Praise the Lord!! I passed my glucose test!! I am not diabetic!! it is a really good day! :)
I was on the Marta, on the way downtown to pick up my race number, on the phone with Greg, when the OB office rang through. I almost didn't get it b/c I was getting close to downtown and knew that I would be underground and lose one or both calls...but I couldn't stand it and had to get it! When she said I passed, I made a complete fool of myself and everyone around me started snickering at me...I don't care...bring on the sweet potato casserole!! :)
I was cleared to walk the Thanksgiving 1/2 marathon and am planning to walk with a friend from running club who is nursing an IT band injury. Ironic, but the girl I bought the number from is young and apparently really, REALLY fast (like 7 minute miles fast)...so I have my best number (4499) and best corral start EVER (A). Although I am bummed that I won't be able to run the race, I am thankful that Carole is walking with me and grateful that I am able to walk it at all...I missed the Thanksgiving 1/2 when I was pregnant with Mathis, so this will be sweet - running or walking! And, because Carole earned a B corral start we will hopefully stay ahead of the street sweepers and finish well before the 3:30 time limit! :)
The boys are off from school for the remainder of the week and although I had grand plans to make it an adventure of a day, it sounds like they just want to play outside all day...which is fine with me!!
We hope you all have safe and blessed Thanksgiving!!
