Wednesday Roll CAll
Good morning!
Kitchen injuries are the worst, Liz! Just be sure that you keep it nice and clean to prevent infection. At least it was an onion and not the chicken.
I'm at work today, supposed to have lunch with Katie "whatever time she wakes up" (could be a late lunch - haha), then possibly dinner with my friend Mary before the Barix meeting.
Worked the upper body intensely last night with the trainer. Can't raise my arms too high... haha. But it felt great. He had me doing things I never thought I COULD do, particularly on the bench pressing side of things. Basically, he didn't tell me what weights we were using, just gauged it by the effort I was expending... and he pushes for higher reps rather than higher weight (but not TOO light, of course). That's an area that is soooo weak for me, but I shocked myself. After the upper body work, moved on to the treadmill and did today's walk/run last night.
Next week, when the center starts opening at 7 for the school year, I'll be getting in there in more of a routine way. I'm looking forward to that.
Hope everyone is happy and healthy today and that I see MANY of you at Barix tonight. I brought another big pack of nice clothes for anyone who wants them - sizes 18 - 20, mostly. Everything from jeans shorts to dress pants and tops, as well as some really nice sweaters for the fall (i know - it's too hot to think about sweaters yet, but it's coming soon!).
