Big Day

Today was a very busy day. Finley and I started out bright and early to hit the gym one last time. Today was the last day that 24 Hour Fitness on Greenbriar is open. The brand new fancy gym opens tomorrow morning. I was so sad to leave this gym, it is perfect size and there are always so many interesting people there. I am not ready for working out a fancy gym and I hope Finley is okay with the new fancy gym's play area. I worry she might be overwhelmed, but hopefully she will like all the cool new stuff they have (touch screen computers!) The front desk worker let Finley choose a DVD to take home since they were just going to get rid of them all. She chose Finding Nemo. All the kids' area stuff was being thrown away, I tried to figure out a way to take the two play tables and chairs, but there was no way they would fit in my SUV. Bummer.

After that, we went to lunch at Cazadores with Miss Marianne (Joe's mom), Miss Shannon and baby Emily, Miss Chelsea and Miss Lisa with Gideon and baby Eden. Miss Lisa and I used to work together at the Rainbow Lodge 10+ years ago. We were both single girls back then.  How time flies. 

We then had to head to a podiatrist appointment. Finley loved the Lego table they had in the waiting room. The podiatrist determined I had a Neuroma, but wanted to do an ultrasound to confirm it. At this point it was nearly 3 pm and Finley hadn't had a nap. I told the nurse that I would prefer to come back next week without her since I was working on borrowed time. The nurses and front desk staff were fantastic. They watched her, gave her pink candy and played on the Lego table with her while my foot was being looked at by the ultrasound. I had to get a steroid shot (ouch) and get my foot wrapped up, but hopefully this will stop the pain. Finley was a total trooper and even made it through a quick stop by the grocery store on the drive home.
