Catch up day at the office today. I did not get any workout in yesterday. I am not great on rainy days on a good day, let alone one with a rather large head.
I will double up this week. Today is hopefully a drainer workout.
I had my worst pain clinic appoinment yet yesterday. They hurt. How can having needles stuck in your neck not hurt, but yesterday was bad. I was curling my feet up yesterday and she stopped. She even gave me some more of whatever it is she gives me to numb the area. It helped a little, but the whole process still hurt. I was in a lot of pain last night, and I couldn't keep my dinner down. I ended up sipping a 90 calorie can of Coke for dinner.
This morning I don't feel that bad, which surprises me after yesterday's experience. I can sort of turn my head, and I was able to put a shirt on by myself this morning. I just hope I don't stiffen up while I'm sitting here today.
My doc also told me yesterday no more squats with the bar on my neck. I can do them with dumbbells. I can do dead lifts, lunges, a few other things she said that I don't remember. BUT NO HEAVY BAR ACROSS MY NECK. Got it!
Listen to the Doc! Hope you feel better today. That sounds like a heck of a pain inflicting, pain workout.

Hey Ann, sorry for the sucky doctor visit. Sounds like good advice about the squats though. Try "front" squats too - you can still use the barbell that way, but it's not across the neck and IMO they're pretty good for stabilizer muscles. Combine them with cleans and you've got yourself a heck of a full body lift.
Hey Ghoulies. Thirty more minutes and I get to go home. It has been a long day, but not a bad day. Meeting all morning, lunch then work at the branch. I'm on the Library Help Line right now and the phone has been pretty steady for the past 90 minutes.
So, while I've been on the phone with people, I did some searching and found a gameboard society here in my county. I'm pumped. Their next meeting is on the 18th, so I think I'll be there that afternoon.
Did not get a workout in yesterday due to Dr. visits and then the motorcycle meeting. And today, my hip is still sore from the shot, and it is pouring rain out. But maybe I can get in a walk before the evening is over. Or I guess get in some abs workout.
iowagander - 2011-12-07 3:45 PM Run, done. It was VERY hard to convince myself to run today - somebody had pizza just laying out and I haven't yet eaten. I'll be fixing that soon...

Hello Kendra. The trees look nice, so do the outside decorations.
I am going to take the kiddos, and maybe Kim to see TSO next year. They play in 3 locations that aren't too far away from here, I am going to try and get tickets early so we aren't in nose bleed territory.
Thanks, Kendra. I signed up.
Sign up for their fan club and you will get an email that will allow you to purchase tickets in advance of the general public. That is how we ended up in row 8.
had a great spin class last night and ran on the dreadmill for 1.5 miles
my legs are "BARKING" at me and so Im heading out for a quick neighborhood run ~ then will take the dogs out for a cool down walk
then hubby and i will walk to the ice skating rink to watch the local talent as we dine at thier restaraunt....we can not believe the quality of food there! mmmmmmm
We had a windy windy night here. I am sure that something blew in from Kansas last night. Good thing I was inside and hid the ruby slippers.
You're funny.
We were supposed to get 1"-3" of snow last night. We got NOTHING! A little snow right now with all of the Christmas lights would have been nice.
We got some ice, there was supposed to be snow in the higher mountains but not much there either. I love the Christmas decorations and lights when it snows.

Me, too. We saw a lot of decorations last night. We have 2 pine sort of bushes in front of the house. They're maybe 7-8 feet tall. The kids want to put lights on them. I told them they could this weekend.
