Happy Hour Chatter

Its hard to keep a good woman down...and tonight I'm down.  I even cancelled my yoga classes tonight. What has me down? Stomach blues and headache woes. Hubster had it yesterday ...logic would say I got it from him.  Thanks honey! My stomach blues are subsiding but ended up taking my migraine medication a bit ago.  Though its helping some its not going away.  I hate migraines! Hope I get better so I can go to work tomorrow!

Yesterday was beautiful.  I picked up my mother in law and we had our usual Saturday outing to the grocery store then out for lunch.  Me with my customary bowl of soup and her with her 1/2 of a hot pork sandwich.  She was hungry cuz she gobbled it up in no time flat.  She needs it..I think she weighs 100 lbs IF she is lucky. I had planned to go to the gym, but then my nephew Blaine called and asked "what are you doing?"  When he says that, I always know he really doesn't care what I'm doing, but rather how he can relay to me that what he wants to do is far better than anything I may have planned.  It worked.  I picked Blaine up and up to WalMart we went to cruise the aisles for my much needed household items. While, I might add, he chatted me up and down the aisles.  My guy so likes to talk!  But he had me in stitches when he asked me, "Do you need any Red Solo Cups?"  I lost it right then and there!  Of course, he was said it i...

To snow...now?!  Don't know what to think about this.  Moisture is good but I'm not liking this stuff so much.  At least I don't have to be out in it feeding cattle or shoveling side walks or anything. Other than the white stuff, the day is going good...busy but good.  Thursdays are actually one of my favorite days...its a prelude to the weekend! Duh! Agenda tonight is to survive my training session with Jayme who promised to kick my ass.  I trust him to do it too! Im going to eat my nutritious yet unsatisfying lunch now!  Have a great day.

Ok, so most of you blog stalkers know me as a procrastinating perfectionist.  What is it again?  Definition by Sherry is as follows: "If I can't do it right, and in my time frame, I don't do it at all."   Makes perfect sense to me.  Or did.  Until recently. I'm trying to run.  (Trying being the operative word!).   I do well in the gym.  Outside...ya, not so much!  I went for a leisurely stroll around the park yesterday.  I was frustrated because I couldn't find my stride, I couldn't breathe "right", and it didn't feel good to me at all.  Here is where the "procrastinating perfectionist" rears it's ugly head.   Because I couldn't do it the way I WANTED or BELIEVED it should be, I wanted to give up.  See me...I want it and I want it now!! (Ok, so I'm also an impatient procrastinating perfectionist!) :) Thank gawd for friends though! I've read many of my "athletic" or "runner's" facebo...

I didn't say the words "I can't" to my trainer tonight...although I was seriously tempted as he kept raising the incline and increasing the speed of my treadmill interval workout tonight.  I don't know if he was blowing smoke up my ass or not, but he told me the treadmill workout I did tonight was one used as conditioning training by the Jimmies (football team).   I'm pretty proud of  the fact that: I didn't die  (that's pretty huge and important, I'd say!) I didn't quit I didn't say "I can't" He told me..."give me 100% and I'll give you 110% Sherry!  You got this!"   I may have lost my breath a few times, and taken a .45 second break (instead of .30)...but I jumped right back on the horse and did what he asked me to do.  Was I tired?  Hell ya! Was I dripping with sweat?  Undoubtedly Was I glad I finished?  Incredibly Was I proud of myself?  Words can't describe how I felt! I tapped in to my ps...
