How is this Sunday Night?

 I woke up feeling great.  

Which lead to a lot of chores getting done. 

Which lead to over 10,000 steps. 

Which lead to a total fat burn workout on my Cubii2.  That was 30 minutes.

Which lead to 2 out of 5 knitting work in progress projects getting finished tonight.  

All in all a good day.  

Now for another goodnights sleep.

Which will lead to another almost pain free busy day tomorrow.  

Life with Sjorgrins

 I am a little shocked that none of my older friends have had a 3rd dose of the COVID19 vaccine yet. Nor are they currently eligible.  I really feel like the odd woman out. My goal is to be as healthy and active as possible. To push the limits where ever possible.  I know it’s not always possible.  Just the fact that it was recommended makes me feel a bit fragile. I really don’t like to feel weak in anyway.  “I am woman, hear me roar”.

Yet here I sit at the kitchen table after midnight waiting for the aspirin to kick in. I know I should have taken it with dinner, but I wasn’t in any pain then.  My left shoulder is sore, the one I got the vaccine in.  All the while thinking as long as I am up I should be cleaning.  My other inclination is to go knit, but it’s past bedtime.  But what I really want the most is to be in bed sleeping.  I am starting to get sleepy so it is off to bed with me. I still hurt but the pain is getting duller.  

P.S. I did manage to get in 2 30 minute workouts today. 

My COVID19 Booster and more.

 I woke up at 4 am with an achy body.  My arm was to be expected. What I did not expect was achy joints in not arthritis pain.  The headache seemed to comeback too.  So I went to my comfort drink, chai with vanilla soy milk hot.  I added a few Carr’s Whole Wheat Crackers and a few Deglet Dates, I figured this was a better choice than going after junk food.  When the pain goes away I will go back to sleep.

After breakfast I went back to bed with a heating pad   I was achy and miserable most of the day. I spent most of the day sleeping or out of it. I was not that hungry.  Although after dinner it was like a switch turned of and I was feeling better.  I was also hungry so that meant we had our nightly popcorn early. 

I did manage to get 2 15 minute workouts done on Cubiio2.  I also put the tension back down to 2.  Tomorrow will be better. 

In knitting news I am beginning to wonder if by the time I get the summer hand knit tank top finished if it’s going to be too big because of all the inches that I am losing.  If so, someone is going to get a nice top.  No I will not make it again.  I think I will blame the pattern for not anticipating my loss of inches.  As a knit ware designer this sounds very reasonable to me.  Just don’t expect it in my patterns.   

Well I have a day of catching up to do tomorrow.  So it’s time to call it a night. 

A Very Busy Day part 2

Today I managed a full workout.  Then I had planned on a cleaning spree in the storage room for 2 hours.  I lasted a whole 70 minutes.  The good news is that I have made a dent in the clutter.  I have also decided not to work in there again until Friday or Saturday.  This will give my body time to rest and recoup.  I will need to get it a bit cleaner and dust free before I let John help in the cleaning. It is very dusty in the storage room. Hopefully it will only take a few more cleaning secessions before we can get John a work bench. 

Eric was so cute this afternoon. I told him that I was tired and needed a nap. He spent the next 90 minutes holding my hand in a very tight grip so that I would rest.  I even tried a caffeine boost while I was sitting with Eric. Unfortunately it did not work.  I landed up taking a nap anyway.  

John was wonderful and brought home dinner. I am finally winding down for the day. I have a busy day tomorrow too.
