Another Personal Record Blown Away

9:08 AM | 1 Comments

Good morning everyone! I've been without the gym since Monday, which is too bad because I was off to such a good start! Riley developed a fever Monday night and wouldn't sleep unless she was laying on me. Needless to say I pretty much didn't sleep Monday - Wednesday. Wednesday night was better, but I'd been without sleep so long it still wasn't enough. Last night was a much better sleep.

This morning I was determined to put in 5 km and I did it! I still can't believe it 1 hour and 5.1 km later I did it! I walked of course, but I did manage to jog a few minutes near the end so I could make it to 5 km in 60 minutes.

I'm so proud of myself! I even lost a pound this week and I must admit I have not eaten well. But I have managed to find ways of keeping active this week. Wednesday night I was home early and took my kids for a long walk. Thursday I started work early and helped move office supplies for over an hour and last night I walked home from the bus station.

An addition to my Sorry Blog from Monday:
This morning I noticed that it isn't just me who says sorry. I wish I could set up a tape recorder for a day and count how many times women say sorry. It is quite the epidemic. I myself said it only once this morning when I almost collided into another woman.

I'm So Sorry

Good Morning! I had a rough weekend. I was very bitchy and tired the entire weekend. Yet, this morning I feel great! I think I've figured out why my weekends haven't been as happy as they should be. February seems to be the hardest month fo the year for me. I had some major problems last February with depression.

Next weekend I'm going to keep getting up early to workout. I'll have to workout at home, but as long as I have a plan it'll be fine. Working out is definitely affecting my moods for the better and really I only benefit from working out on the weekends too. I will keep you posted.

You may have noticed my title...I'm So Sorry. I've noticed lately that I say sorry a lot! Especially at the gym and in the girl's change room. Why do people find they have to apologize for everything. I need to plug my hair dryer in why do I say sorry? Excuse me works just as well. Why do I say sorry when someone needs to get by me? How many times have I blogged that I'm sorry, for not posting or for being sick or for whatever? Sorry I bothered you, sorry I'm in your way. Why did sorry become the norm?

I realized saying sorry at the gym is because I feel like I don't belong. I need to remind myself I'm paying for this and i have as much right to be there as anyone else. I wonder how many times we say sorry more because we feel self-conscious or due to low self esteem. Something to ponder. I found another sorry blog you can read here.

My workout today was just cardio. Tomorrow I will do cardio and upper body.
