MLK weekend and the ice storm. And the purple toenail from R2T100 is gone.

Friday full rest
Saturday RUN 5 miles in 47 mins
Sunday RUN 6.2 miles in 54 mins
Monday RIDE 17? miles in 60 mins, indoors

A major ice storm named Jupiter (coincidentally the name of my neighbor's white dog, who was running loose Thursday night with the kids ineffectively calling after it Juuuuuuu-piter!!!!) was set to ice the area with up to half inch of ice so this was a off-sched weekend.

Friday came to work early to get stuff done, then vet, then a few food errands in case the power did go out, then home to see what happens. We got some ice. But Sugar was terribly unhappy with her bandage and became a snarling snapper when I came hear. Why does this stuff always happen on a Saturday night, I wondered. Forshadowing....

Saturday I managed to remove the bandage and get a cone on her. This took most of the morning and in walking her I realized that my plan to ride indoors would be a waste -- It was nice out so I should run. So I did, and got my Walgreen's errand taken care of. Also stopped at the store for some pork rinds and plantain chips. My R2T100 replacement sticker arrived in the mail before lunch, love it! And in my shower I noticed that my purple toenail form R2T100 (left foot 4th toe) was gone! It didn't grow out, it just was gone. Further looking showed that the old nail has been replaced by a new one underneath and the old one was lifting away, which allowed the dried blood to wash out. My toenail was in a Chyrsalis, HAHA!

Sunday same deal, still nice out so I went for a run. Felt really good, but getting a little bored at home. Got the weight bench from TV and had a short visit with them :)  That night had a little too much to eat, not sure if this played into Monday's woes?

Monday I planned to make a mostly normal day by going to work. Indoor ride, drove in because of rain, spent part of work day making The Bee's Buzz compilation CD -- 6 hours of music from 2010-2016! Awesome! Then home with bad gut pain -- gas I'm guessing (confirmed on Tuesday morning) and I'm not sure what set that off? Too many berries at brekkie? Too much butternut? It wasn't large amounts, so the combination of them?  Unknown, but reminded me of how bad it used to be when I had symptoms like this all the time.
