What I'm Reading This Week #31
Good morning and welcome to August. Time is so weird, isn't it. It's insane we're starting the 8th month of the year but yet if I thought back to where we started the year in snow, that seems like a lifetime ago. It's been a very long year yet seems to have gone fast - how does that work? Anyhoo, I hope you're ready to roll for the weekend and the week didn't drop kick you too hard. Once again our HOA was refusing to do their job and wanted to check the drainage. This problem is on our subfloor. ..above anyplace for drainage to be an issue with no gutters above it. Then the woman in power sits on emails all friggin' day and purposely sends things out on her way out the door so another day gets wasted. Oh the things the Mr and I say about her that I can't say here. I was shaking so bad Monday night I wanted to go out and rip the damn siding off myself but we worked out instead to try to work off the frustration. I called o...
That was some awesome chili and hit the spot after the workout. I am more sore than expected but we haven't done Tae Bo in a while so that'll do it. It is a good week for workouts so far though and that makes it worth it cause I feel great. I mean, honestly, soreness can be a good reminder that you have accomplished something too.
ReplyDeleteA hot shower is definitely in order to loosen things up for me. My plan going forward is four days of harder stuff at the beginning of the week and taper for recovery Thursday and Fridays.
DeleteWill you be able to snowshoe this weekend? It's been super windy here so I've been hiding in the house any time I'm not at work. I have a hard time hitting higher intensities when I work out at home, so I'm looking for a class to take a few times a week that will kick my butt.
ReplyDeleteI wish! In April, if you're not going to give me my required 4" base, don't bother. (That's what she said.) A stupid trick I use to bring the intensity at home is to pretend I'm being filmed for an exercise video or being watched by people expecting me to fall. LOL
DeleteSo glad you got so much accomplished! That's always a great feeling. We're due for 1-3 inches of snow this afternoon, but freezing rain this morning -- has me super stressed out because I'll be in it for work right at that time. Then the rest of the week is in the 50's - go figure.
ReplyDeleteThe main workout routine that kicks my butt every single time is Pilates. Any time I'm doing those moves and trying to engage/strengthen my core I'm dripping in sweat and shaking. LOL
