I'm back from the dead.... kinda!  I'm sorry I've been MIA.  I got super yucky sick this weekend off the cough syrup medicine that my doctor prescribed me for night time.  Such a bummer.  So... in retro-spect, I feel much better, even though I feel EXACTLY like I did before I took it.  Funny how that works.

So, this morning, as I was getting ready for work, it dawned on me that I haven't done any type of exercizes since Tuesday? of last week.  That's a whole week of nothing.  I'm a total loser.  Need to get back on the ball.  But, on the postive side... I haven't done anything that could re-injure my leg.  Yeah me!

Im getting something myself. My throat is itchy and nose is running.

Walter - I hope you don't get it! Not fun. I hate the whole "there is nothing we can give you to make you better, and hopefully you don't get pneumonia" thing the doctor has told me. I feel like I have my hands tied. Sorry... random venting.

Good to see that you are alive! If only you could recover from this nasty bug...I guess it makes it easier to stay off the leg....

Why are you going to work sick? Is Burt cracking the whip again?

From Burt on Tue, Dec 09, 2008 at 15:22:13

Unless she brings a note from the mortician, she better be here.

Yay, I have a friend in the loser club! Both girls took turns with a stomach virus, and then I got it for two days. Other than that I've been doing my random workouts. But I still feel pretty worthless. I decided to get back to the blog to pull myself out of this funk. Because the only thing worse than being a loser is being a funky loser :(

I'm glad you got the rest you needed. What are you going to do first to get back into the swing of things?

From Camille on Tue, Dec 09, 2008 at 15:49:07

Mike - Yes... he is a slave driver... meanie! :o)

Burt - so you mean if I'm dead... I get the day off! :o)

Rachel - I don't know. Tonight isn't looking too promising because I have scheduled Board of Reviews (scouts) from 6 until 8:45. (anything after 8 is considered late for me). Maybe some yoga. What are you planning on doing?

Tonight both girls dance at the same time for an hour and a half, so I am going to the gym for that time. I am going to bike then do weights. I am determined. The girls are in a carpool now, so I don't have to wait until they are done at dance. The temptation is there to just come home, put on jammies and fold laundry. But I am determined to hit the gym for at least an hour today!

Don't forget, even 30 to 45 minutes of stretching is a great workout. When I get home at night and I'm super tired, I try to stretch for at least a half hour. It's a lovely, lazy way to be productive :)

A whole lot of nothing for a little bit is a good thing! Get yourself well!!!!
