I haven't had too much to say the past few days (no driving force). Nothing new is going on right now. I'm starting to wonder if I'm ever going to be able to run again...stupid Achilles. So I took Friday off to have a weekly dinner with Junior (oh man I ate like crap, but I did well throughout the week). And I was going to get up and go to spin class on Saturday morning, but I slept in.
Ahhh, all the things I didn't do. Well let's talk about the things that I did do.
I took two days to rest my body. I took time to catch up on my sleep. Today, Sunday, I did an hour of P90x. Way to go me! I chose the plyometrics workout, although some of the jumping moves, after a while, I had to modify, or just skip them, and I did squats instead. Look out hot butt! Ha! I also took myself out to breakfast this morning, and I spent time in bed, and relaxed and read a book. I also found two new books to read, and I went in to Play It Again Sports to look for a yoga mat, and a step. They had one for $45 dollars. But I decided to hold out a little longer. It wasn't exactly what I wanted. I don't know why I had been putting it off for so long. There is another one near work, so if I get a few extra minutes, I will stop in there tomorrow to see what they have.
Still, I have a driving force, and it doesn't revolve around anyone else anymore. It revolves around me, and what I want. It revolves around where I am trying to go, and what I am trying to accomplish. It's my will power, my drive, and my force that are moving me into my future. Whatever uncertain future that may be. This may mean that I have to rethink certain goals.
Today's success: Making it through an hour of P90x
Today's setbacks: Saying it doesn't really bother me to be alone all the time, but it does. I really want cake. Really really want cake.
Hey Courtney, you're not alone. You have us followers of you blog to keep you company!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great weekend. I want to try the P9ox too! It looks like a really great workout! We have so, much in common!
I just attempted to do a ballet workout. It looked really pretty and graceful when they did it, but unfortunately, not when I did it! Lol. I won't give up though. It made my thighs and butt burn, and places I didn't even know I had! So I'll definitely do it again. I think it'll become one of my favorite workouts! That, and yoga! And the treadmill! Can't wait to jog though, like you!
What kind of cake?
My brother's coworker's girlfriend had the DVDs, and we burned them! Maybe your library would have them? They are so expensive, but I see them on Craigslist frequently.
ReplyDeleteWas the ballet workout a DVD or a class? I still just don't have the guts to go to a class at the gym. As long as it burns, right? My hip flexors are so crazy sore today from the 8 million squats of yesterday.
Cake...there was some at work today! It was marble cake where it was a layer of cake, icing, cake and then icing! Amazing! I just wanted cake period!
