I find myself heading back towards working out late at night. I have ready access to the hardcore weight room and I can play my music without headphones on if I want to. I can turn the television on any channel I want and walk around and not worry about my gym shirt being a little too see through after I sweat and hairy legs,etc. Plus I now have a new rule. If I eat past nine o’ clock I must go the gym after work. Lately, work has me more wound up than usual and I feel compelled to burn off the stress of nursing. I don’t want to bring that home to my husband and animal companions.

Anyway, yesterday was a great workout because my husband and I got into a ’silent fight’ where we don’t speak to eachother because we’re both depressed. I get into one of those ‘I hate small towns and want to move back to NY’ moods. Working out helps put things in perspective and show me that what I really am feeling is a little self hate about not having children,etc. and missing my mother. I guess that’s why people who live long have their family close.

I tried a workout I saw on bb.com for legs for a sexy bumbum, not that I need it ;-) So I did it and made the weight a little heavier. I seem to respond better with heavier weights. Anyway, I warmed up for ten minutes on the elliptical then I rode the bicycle for twenty minutes while I texted back and forth with my husband! Shame on me. Anyway, I did dumbbell squats, deadlifts, lunges and calf raises with lots of stretching in between. Finally I wrapped it with barbell deadlifts at fifty pounds and twenty minutes on the elliptical.

The sauna session was amazing!
