View ARTISTSANDIE's food & exercise for this day

Rough patch the past three days. When it rains it pours it seems as the server went down at the office and just fried itself, then had a screw in my tire causing a blowout and then the well had an issue and needs even more funds pumped into it again. I let it get me down and just gave up for three days. I even spent yesterday in bed, now that was productive. Yet today I do feel more like facing the world and have a more positive outlook on all the above, humm. Now I can not take to bed and eating every time life throws a fly in the ointment. Of course me wonderful hubby said well it seems to him I needed the rest. Oh I also forget my new glasses were stolen at the gym Friday, why I do not understand as they are prescription. Well I have a second pair and can wait on getting new ones again as they were costly. I have never understood stealing or lying so I was set back again on my thoughts of human nature and it dulled the gym for me as a safe place.

Middle of the night blog update.
Well I did make it to the gym tonight and found myself looking at anyone with glasses that resemble my stolen ones. I now have a nice new red lock for my locker, one of those that has a big button that you slide in different directions in a set pattern. I was happy to find this type as I cannot see at all without having my glasses on to read the numbers and that again means I would have had to place this pair at risk of theft. Dear hubby checked to see if I might get a reorder on the stolen ones, funny the frames are no longer being offered. Suggested I might look on the net for the exact ones, yup FINDI. I bet that is why they were taken, that logo on them. I am not a person who cares much for all that logo stuff, I had just liked the frames and wanted to get out of my old rut of the wire no-frame look. ThatÂ’s what I get for making changes it seems. I was glad I was able to work the lock after my water workout, I had been having trouble with all my practice runs at home on getting it open. Yes it was hit and miss and I kept seeing myself standing wet and cold with no way of getting that lock open. Stranded in front of that gym locker with all my clothes locked tightly up and out of sight and that darn AC they keep blasting freezing me. I found myself annoyed with the presence of others in the locker room and kept wondering which one riffled through my stuff and took the glasses. I dislike feeling all that distrust, but was proud I did not use it to no longer go to the gym and work out. I lost my focus after the theft had happened and did not go to the gym like I had planned to do over the weekend, nor Monday as well. That puts my workout days back-to-back this week which makes it harder on me as my hips hurt more without a break between exercise days. I am now up again in the middle of the night, back to that four hour sleeping pattern of mine even after i do a good workout I still cannot sleep through the night. I know it is from the pain in my hips which wakes me, so I have just come to that resolve right now. We had a flood at the barn as well a water line burst from the cold and made a huge mess. It has been cold here, last night it was 24, cold for here. I found it hard to get warmed up myself and had to pile on extra blankets at bed time, more weight on the hips so I am not shocked I am up and on the computer blogging. A positive is I did 90 minutes of exercise and am proud of myself for not allowing the theft to throw my goals under the bus.
