My Back hurts. It more than hurts, its torture just to breath! It was so bad yesterday that I didnt make it in to work. I am Such a Wimp! Since I am getting older, I dont like pain very much. In fact, I really really really hate it and have no tolerance for it.
Yesterday, whilst dying on the couch, I was thinking; I really need to slow down. I need to just sit and rest for a little while every day, and not go go go until I fall into bed exhausted. That is what is killing me; I dont know how to take a break and rest. (I will attribute this to my parent, they are the same way)
So all fetchin’ day yesterday, I was on the couch, just lying there (with an occational pee break) thinkin’ and thinkin’. I dont want to get old, but I AM getting old and I have to get my brain to accept that so that my body doesnt fall apart. Its a good thing I dont play piano anymore, cuz yesterday I would not have been able to sit on the bench.

So here I am today; I did make it in to work, but just sitting in my chair is torture. I hope I can make it thru the day. Oh yeah, I did take a pain pill that my Mom had left over from her Knee Surgery, sooooo, I hope it will kick in soon. ugh.

Well its been 3 weeks since I started on the Treadmill, so today, being the start of week 4, I switched to the Stepper. O.M.G. I lasted 13 minutes. I wanted a change and I sure got one! The stepper is a much harder than the treadmill. Plus, I only burned 87 calories. They say that you have to change your routine every 3 weeks as your body gets used to the same ol same ol. So I guess I am going to stick with this for the next 3 weeks. I gained 2 lbs over the weekend, so now I have to loose those 2 lbs plus some extra to stay on track. ugh. I really hate Mondays.

009 This weekend we upgraded our fish tank courtesy of my sister. She had a crab in there, but after it molted it went to the other tank w/the rest of her crabs, heeheehee. So we had a busy weekened cleaning fish tanks and fish stuff.

Plus, it rained all fetchin’ weekend. The grass has never been greener. I really would like some warmth out here. and . . . I am still in my winter jammies, totally sucks.
Ah well, the weekend is over in a bit, lets hope this week goes by faster than last week. *sigh*

May

I am So So glad that May has arrived. Even tho it is pouring rain outside, 40 degrees and a blizzard in the mountains, I am still happy May is here. I guess its a mental thing, but in my mind, Winter is Over!
There is only 5 weeks of school left and the last week doesnt really count cuz the kids never do anything anyways. I, on the other hand, seem never to get any time off. With sales training at work, meetings and sick people, we are pretty busy. Which is good! but still, a break now and then would also be good. Thank goodness it is Friday !
