Aftermath

I got the bare minimum 6 hrs of sleep before the alarm went off. At least temps are a balmy 57F when I start the car in the dark. It takes me forever to get myself on the elliptical and even then, I'm pedaling distracted because I'm in the middle of a text conversation with an alcohol treatment center. My husband got pulled over for a DUI last night and with stricter impaired driving laws, he stands to lose his license, which would be catastrophic since he drives to airports in other states and his schedule is erratic and unpredictable. Worse, the court appearance is for tonight and this is only slightly ridiculous because the case hasn't even made it's way to the DA's desk. Yes, I've had to contact an attorney as well.

So I'm half-assed pedaling the elliptical while texting. But it's warm and humid so working up a sweat is no problem. And the Core routine is routine although I did promise myself that I'd look at alternative planks that might not exacerbate my sciatica. Now, if only I could remember what they are and how to do them right when I'm in the Aerobics Room and ready to actually do them! Click here for that article.

I have time to do Triceps today and I use the bigger 1/2 lb discs. My elbows complain a bit so I add more rest time between sets and get it all done. Dogs want to go to the park even if there's no one to play with. Overcast skies with patchy fog and intermittent drizzle means a lot of dog folks stay home. Not us! A little weather never hurt anyone...
