Comments: The weather was not fun this week! I had really been lucky this summer with decent weather, but this week took a toll on me. I felt a bit sluggish on my runs and didn’t attempt a workout. I also started getting a rash all over my belly and back that really looked icky after my runs. I went to the doctor on Thursday just to be sure it wasn’t anything to worry about, and she thinks it’s just due to the heat and increased blood flow. The poison ivy continues as well. I tried Zanfel, which is a pricey tube of body scrub, but it didn’t work. So I’ve just been lathering myself in Ivarest.

On a good note, I was back at work this week. I will just sub until baby comes, as this gives me flexibility which I’m grateful for, especially these last couple months. It was so wonderful to see the students and staff at the elementary school and can’t wait to go back next week.
