I once heard a great break down of the word hope....Hold On Pain Ends...that's how I feel today :)
The Physio Therapist came to my house this morning as I am still not able to get out on my own with the baby yet. She assessed my whole body and as she was doing that she kept saying, "Ya wow that's weak"...now I know that my body has taking a beating over these past few months and that I am not at my pre-baby strength, but it was just a bit of a downer to hear another professional confirm it for me :(
However as we went on she was telling me all the different type of physio exercises that I can start doing and I started to feel excited. Excited because I was consulting with some one who knows this stuff better then me and she was finally presenting me with some more solutions to getting better. I just have basic knowledge with my personal experience and professional training. So it was really great to learn some more things from a specialist. Plus I was totally able to understand the exercise she was telling me about and how to increase them over time. So once again I will be at home with myself in my head as my own trainer making it happen...just like when I first started this whole thing 3yrs ago!
Today was also the first day that I started to feel a little down and frustrated about where I'm at and how slowly things are coming along. But after she left and I had a list of the exercises to do, I was in the kitchen getting lunch ready thinking about how I was going to make the time to get in all the exercises that I need to do. I then started crying, because I felt hope....I just knew that there WAS going to be an end to this and I WAS going to get better and better from here. AND I finally felt like I WILL be crossing that finish line in Sept for the Try-Tri distance at Kelso!!...before today, I hadn't been so sure. I texted Nancy our Mommy's/Babe's Head Coach after I wiped the tears away, " I feel more confidant about building this body up properly now. I'm going to cross that finish line in Sept...It's going to happen!"
So here are my goals for this summer:
1. Do my physio exercise daily and through my day
2. add in walk before I get the big kids at the bus at 3pm
3. Walk the 1k Meredith Hagan Kids Fun run, Moon in June with the baby and my 4yr
4. Do the Meredith Hagan Insperation 5k trail walk (that would make her very happy)
5. Do the Try-Tri distance in Sept at Kelso
6. Do the 5k Island girl race at the end of Sept (walking or jogging...where ever I am at, at that point)
Ok I told you all so now I HAVE to do it! LOL!
