Er ... I'm back ... again?

I know, it's been a week.  I was sick, I swear.  Ask anyone who lives near me: I'm sure they could hear my incessant childlike whining from a mile away.  (Not a good sickie.  I get wimpy.)

But I'm (mostly) better now, and so I'm going to start the C25K all over.  And this time, I'm going to make it to Day 2!!  (haha)

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming ...

Sorry I've been AWOL, folks.  I went on vacation for a week and forgot to post here that I'd be an absentee blogger for a while.  But I'm roaring to get back into the swing of things, especially since I got some decent exercise while on vacay: walking on the beach, at tourist attractions, to dinner, etc.  Can't really quantify it, but I feel like I did some good.

So lace up those shoes, peeps ... let's get movin'!

NERVOUS

I'm actually nervous about tomorrow's weigh-in.  Mostly because I don't know what might happen to my psyche if I weigh in and don't lose any weight again this week.  And I swore to myself that I wouldn't get so hung up on the pounds lost, but it's so hard when it's such an easy way to gauge success.

So anyway, I don't have anything more to report for today ... just keep your fingers crossed for tomorrow's weigh-in ...

Yeah ... um ...

As Robert Burns once wrote, "The best laid pans of mice and men oft go awry."  Actually, it wasn't that easily pronounced, to which anyone who's taken a course on British poetry can attest.

Anyway, I had every intention of getting up this morning, donning my walking shoes, and hitting the road with The Munchkin.  Instead, I woke up, got her up and fed her, let her play for about 30 minutes, then put her to bed and proceeded to sleep on the couch for three hours.  I thought I was over this cold, and now I'm fairly certain that I am, but I guess there was just a little bit hanging on.  The sleep definitely helped, and she slept the entire time that I did as well.  Guess we both needed some sleep.

So because of that, I didn't get in the workout I had intended.  I had to run a couple of errands after lunch, and after The Munchkin's afternoon nap I attempted to take her for a walk around the village, but torrential rains cut our walk very short.

I don't feel behind, though, and tomorrow's walk will feel good to get under my belt and help me back into the groove.

Taking a sick day

Hey peeps ... I'm not posting today as I'm tired and possibly coming down with a cold, thanks to The Munchkin.  I will try to post tomorrow.  I actually have some stuff to discuss, too.

You should anxiously await my return.  :-)
