My absolutely insane life

 This weekend we also went to the state fair.  While I had a blast it was also incredibly difficult for me to walk around there especially after doing the Mud Girl Run the day before.   We walked around and stopped for lunch at Sam’s.  Then we rode on the Ferris wheel…..not something Brad really wanted to do, but something I really wanted to do.l. What really sucked was we were on it with a family of four who wouldn’t shut up.  I honestly had hoped that it would have been just me and him in the one cart, but nope a family with teenagers.  So much for fun for us.   We ended the day with cream puffs.  Brad ended up buying 12 of them.  God only knows why he got so many LOL.   Of course, by the time I came home I was in so much intense paid and struggled to find relief. By the end of the night I could barely walk.  My hips hurt, my legs, my upper chest, my waist…..everything!

  This past weekend I decided to do the Mud Girl Run.  I wasn’t thinking whenI signed up that this event is more than just doing some fun obstacles, but instead it involves walking a 5K.  I am proud to say that even though it was hard I did it.  I walked the entire thing, and did almost all of the obstacles.  I skipped one called Twin Peaks…..that mud was deep and the climb out looked exceptionally difficult.  I also didn’t do one where you had to pick up a big potato sack and carry it.  There was no way I was going to chance hurting my back lifting that thing up.   Of course, during the event the girls thought it would be funny to pretend I couldn’t do it, so they picked me up and started carrying me.  They thought they were being hilarious. In the end we all crossed the finish line. I will admit I felt so accomplished because I didn’t think I would make it, but alas I did!!!!  Of course, I paid dearly for doing this event.  The pain in my hip was immense and almost unbearable.  I kno
