SICK AGAIN

I am trying not be discouraged that I have a cold again. We seem to be recirculating our cold virus. Jeff and Ella have colds too. I think I always get sick from the youngest child because they need help with everything. Saturday night Ella woke up every half an hour crying and needing a new tissue. She seems to like to only dab her nose one time and then she needs a brand new tissue. Needless to say we were exhausted come Sunday morning. I ended up staying home with all of the kids.

I ran at the track on Saturday for the first time since last summer. It felt good to be there again. I can't run a mile yet without stopping ( I know sad), but I speed walk until I feel rested enough to jog again. I have heard this is actually a good technique for weight loss. I told my Mom that I may be training for a marathon and she thought that was hilarious she literally laughed. So I have to decide if I want to put in the effort or not to make it happen. They do it on the Biggest Loser every year so I think if I really want to I can. Then my throat started hurting by Saturday night and I thought great the first time I go running I get sick. I am dosing up on all of these "natural remedies" like Airborne, EmergenC, and zinc lozenges. Hopefully one or all will help speed up the healing process because they are all expensive.
Hoping my family and I will feel better soon.
