MIA for two weeks

Sorry, I've been in a life funk for two weeks. I haven't run for two weeks either. My left quad has a knot in it that I can really feel when I'm running, and it still bothers me day-to-day! GRRRR. I'm going to go see my massage therapist to see if she can break up the knot. 

I wonder if it has to do with my orthotics, I read on the Runner's World forum that if your body has changed, or you change your gait, it might pay off to get a new pair. My current pair is almost 6 years old. When I got it casted, I was (eek) about 30 lbs heavier. I've also been pregnant twice with significant weight gains for both kids. My pair is the hard plastic old-style anyways. And I've got about $200 in my flex spending health benefits account that expires at the end of the year. :-)

I went to Canada's Scrapbooking for Kids weekend last week. BOY what FUN! It was nice to go scrapping with the sister-in-law and to meet up with my online friends. I wish I could scrap every weekend! :-)
