Wow I can't believe that I have not written in two months. Things have been crazy I have been up an down on the scale and with my emotions too. I think I have been from one extreme to the other. But I am not giving up.
I was doing good then got sick the first week of March and got back off track again. I spent the whole week, for the most part, on the couch feeling like I wanted someone to just run over me and put me out of my misery.
The next week was spring break and I was on staycation. I had planned on going to the gym EVERYday and keep get back ahead of things (that was plans before I got sick). The most I got done was the day I painted on the kitchen. A lot of climbing and stretching was good. :D By Friday that week I did make it to the gym and got in about an hour or so of swimming. The next few weeks only got in a Saturday swim. But I did end up on a positive note. This past Saturday I did get in a GOOD swim!! I made it 2 miles. That in itself was a record distance for me at one time. It took me 2.5 hours to get it in but I did it. I was close to going more, since I didn't have any place I HAD to be, but I stopped. By the time I got done with my shower my arms were aching. ACHING!! I came home and sat down on the couch for a few minutes and I really didn't have the energy to raise my arms.
The rest of the day was on the run. Literally. I had lunch with my daughter and then off for some shopping. I am not the typically female that loves to shop but I got it done. I let my daughter talk me into trying on a few things that I normally wouldn't wear. I did come up with something a lil more dressy than I have been wearing but not as dressy as some of what she had me try on. I'm just a lil tomboy still lol
Then it was off to get things she needed to go with her dress. So the rest of the day was ON THE RUN. We went to way too many stores and with all the things I had to do I was gone til late. I started my day at the gym at 8:00am and was not home till 7ish that night. But I wasn't done yet. While the kids went on a pizza run I cleaned up the living room. I thought no more than I ate for the day and as much as I had done I would be good for a few slices of pizza.
Sunday was a relaxed Easter Sunday, I even got in a short nap lol
So April is starting out better I played hookey from work and took a vacation day yesterday. I got in a good swim. A whole 1.25 miles lol. Its actually about my average swim when I have time. Next week I start a new work schedule and will be hitting the gym BEFORE work. At FIVE am!! I can get in about an hour each morning and that will get me back ahead of my schedule for my 100 miles for the year. I am currently at 27.5 miles for the year. Yeah me!!
Ok for now that kinda catches ya up on me. Stand back, say a prayer and watch me go!!
