On Saturday, DH, Audrey (Ravebaby) and I went to This Won't Suck '12 in Shreveport, LA. We caught a ride on the Social Bliss Will of Fire van. It was fun! We know Social Bliss from their local jigs and in fact Max, the lead singer, is DH's guitar teacher and DD just loves him. We caught the van at 3 pm and I got into my bed at 3 am. It was a long day. Ravebaby did wonderfully! Honestly she was better than some of the "adults." :)
Before going on the van, I had the unpleasant discovery of my period starting. I knew something was going on with me. I had had no energy all week. I told DH on Friday that I was worried that my hormones were just off. Sure enough, my period started 2 weeks early. I had thought it was time for a pregnancy test but Saturday's discovery proved that would not be necessary. I'm sad about it. I want another baby but I have to trust that God knows best and just deal.
As part of dealing I send Sunday in bed. I was cramping so badly. I hadn't hurt like that in ages. I missed church on Easter. I was just in too much pain. On the upside, my energy is back.
Today I ran my Week 7 Day 1 of Couch-to-5k. It felt so good to run. Just run and think. Think it out and keep running. This week has 3 25-min runs. It felt good to run. I didn't run very fast but unlike my last run with stomach cramps, this was easy and I kept a steady pace. My hip isn't hurting anymore. I'm stretching. I'm adding planks, sit-ups and push-ups. Not too many just a couple to start building up my upper body. So I ran off the weekend.
Here is Social Bliss from Saturday's jig. You can actually see Ravebaby on stage dancing with Girlilla and the Tutu crew.
