Happy Summer! Not....

OK, I apologize; but I was in no mental or physical mood last night to write a blog...maybe it was from all my cucumber cake:)  Actually during our circuits yesterday morning I was wondering why the hell am I doing this for another week!  Why didn't I just leave with my husband so I could sit in a tent during the rain for three days? Well, I didn't and I needed to suck it up. I was a very unhappy camper when we went on our hike. They told us we needed to really wear our hiking boots! BS....you really don't need your hiking boots when the majority of your hike is on a paved bike path! My feet and my hiking boots do not get along very well. I took out the orthotics and that didn't help at all either! I was in excruciating pain when we returned! I was in my bed by 7:30 p.m......

It is a good thing that each day starts anew and when I wake up I am thankful that I am here! The weather today for the first day of summer was not at all delightful; but you know I don't think summer comes here in the North Shore until August! Our morning walk was very windy....I was so proud of myself because I believe I ran at least half of it...actually I didn't have a choice because when I would stop and walk I was getting a sharp pain on the side of my left leg...and it felt so much better to run; so that is what I did....I don't know if many would call it running as opposed to jogging!

My favorite circuit of the week was today: LEGS...not! Once again I will tell you how much I despise doing lunges; actually my knee where I had surgery despises them. My knee swells up pretty good after the leg circuits. Today we did relays and were they challenging...but I think we rocked the house!  No afternoon hike today (we were all very sad and crying.....) it was poring rain; so we went to the gym and did our cardio for 115 minutes......Leif said we were going to do 90 minutes, but he doesn't really know how to tell time; so we went a little longer.  I was not going to complain; because I did not want any one-on-one time with him at the weights because he always makes it hurt so damn bad! If anyone out there has a Hello Kitty sippy cup or Hello Kitty watch that they don't want anymore...I would like it because I am going to give it to Leif for his birthday or Christmas!

Day 2 is done...the group of new girls/ladies are amazing! I am always amazed at a newcomer and how hard they work and how much they can do... Today I said I think I am getting weaker; because the damn wall sit..killed my legs today and 2 weeks ago I was able to do it for 3 minutes~

Tomorrow there is a 100% chance of rain all day!  I think we are looking at a 2 hour pool work-out:) 

I thank everyone for the birthday wishes.....I did call my mom the night of my birthday because she TEXTED me Happy Birthday....I said, What the Hell!  You can't even call me on my birthday!  She said she didn't know if I would be in bed...I will forgive her for this one!  We were the ones who taught her how to text:)

Until Next Time, PEACE OUT!
