SBF2: Reboot boogaloo...Dec 13

MM, stress is not to be underestimated. Powerful effect on our poor immune systems.

Today is (hopefully, if the teacher is well again) Zumba at noon. In case the instructor is ill, I'm putting the DVDs into the player and moving the ottomans (this is what I have to do to have room to workout at home...move furniture) so if she's not there again, I come straight home and do Zumba here. (I slacked Thursday due to a sick teacher...looking to avoid a repeat) On the way home, I'm stopping to get the rest of the supplies for dinner at home, then, it's listening to my husband on the radio, and going to my boss's house to drop off all of my graded assignments (this is annoying to me, and I'm semi-pouty about it.) Then, home to rest/warm up. Snowing today, and it was bitterly cold yesterday. The weather has been consistently shaving off about 2,000 steps a day. I'm thinking of adding in a daily 20 minute at home dancing session to balance it out until spring comes.

Semi-pouty, boogaloo.:flowerforyou:

Made brisket last night. Slow cooker on for 7 hours. To be honest I didn't know what I was doing, but it tastes ok. It's very fatty, and I didn't think it would be so. Maybe I can cut it off or something. Anyway, a good experiement. I'm going to do laundry today (now) and going to see Black Swan tonight with a friend. Will do some walking part way home after flick. Feeling very isolated lately - I know, it's by my own choice. I realised yesterday I hadn't been to the gym since my crying incident. oysh... How can I break that block I wonder.
The cold has pushed me indoors too V. I am good for about 20 minutes at a time. My boots are old too and not so great for the walking. I am going to wait till after Xmas to see if I can get a deal somewhere. Maybe M.E.C. or something.

I've decided that on Xmas eve and Xmas day I'm going to go on a movie marathon down at the AMC theatres - just buy like six movies and indulge....will likely bring a picinic too. (it's hard to get through this time of year - movies help!)

I live in a 29 floor apartment building so I 'should' be walking up the stairs. But I'm not. there's a lot of stuff, I'm not doing. I guess we have to come to these things in our own time, and tell the naggy voices to piss off.

Looking forward to rebooting tomorrow.

hugs for boogaloos.

SJ,
the only way to break through that block is to go back to the gym. Claim your power, and do it.

I used to walk up the stairs when I lived on the seventh floor. Here's how I did it: I started by walking up to the second floor to take the elevator the rest of the way, then the third, then the fourth, etc....Alternately, you could see how far you can go.

Also, Black Swan is one of the best films I've seen in a long time...creeepy and beautiful.
