Easter 2010

We had a great Easter at my parents house. The weather was perfect - mid 80s and plenty of sun. It's been a long time since we've had nice Easter weather. The kids had fun looking for eggs. Darrius' main focus was trying to find the most eggs so that he could remain "the champion". That boy is competitive with everything!

Why so serious?

We had a great day with family. And Darrius is still the Easter Egg Hunt Champion (unofficial title)

Back in the saddle

Great news! My knee is doing MUCH better. I had my follow-up appointment last Monday. The discomfort in my knee had lessened and I didn't need to take the anti-inflammatory medicine daily. I finally got my knee brace which is great. It only took 3 weeks! Sheesh! So my doctor told me that as long as I'm not experiencing more discomfort and that my knee is getting better instead of worse, there's no reason for me to come back. If I start having more pain, then to give him a call. Woo hoo!

With that great bit of news, I started back with the Chubby Jones 5k podcast on Saturday. Today was my second day working out to it and my knee still feels fine. I'm back to square one with the 5k training but that's okay. I least I can train again!
