Movin' it with Michelle

I’ve had a lingering headache all week with our crazy weather, so I took a much needed rest day. A nap trumped my workout…it’s no wonder I can’t lose these last five lbs lol. I did get my daily plank done, as well as lots of steps in while at work.

Tonight’s reminder and plank!
I wasn’t feeling well this morning, between a headache and sinus/allergies, so I decided to take a sick day. It’s something I used to never do due to feeling guilty for missing g work. Now I realize taking care of myself so I can be there for my family should always take priority over work. Who’s with me?

Every now and then I get pretty bad foot cramps. There is no rhyme or reason to them, and it’s definitely not because I’m dehydrated, so yeah.

I also do my best to keep my emotions in check. I’ve learned through enduring a lot of emotional and physical situations to, “suck it up.”

That wasn’t the case tonight. As I was falling asleep to take a cat nap on my recliner, my right foot seized up. This was gonna be a doozy.

Suddenly I was crying. You know, the ugly sob sort of cry. The more I cried, the more my foot seemed to hurt, geez Louise could I catch a break?

It finally let up, but by then I was emotionally drained, even though they say a good cry is good for you, I’m not so sure. Lol. Maybe I needed it, maybe the foot cramps come from something a little deeper, who knows.

Not really a point to this story, just felt I needed to get it off my chest.

Ever have phantom off wall aches and pains? Joys of aging I suppose!!

Here are a few race pics that make my heart happy. I took another rest day, but made it into work at least. I did manage a few miles of walking at work, and did a quick yoga stretching workout after work.
