Its Monday.
And uggggghhhhh, has it been a hard day.

I am debating whether I feel like working out or not. I do, and then again... I dont.
I dont because I have been having shin splints that hurt like a mother, and my thigh muscles are just shot. They have been so, soooo sore! I could barely walk last night! I cant even use my quads to get off the fuggin toilet. I can barely stand up out of a chair. Am i getting enough protein?!?!

But, at the same time, I do want to do something to work out since I didnt get a chance at all today, and its supposed to be my day to.

Woke up at 6:30 (too early for me), took brother to school, and then headed out the door wit my mom. We went to walmart, the ford dealership where we dropped off the SUV, then to enterprise, then grabbed lunch (the subway sub I had been craving was finally MINE! YES!), walmart again, picked up brother, and then to best buy. I did lot of walking, and a lot of sitting between places where I read my book. I got through at least three chapters today.

When we finally got home, I made protein pops for me and my mom to have later tonight. I drank a little more of the 'batter' (which was the consistency of a smoothie and very, very good) than I should have for just 'taste testing' it.
It kinda filled me up since I had just had a pretty dense snack. I thought to myself, "Damn it. Now I need to go work out to make up for this."

But I am sore! And I dont want to use exercise as a punishment for myself.
Grrrrrrrr!

I'm trying to ask myself what I really want to do.

Since I dont absolutely have to work out. There is always tomorrow, and I could definitely use the rest for my extremely sore legs.

I dont know... maybe I will just go for a nice walk. I wish the TV in the family room wasnt broken. Then I could watch something while I just walked on the treadmill. *hhmpphh!*
