Mutable Weather

Torrents of rain this morning. Blistering sun this afternoon. Summer in the northeast! I do pull-ups today and save the weights for tomorrow. At least I can get the reps in although I'm still not able to ramp up during cardio to get up to 2.9. That streak is over! 

The gym isn't as crowded as I expected it to be after Tuesday. Maybe the rain? But there are more unfamiliar women present. I took yesterday off and dropped the dogs off at a pet sitter to get them acclimatized to staying somewhere other than home. This sitter comes highly recommended by friends at the Bark Park. 

In past years with past pups, I've had dog sitters come to the house, but those folks have relocated out of the county and I don't know anyone else. Plus my pups are a mite bit finicky and difficult... There are several doggy daycares in town that do overnight boarding, but the one I had considered quickly got dismissed once I heard that no human stays overnight with the dogs, and a few dogs have gotten bitten. 

My left fifth metatarsal seems bruised and sore, distracting me while I pedal. (Yep, that's my excuse today.) And that's my "good" foot since it's not afflicted by bunions, wonky nerves and ligaments, hammertoes that sporadically spasm, recalcitrant callouses. Yesterday, I wore old "comfortable" shoes, Clarkes, and I still developed a sore spot just off the pinky toe. WTF?
