What are the positives of this hernia situation? What are some "to do" list things? What are things I can do while recovering?

-you'll run again

- the appointment is near

- time off could be good for your feet (numb top of foot issue)

- use it to lose weight, you want to be faster, carry less

- experiment with ketogenic diet

- focus on Jeet Kune Do

- find some friends 

- meditate, meditate, meditate

- rehab with Colby while Annabelle is at childcare; walk, hike, explore

- attempt to find other stay at home dads with like minded kid friendly interests (hiking, biking?)

- get OUT with the kids

I think I'm coming to terms with a mandatory lay off. It sucks but it has to happen. Damn I've been down though.
