My Life Thus Far
I Feel Amazing
So, I never made it to the gym this morning. And I never went on that ambitious run I routed out. Snookums came home soon after and told me I needed to have a rest day. He must have been right because I passed out and slept until it was time for me to get ready for work at 3pm! I needed it, though. Just this morning I'd read an article about over-training in one of the weight lifting blogs I like to read and I had a few of the symptoms. Rationally I know I should take rest days, but it's SO hard to miss an opportunity to work out. I just love it so much! It's not even about losing weight (that's a positive side effect). I used to take a handful of anti-depressants daily. Now, there's no need for them. Mentally, emotionally, I've never felt so good. Not just a day here, a day there, but consistently. On a daily basis. I feel amazing.
I'm not left with much writing material today, since I did nothing the first half of the day and worked the other. It was still a great day even without the workout, but tomorrow I won't be skipping (unless I decide to jump rope)! Sometimes when I skip a workout I feel a little down (which is why I tend to not take rest days). I think since work was a bit busy I got in plenty of movement to compensate.
I think I'll get ready for bed now. I need to make an effort to get to bed at a decent hour at least a few times a week. Might as well start now.
