Gym is Open (Wednesday 11/21)

The gym is open.  I have a busy day today, getting my hair done, getting the turkey, fighting the crowds at Whole Paycheck, etc.  Not only that, Denver is expecting snow, with 1-6 inches predicted for my neck of the woods.  How's that for accurate forecasting? If we get more than an inch of snow, my exercise will include shoveling snow.  I don't mind, I like physical activity. What will do you do to move your body today? Kix

Our TV is supposed to be delivered today and we had to go to the grocery store last night for a turkey - whole paycheck was insane.  It turns out that my friend decided (last minute) to stay in town and wants to split the cooking with me after all.  That's all well and good, but more notice would have been nice because I usually grocery shop early before Thanksgiving to avoid the madness.  Its the same reason I'm pretty much done with Christmas shopping.  I hate crowded stores.  I have not been good about exercise lately, at all.  I spent most of yesterday trying to go potty.. iron supplements are a bad bad thing.  I've also just been kind of down and cranky.. in a funk.. its no excuse for not exercising, but its the truth.  I think I might be a little bit depressed.  Anyway, I did go walking this morning for 30 minutes.  I walked quite a bit farther and than I usually do (I was chilly), and then turned around and walked back.  The first half was uphill, so I was definitely breathing hard and I liked the route I took because its from my apartment, I don't have to drive anywhere to go walking.  I'll probably clean today (make room for old TV in bedroom, etc.) and get the brine ready for the turkey.  I may even shop online a little if I can find free shipping.  I need to get my hair done, but its falling out so I keep saying why bother.  I read that iron deficiency can cause your hair to fall out too, so I think I had a double whammy.  Its not noticeable to anyone but me yet, unless I skip a day washing it, then its really obvious.  But I'd like to skip a day because I hate when I see the hair going down the drain.   I wonder how I'll look in hats...  I am stalling again I think, lost and gained the same 3 pounds for the past two weeks.  I'm sure that has a little to do with my funk, but mostly my funk arises from having to deal with emotions instead of suppressing them with food.  I have become a b*+^h, but at least I am standing up for myself more.  I also realized that I've put up with a lot of crap from a lot of people for a long time when I really shouldn't have.  And that bums me out.  Ugh.  And I'm crying a lot.  Double ugh.  I just want to be alone lately.  Anyway, that has nothing to do with exercise, but I think I turn these posts into my own personal journal half the time anyway.  It doesn't matter if anyone else reads it, I feel better when I write it down.  Happy Thanksgiving everyone and I'll probably not post or look at the boards again until Fri so have a good holiday.
