I had a lot to say and then I got sick and didn't feel like writing so now I can't rememebr what was so important that I was going to publish it...

I do have one thing I am proud to report. I joined a gym and worked out for the first time in 3 months last week. I went to a "cardio tai box" class (basically, kickboxing without bags or people to beat on) class on Thursday and cashed in my complimentary session with a personal trainer on Friday. The class was a lot of fun, and I was happy that I could still keep up. I guess, after working out steadily for 2 years, 3 months doesn't erase everything. The trainer session was good, but, it made me realize that basically the instructors I had at the corporate gym in Cleveland were like free personal trainers, because all the routines and stretches and form he was showing me were things I already knew. So - for $80 per one hour session (on top of my monthly membership fee) I think I will be skipping the trainer and just using my own knowledge to create a routine I like.

Other than that, spent the weekend with a bad cold and sore from working out. So - that was no fun. But I am on the mend now... (Sadly, I always know when a cold is almost gone when I wake up feeling like someone is sitting on my chest. I suppose, being asthmatic, I should feel lucky that I don't have any shortness of breath along with the heavy chest feeling...)

I think I will be stocking up on those homeopathic 'take at the first sign of cold or flu' things since my immunity is apparently not up to NY standards yet. Anyone tried Airborne or Zicam? Which one's better? |
