Days Sixty-Six and Sixty-Seven: Mixed Bag

To say this week has been stressful is an understatement. Yesterday was a complete wash for both eating and exercise--this is due to a combination of stress and hormones. I don't like it, but that's life, and sometimes the stress is just too much to overcome. No sense beating myself up about it.

Today was somewhat better, though somewhat limited by circumstances. I worked at home today with Finn. After lunch, we tried to go for a big lunchtime walk, but alas, Finn fell about a block from the house--one of those bad falls in which he scraped all knees and elbows. So, we gave up and headed home, and the poor guy wasn't really up for a walk after that. I did make it to Zumba tonight at least, and it was extremely fun, as always.

Now, I can tell you definitively that I am not going to make it to the barbell class in the morning. It's already too late at night to get enough sleep, and I am utterly exhausted. I will just have to find time to do some strength training at home instead.
