The crazy things rain can make you do...

I think we're getting a little stir-crazy over here. There has been almost constant rain since Saturday! Today, there was actually a little break in the weather, so I took off running (I missed Sun, Mon and Tues) and felt great. Since DaddyDude had to go to work, I took the girls with me (they rode scooters) for my final two miles.

We were less than 0.5 mile from home when I tripped over Marika and her scooter and went flying (extremely ungracefully) onto the ground. Yup, I managed to do so something painful to my left ankle, so after grumbling and resting for a few minutes, I managed to shakily run home with the girls. I put Tiger Balm on it and wrapped it up so we'll see how it goes. I think we all KNOW I'm going to try running on it tomorrow, if it's not raining. Yes, there gets a point at which you become addicted to exercise - and yes, I do think it's worth it for the end result. =)

See all those buckets? The girls lined those up to catch the rain. Never mind that it's pouring (again) and I hear some thunder! Oh, and see how our yard is already flooding? I really don't want to know what they do with that water tomorrow... as long as they don't ingest it, I think we're okay...
