I don't know if its the thyroid pill or what, but I have the most incredible sense of well being and energy. Dr. said if I feel jacked up I may be taking too much. I can't quite tell if I feel jacked up or if this is how one is suppose to feel all the time. I'm thinking to drop the coffee, that maybe it's an edge I don't need anymore?
Griff and I walked the marina across from Josh's school on Monday. It wasn't much like exercise for me, but sometimes it's just about being with Griff and having him enjoy the outdoors. He hopped onto the wall that's between the sidewalk and the bay. So of course I had to walk slower, but he was really enjoying it. Then he decided to walk on the "beach" on the rocks, which slowed down my walk even further, but it was very entertaining. On his side of the wall were these bigass jumping bugs. They freaking looked like cockroaches. They may have been, but I thought cockroaches liked dark places and these were just on the wall. Gross.
Yesterday we did the Crocker Trail. He was really pissed off that I insisted we walk as he'd just gotten a new game and certainly didn't want to stop playing. We got all the way to the top, the halfway point, and he decided to work his upper body--breaking the pompous grass spears and thrashing the anise plants with it. Like I said, part of the point is to see him having fun outdoors, so I just circled back when I could no longer see him and got a NICE long walk in. He discovered that the anise stalks were actually stronger than the pompous grass so reversed the plant torture. It's a long trail and there is lots of both plants so it was really an okay activity. Was bummed that I had to tell him to hustle, I had to pick up Josh and we were still 15 minutes from the car. He was then reluctant and disappointed that I was interrupting his newfound fun. hee hee. Love to see him outdoors. Before he discovered the thrashing, he was enjoying the blackberries again. And I got a very good 75 minute walk!
