We interrupt your regularly scheduled "3 Things Thursday" with a very important announcement:
I have waited nine long, never ending months to say that my friends and it feels even better than I thought it would!!!
I'm going to keep this short and sweet because I need to get to it here at work but in a nutshell; the MRI and x-rays showed a cleanly healed fracture site and after a few hop/jump tests and a promise not to even think about attempting to run a marathon for at least a year he cleared me for takeoff! Half mile increments every week, running only three days per week, until I get up to at least 5 miles. Then I can start thinking about any kind of real "training." I cannot even begin to tell you how much I needed some good news this week!
The Redhead has been cleared for takeoff!!!
