This morning is the same. My body is itching to sweat, itching to get a heart rate up. Absence makes the heart grow fonder - even with the treadmill!!
The other sweat is not so fun. SUMMER. It's here. Hot, humid and no fun. Commence the 6 months of complaining. Sorry, I'm born and raised in the northern states and this is yucky.
I'll need to modify running with Duke. Maybe 2 times a week, up early and ready to go? Not sure if that's even too much heat. I'll have to see. School is out this week so I'll figure things out for next week.
Eating was really good yesterday. I craved veggies and veggies won the menu for the day (mixed with some lean protein). Today is the same. I'll be detoxing in the next couple of days. The bright side is I already feel crappy from the cold, so maybe I won't notice. Get it all over at once.
On the dog front ... meet little Louie Winston V (part French, part English and the 5 for his age). Then he can be called Louie V - so clever (you can tell my kid is in marketing).
Yesterday was crazy with him. He was scared and fought with my dogs like crazy. By last night things had settled down. He had a good night in the crate. Neutering didn't go well and he has a large incision. We got him a ring (instead of that horrible plastic cone). Poor little man.
The sad news is he has a pretty serious heart murmur that might be too serious for my kids to manage. They love him already though. Ugh. Stay tuned.
Back to ME ...
There is something so nice about new beginnings. I feel like NOW is a new beginning. Sadly, I'm still an all-or-nothing girl so starting my big re-do when I had a huge trip looming doesn't work for me. I have NOTHING big on the calendar all summer. I can begin without a time table or a rush. It feels good (and it will get hard, but today is just good).
I WILL GET BACK!
On that note, I better get to walking Duke before the sun's totally up. Later gators!
