Hello and welcome back to Middle Ground.

I'm Jo and I'm Caroline.

And we're so excited to get started on this one.

Caroline has been begging.

I'm so pumped, guys.

Yeah, since even before we started the podcast that we do an episode on all things, pet peeves.

So, um, we're excited, but for usual, we're going to start with our grounding moment from the week.

So Caroline, what was your grounding moment this week?

So mine was definitely

today this morning. I went to my workout, my swim workout, and it was really, really hard.

And I was like, oh my gosh, and kind of in this negative mindset, a little bit in the middle of it.

And I was like, okay, let's get out of this. It's going to be good and then I finish it strong and then afterwards I felt so good and so like refreshed and ready for my day

and so yeah I think that was mine I love that I miss swimming for that very reason yeah um I got to go

on a walk for the first time in two weeks because my toes been broken.

Oh, yeah.

Everyone around me keeps forgetting that my toes broken.

I do forget. Every single day.

It's not bruised anymore, but it still hurts really bad, and I can't wear tennis shoes still.

I haven't put them on for like 15 minutes or something but if I walk around in them it hurts um but

matt and I went on a walk in my burk and stock and we made it around the neighborhood and I was so

thankful and you don't realize you just take so much for granted every day and then you hurt yourself

and um thankful that my body is healing and thankful that I'm getting my ability to go on long
