO appreciate it.  And tell me too, what are YOUR goals for the week?

You seem to run a tight ship at your house and you both seem like very strict and serious parents. Please let your hair down and have a "little" fun...your pictures cracked me up! Puros payasos alli en tu casa.
PLEASE run SF, I'm dying to meet you!
Let me know if you need PF advice, it's still a daily commitment to keeping the body in one piece!
Get better and hugs,

My goal for the week is not to go nuts without running. Not to drive my family nuts without running. Not to eat too much since I am not running. -- I think you understand.
Good luck with the dr. today.
I think I found a sports injury guy I would willing to talk to.
Hey, at least your pic with silly faces made me smile. Thanks.
