I’ve been a total workout slacker lately. Sure, I ran 8 miles last weekend. But other than that… nothing.
Stopped the weights for the week. At some point last week, I did something to my shoulder. I’m not sure what, exactly, but it hurt. And not the good kind of hurt. It seems better now, so I’m going to try to resume the weights next week. It’s hard getting up so early though. Sleep definitely wins out a lot.
Didn’t get in a lot of running this week either. I blame the weather. That snow was insane! For those of you who didn’t see it on the news, on Wednesday, we had a crazy, crazy snowstorm. Federal workers got out of work 2 hours early. For me, that meant 3:00. (For many of my coworkers, it was later. I get to work at 7:30 to put in my 9 hours.) I took the Metro home, and because Metro sucks, I didn’t get home til 3:45. By that point, it was hailing. It had rained all morning, then there was some sleet, and then the hailing started. Once the snow started, it was all over. It was coming down at a crazy rate – up to two inches an hour in some areas! We were lucky in that we didn’t lose power, but the cable went out, so we weren’t really sure what was going on in the world.
I made it in to work the next day (though Metro caught fire again), but it was pretty much a waste of a day, as most of the city couldn’t make it in. Would have made for a nice snowday at home.
In other news, I’m still waiting to hear on the house. They’re still working on all the repairs, so who knows. Today, my Realtor and I are going to look at a couple more houses, just to see. I have mixed feelings about the whole process.
