…dodging bullets and drinking lotsa coffee these days....been hectic busy! I found some Yerba Mate Tea today, so I am hoping to cut back on some of the Caffeine intake and keep it down to 2 cups a day!
Lucky for me....with all sorts of stuff going on......I've still been making time to workout. Thank Gd!!! Cuz the bullets seem to be coming faster and faster these days. I’m sure it’s not me….
Let’s see…I did swimming yesterday with Larissa, and she is like a freakin torpedo in the water I tell ya....keeping up to her was insane! I was a little crybaby with my cramped foot....and I was more than willing to tell anyone who would listen -- no one really cared. I hate little foot cramps....I would rather just die! How annoying! Then I got gas...again...no one was interested in hearing about it.
So after my swim...I pretty much came to the conclusion that I am NOT like the rest of the girls. They were all in the change rooms with their make up and hairdryers and doing themselves up...I threw my wet dread lock like hair into a pile and walked out....tried to wipe away as much as I could of my smeared mascara as I could from under my eyes! I may go back to swimming next Wednesday Morning, if my hair washing schedule permits. Yes, there is a hair washing schedule!! Can’t be washing your hair every damn day like there’s nothing to it. Also, you can’t be going to swimming after hair washing, or even the day after hair being washed b/c then you’d have to wash it right after and would be breaking the 11th Commandment of Thou Shalt NOT wash thy freaking hair everyday. Look it up…I’m not kidding. Maybe I should just become the dreadlocks queen and not ever have to worry about my hair again!
This is a gym people...not a beauty pagent!
One day I swear I am gonna bring popcorn and a little bean bag and I’m gonna set up a post in there and just laugh at everybody…out loud.
But getting a little deeper here and slightly more emotional....It did touch me a little when I walked around the gym, as some people are obviously just starting out or getting back into the groove of their fitness journey, and all I could think about was that time and place where I was....and how hard it was....and how much persistance it took to get going. I was really proud of them, yet it reiterated how much I don't ever want to go back to that place I once was....it ultimately was a nice "wake up and smell the Yerbal Mate!"
So as a result........I go home all jazzed supreme on endorphins and felt like I could workout another 2 hours...so I pumped out a run on the mill....got off and the energy just zapped right out of me....
That's when you know you have had a good day!
