Lemonade stands and poop muffins. Summer is in full swing.

Summer isn't complete without a lemonade stand. Throw in cookies, put it on the right street, and you make almost $50. I have a feeling my girls are going to want to have a lemonade stand with their cousins as often as possible!

 

We wrapped up the lemonade selling business just in time to grab some dinner and head to my grandpa's 93rd birthday party. As far as human beings go, he is one of the best. There aren't many better men out there.

 

My cousin figured it out and there were 4 of his 6 children, 9 of his 21 grandchildren, and 13 of his 31 great grandchildren there to celebrate. Who am I to question her math?

 

Every year, the girls and I make a list of fun things we want to do in the summer. Making these needs to be added to this year's list.

 

This morning I ran five miles. My calf hurt the entire time. It did ease up the faster I went, but I didn't have it in me to go very fast. And it turned into more of a dull ache after four miles, but I think I might cross traine tomorrow and see how it feels on Thursday.

 

I went to the doctor last Thursday, and he recommended ART. So Friday I went in and suffered through a 1-hour session.

In addition to my calf, he worked on a lump on the bottom of my foot that has caused me pain off and on and my sciatic, which has bothered me for a very. long. time. My foot is considerably better. And my calf and sciatic have definitely improved. I'm hoping one or two more visits really does the trick. The doctor said if I'm not almost back to 100% after three visits, there's something besides soft tissue issues going on, so keep your fingers crossed for me.
