Week 3, Day 3 of 200 Squats Challenge & a rainbow, too.

My right knee is hurting a bit, but it beats the HECK out of the left kidney pain I had experienced earlier today and the pain in the butt I've spent time with today (no, not Mandy).

I did 173 squats today. 65 were consecutive. My knee hurts. Knee usually gives out before the muscles get too wobbly. Still don't think I'm up for "Spinning" class any time soon.

We've had the weirdest weather here. It's generally cold in NW Ohio in late fall and early winter, with some dustings of snow, but this year we had a white Christmas. Now, on NYE, it was 55ºF and thunderstorming. I've never seen a rainbow on New Years Eve before and today Kiddo spotted one out the window that I would've been too busy grumbling to notice without her. I love that kid.

Rainbows are good omens for me. I saw one June 21, 1987. That was the day that my (now) husband was pronounced clear of cancer after his battle and near-death from Non-Hodkins Lymphoma. I don't know what great news this rainbow will usher in but I'm hoping it's the sale of two houses, and a future of more good health and happy times for my family and friends.

Happy New Year!
