It’s all up to me

Good thing computers don’t have smell technology b/c none of you would want to be around me.  I’m sweaty not from working out but from painting!  We have this awesome paint stick that just allows you to paint instead of constantly stopping to reload your roller so I worked up a sweat.  I painted our bedroom in under 30 minutes, now I’m just waiting for it to dry so I can add a 2nd coat.  It looks awesome, by the way.  Previously I always had quilts and although I like them I wanted something more sophisticated.  Our new bedspread is simple but glamorous and it goes so well w/our walls.  If I could ever figure out how to post pictures I would but I have given up trying to figure that out.

As far as exercise goes, I got up early this morning and did my favorite FIRM DVD.  I also bumped my weights up to 15 pounds each from 12 pounds.  It wasn’t as hard as I thought it was going to be; the only times I was in agony was when I was lifting them in front of me.  Now that I’m thinking about it increasing my weights on a day that I’m painting probably isn’t a good thing, I’ll probably be sore for sure tomorrow.

Speaking of being sore, there have been many days when I have been lifting until the last few reps were so tough and I figured I would be sore the next day for sure.  But when I woke up I felt fine.  Does this mean that I’m not working hard enough or just that the stretching afterward is working?  If anyone has any knowlege about this I’d appreciate it.

Food has been good today but I’m not courageous enough to say that I’m back on track.  Let’s just say I’m in the stands, looking at others who are on the track and wondering if I want to join them.  I’ll take it, considering that last week I was just aimlessly driving around the parking lot.  Enough bad metaphors???
