6 on the elliptical... starting to sound like a broken record. Kept it at a pretty high intencity pace. Then did arms and core work. Felt good to get a nice sweat on. Tomorrow, after work, I will be taken my daughter to the cornea specialist again to see how her eye is doing so I probably won't get to the gym. Keep her in your thoughts that her eye is getting even better then it was :)

5 miles at a higher intensity then .3 slower cool down on the elliptical. 20 minutes upper body weights then abs and stretching. Felt pretty good.

Update on daughters eye... Great news!! her eye has improved so much! The cornea specialist lowered her dose of pills got rid of some drops... added one new drop. Her vision is almost back to where is was before this trouble and the doctor thinks it will get even better!! Yeppeeee I'm can't be happier that things are looking so much better! Has to go back in about three weeks for another check-up. 

Bad news... my youngest granddaughter fell off a stool and broke her arm...she is doing good, but man things just keep getting crazy!

6 on the elliptical, I ramped up the resistance more then I have since the surgery. It still felt pretty good. Being back to work and having to use alot more stair then I do at home make my knee feel a bit weird. Not hurt, just not feel normal, I hope this goes away as it heals more. 

So there was a girl next to me at the elliptical machines and she stayed on for quite a while. But I notices she was not sweating at all!! I mean what the heck! I seriously leaving puddles! I have it dripping off my chin, elbows, you name it, it's pretty gross. How can she not be sweating at all, or maybe it's just that I'm the weird out of shape one... either way just thought it was weird.

4.00 on the elliptical. I would mess with the crossramp and resistance at every mile. Moderate then hard. I needed to mix things up a bit so after the elliptical I got on the TM and power walked 2 more miles. For some reason the TM seems to bug on the knee more then the elliptical. 

I need to do some arranging of my schedule to see if I can fit in a spin class or something different, the routine I'm in now is getting boring... any suggestions? 

Busy day today and tomorrow

Happy Easter :)
