We went to the gym this evening and it felt pretty good for the most part. I know I lost some weight around the time of my last surgery but have recovered about 5# of it back, and looking to gain another 10#. It will take me a while I think because I'm not going to be so obsessed about it.
My legs feel great from all the exercise I put them through. I did some squats and lifted weight bars while lying back on a bench. I'm hoping that is less strain on my abdomen than lifting dumbells, and also I can lift heavier weights. I'm really tired now and have some discomfort in my entire abdomenal area. It will be interesting to see how I feel tomorrow.
Today was laundry day - I carried the 2 baskets of wet laundry across the street separately, but brought back the folded & dried things with the 2 baskets stacked one on top of the other. I couldn't have made it in one trip if I lived even one house down from my own.
It didn't get out of the 70's today but felt cool because of the constant breeze. I have my Lasko heater warming me up for a few minutes. I just drank a protein shake and got chilled a bit. After a couple of nice days like this the temps will climb, eventually staying in the mid 90's range for a while - too darn hot!
That's it for tonight. I'll probably be lazy for most of tomorrow.
- Exercising
I'm feeling pretty good today, and still experiencing the after-effects of working out at the gym last night. I'm still taking it relatively easy so as not to aggravate my ribs, but what I do sure has me feeling great. There is a machine...
- We Finaly Got Rain!
Probably not much rainfall, but what we got is sure welcome. The temps won't get out of the upper 50's today and I'm chilled, but when I go out in a few minutes I will be able to wear a new rain jacket I bought. It is warm even...
- I Definitely Overdid It Today
I washed three large loads in my washer and carried them one by one across the street to hang them out on the line. Wet clothes are heavier than dry, and wet towels are much heavier than dry. I had a full load of towels that I've put off...
- I Want Spring Back!
This is about as hot as I like it - 83degrees! The next 3 days are going to be in the 90's but we'll be back in the 70's next after that. I hate hot weather! I think I'm past needing prescription pain meds, but I did take an...
- Cooler Weather
Today turned out to be in the 60's with the sun shining most of the day. I did 2 loads of laundry and had it hanging on the line - about 3:30 pm I looked out and the sky was dark with clouds. I got the clothes off the line and folded,...
