Love this: "Some blunders and absurdities, no doubt crept in."
The best thing I've done to get out of my funk is being productive. Physical, mental and just-for-fun. The calendar doesn't fill itself. It's active energy to make sure I have things to do. Give each day SOMETHING.
Today is a 6 mile paved trail walk with my neighbor. My back and leg are slowly mending and this adds activity to my morning workout AND some people time. No more hibernating.
A TMacFitness workout is also on Amazon Prime (only one though). I don't think I need to subscribe to his workouts after all between YouTube and Amazon. The warmup is about 8 or 9 minutes and then it gets down and dirty fast. Only a little more than 10 minutes, but I sweat and am tired after the workout. I'm still in a building phase after my injuries -- I'll need longer once I get back at it. It's a good way to get a quick workout in on days that are time crunched. Good use of my OTHER muscles that I like to forget exist. I did another yesterday and it was good (especially when you consider it was FREE).
If I can get back to regular running -- TMAC and boxing should be enough.
Pottery Barn is suppose to deliver my sofa today -- in the afternoon, but no phone call yesterday. I'll call later this morning. No one will be home until noon today. What are the chances of this getting screwed up?!? PB is off its game lately.
Tomorrow the cleaning crew is here. Then a coaching call with Holly an hour earlier so I can go to Tai Chi. I'm curious if I'll "feel" the same after the meditation again. The instructor is a healer -- for what that's worth. I believe some people have a gift, I don't believe everyone who gets a certification is a healer though. He also made a point to give his sales pitch about private healing sessions. The man has to make a living, but that makes me cautious of his intentions. Even with my suspicions, my leg feels better than it has in months.
Thursday my SNS break is over and back at it. I thought about waiting until October to start up, but I have a couple of things coming up which will tear up my nails if I don't have SNS on. This means no SNS over Christmas (most likely). I try not to do more than 3 in a row before I take a break.
We are watching our grand-dogs on Thursday too. They have a vet appointment near us and we are daycare for the day. Dropping at 6 o'clock. That's early -- my dogs will still be in bed!
Friday is a hike and picnic with my man and a foster home check way down south.
Something everyday on the calendar. I need to FORCE this on the regular. Yesterday afternoon I had a big urge to hibernate again. I regretted plans to walk today. Nope -- that's exactly my problem. Taking a morning walk doesn't over commit me at all. I need to be with people. Do things. I'm taking a little dip into the blues again and I have to watch -- that's when I hibernate and the blues becomes the only thing on my mind.
I had a crappy night's sleep. Waking up every couple of hours -- sneezing like crazy. Probably allergies. I finally got up at 5 o'clock. No point in tossing and turning. I'm doing a boxing workout before the walk this morning. It's time to start pushing forward on workouts -- slowly. Lord knows I don't want to step backwards with injury again.
PJ is adjusting to his new home and it seems positive. I'm still not 100% convinced he won't be returned, but I'm getting more confident. He's going potty outside and is slowly adjusting to her dog. He loves the roommates dogs, but is nervous about the big husky.
That's that for today. I hope DOING will blow this mood away again. Stay tuned - hah. Later gators.
