Working on it…
Today, I worked with free weights and did 40 minutes of Pilates - the 20 minute beginner’s mat workout (since I have to regain my conditioning) and then 20 minutes of the Pilates Ab workout, which is usually a 40 minute workout, but which I couldn’t get all the way through.
It’s not bad for a start - especially after yesterday’s two-hour long hike. I have a bruise on my shoulder as I expected I would… and I soaked in a tub of warm water and Epsom salts today to relieve some of the soreness I was feeling.
I found a tremendously helpful site for any folks with a video-enabled iPod: art4itunes.com. You simply export your music library to a .txt file and then upload it to this site. It, in turn, pulls down the track listings and album art from Amazon.com so you can copy and paste it into the album artwork section for each song/CD. If you’ve taken most of your CD collection and ripped it to MP3s to put on your iPod (as I have) this is a time-saver indeed.
Tomorrow is visit #2 to orthopedist #3. My MRIs are still in the car and I have already referred to my train schedule to see when I need to leave work to make my 3:30 appointment. In this case, I have a 2:30 train that gets me home at 3:20 and allows me a whopping 10 minutes to get to the doctor’s office… which is perfect, actually, since he’s nice and close.
Tuesday, thankfully, is pay day since I’m running on low cash levels right now. It’s only going to be like this for another month as I pay off the initial large percentage of the Forgotten School Loan. Two months @ $1300 sucks, but at least I make enough at this point in my life to pay that off and still have a little money leftover to pay other bills and, uh, live?
I’m going to get to bed. I have new books to read. Rock.
