The Blah Phase

This past week I have been...well...blah towards everything.  Impartial towards getting healthy.  This doesn't mean I want to give up I just need to regain my drive.  I think it is with the added stress that occurred in our lives. Chris's car has already had some problems and it decided it no longer wanted to go into reverse.  We have a fairly steep driveway so the thought of it being stuck down there was not very calming.  I figured they could get it out but when I donated my Saturn to Habitat for Humanity after the stick shift died (it was stuck in 3rd gear) the tow truck driver said he was glad it wasn't parked down my driveway because he wouldn't be able to get it out (probably with the type of truck he had).  Luckily AAA was able to get it out of the driveway and they took it to a mechanic in Durham that we trust.  Well no surprises the car's transmission is dead.  Because I drive manual and my husband does not I have been the transportation for the both of us.  Let's just say...a tank of gas usually lasts me almost 2 weeks, and I used a half a tank in a days time.  Needless to say this has been an exhausting week since I am doing a lot more driving than I do.  We get the car back next week with the new transmission and I think soon my mind will be back on track.  I also found out my family members that are helping us with the trainers are willing for us to train 3 times a week instead of 2.  Honestly I am getting excited.  The only issue I am having is left knee pain.  I tried to buy a knee brace at Dick's Sporting Goods and lo and behold they do not carry them in my size.  I thought surely since it is unisex I could find one.  Let's just say I wish I can open my own shop for plus sized people, this would include for men, women, and children.  There are many overweight, obese people who want to get healthy and it would be nice to have the support of clothing and workout materials made for them.  I really wish I am business savvy and could just do this.  It hurts that it is this hard to find these things that can help me get healthy.  People make comments and scoff at those needing to lose weight but there is no support.  I know that it can be easy to give up just because of this reason.  When you need a knee brace, sports bra, workout underwear, etc. it needs to be easier to find than the internet.  When  you want to get healthy you want to start NOW not 5-10 business days for delivery.  If someone knows how I can start this business or wants to help, heck even if you do it without me, let me know.  It is needed.
