    Seriously though. My body hurts all the time. I am tired. It might be late winter depression. It might be trying to do too much.

    I have lost the joy I used to have in working out. I still love the idea of being someone who lifts weights. I like that it became part of my identity. But it might be time to do something different for awhile.

    I’m not changing anything just yet, but I think in a week or two I’m going to switch to walking and hiking as my primary exercise. I already do those of course, but they are the only parts of my physical activity I’m still enjoying so I might as well go whole hog.

    I was scared to admit this to myself.

    Do you ever deload or take a week off?
    Sounds like over training...

    But your plan sounds rather nice either way 💕

    I deload every fourth week. It was “supposed” to be every fifth but I learned to go with my body’s natural cycle. PMS and all that.

    It used to be I hated to deload & only did it because it was good for me and after I was rarin to go. But it’s not working anymore. I don’t feel strong and refreshed after.

    I love what lifting does. Hopefully I will love how it feels one day again.

    Why is it so easy to get disappointment from the expectations we place on others?!

    This is why I try to expect the very least from others

    Same. Most of my disappointment is self generated.

    I think I’m reaching critical mass,
    may need to shut down.

    Confession....someone was a jerk to me a few weeks back so I “disagreed” with a few of his posts. They were dumb posts too but normally I’d just ignore them if they were dumb. So...yeah, people disagree with posts for reasons like that.

    If someone’s a jerk just laugh it off and walk away hunni 🤗

    But sometimes being petty feels sooooo good. :lol:

    😂😂😂 I’m practicing not biting back!
    P.s A guy just said im like a dead horse 🤷🏻‍♀️haha

    LOLOL why would he say that?

    Because trying to get me to chat to him is like beating one .. I prefer ice queen though lol

    love this look

    why?

    ...... because it makes 'finding a mens restroom' a non-issue.

    I was going to say you possibly couldn't pay any man enough to wear that. But obviously, they already did. Weirdest craziest *kitten* I ever saw on anybody, and living through the 60's and 70's I've seen some weird and crazy schtuff.

    Wondering why I always wait til I’m in fumes to put gas. Will I never learn my lesson. Please, please make it to the gas station!!!

    This doesn’t happen to me because my sister borrows my car regularly and always puts gas in

    Girl. I post a duplicate pic to this in my Snap stories on a bi-weekly basis. Only reason I don’t post weekly is because I’m embarrassed. This is a regular occurrence. But but BUT, I don’t run out! The worst one was a few months ago entering Minneapolis, highway, rush hour. That one made me a little nervous. 🙈

    ROFL!!!! I just made it to the gas station. The truck started really vibrating rofl. To make things worse I can just see myself pushing the truck with heels Hahahaha. My March goal is to keep the tank at least half full! LOLOLOL
