I miss training on most off days. Especially on Sundays. One day is fine. Two in a row (Sat and Sun) and my body starts talking to me. I get antsy to lift something. And a vacuum doesn't count or help
I needed the nap more than I needed cardio. I don't get enough sleep during the workweek.

I hate my daughter today. Actually I hated her last night and told her so. It's all a blur....
She had her first college term paper due today. And was not ready. I pulled an all-nighter with her. She has to work at 7:20, class at 12:30, then she can pass out. I'm going to pass out after I take her to work, skipping my work and workout. Max has a banquet tonight and was going to be a no-show anyway. If he's available we'll do Fri/Sat instead of Thurs/Fri this week. If not, I'll do Fri/Sat
I never even pulled an all-nighter studying or preparing a term paper when I was in college. Now partying while in college is a different story

You need REM sleep and precious HGH happening. Grow girl grow.
OK...grumpy Old School grandpa Baldie says pushes are fine.
I am always on my daughters who coddle my grandkids. My son however is an A hole like me. He sent his son off to UMich and daughter to UOregon with the instructions "You two are on your own from here on out...3.0 no less, or you come home and get a job and go to community college at night". Both are close to 4.0s and grandson graduates in Sports Management here in about 5 months. He has a job with a major NBA sports agent waiting. His sister already is doing special needs teaching, her chosen profession.

contrast that with my oldest who will graduate in May from UVA with a 3.0 in econ/philosophy, but has absolutely no job prospects and will probably go to Costa Rica and play poker for a living

I hear what you're saying. She started a paid job last month. Worked 7am-6pm Tues and Wed. Had to work 7am-12 today before class. Tomorrow will be 7-6 again. I know her ass is dragging the floor. If this doesn't teach her to work in advance I doubt anything will. The choice of going to bed and most likely finding out the paper wasn't long enough with formatting errors or losing sleep and a day of work to help her out seemed obvious. Bad paper = bad grade = retaking class = more money. She wasn't happy that she had to use Mom's help. If she had tried to con or coerce me into doing her work I'd have told her good luck and gone to bed. But I will say my patience is not always in such large supply. I suggested a few months ago that she simply work until she decides what she wants to do for a career and puts the corresponding effort into college. That may still come to pass.

Woke up from a nap, eating, checking work emails, checking forums, then back to a nap.

But db reverse flyes are now on the shelf with kickbacks)

Hey Pam are you going to journal your food too
it might help if I could see what other girls are eating.
I have had a bad time of it this last few days getting food in.
It's cold and nothing seems appealing except coffee -
I did have oatmeal and whey for meal 1.*Live every moment __Laugh every day__and Love Beyond Words *
