Can May be Over Already?!

This week is rounding up all in all, a terrible, horrible, stressful May. I don't share masses of information about the challenges of life unless I feel they are somehow relevant to my goal, and with that in mind, you are not about to read an essay titled 'why my life is worse than yours', because let's face it, we all have our own struggles and it is wrong to compare them. 

The context you need to know is vets (emergency, lots of them) and dental work (emergency, painful). 
​This means that I haven't been able to prioritise my workouts as much as I would like, and since Friday, I've not been to the gym AT ALL.

Not because I didn't want to, trust me I would have loved to, but because I had dental on Friday I've been in so much pain I've basically spent near enough 80 hours in bed, eating copious amounts of ice cream and taking strong painkillers every four hours.

Managed to work a full day today which I am surprised at, and I will be attempting the gym later too now I've been able to reduce the painkillers a bit.

Have to 'take it easy' though, and that isn't something I am good at doing. I blame that 'all of nothing' mentality that lots of us seem to have.

So... I will schedule my workout, stick to light lifts, gentle warm up and cool down, no lunges or anything that really gets me out of breath. Challenging, but I'm up for it. I think!

I'll report back afterward.

Wish me luck, please!
