Katsolo's Journal, 06 April 2024

When the workweek has been exhausting and yet, you need to do that nagging adult stuff like taxes on a finally gorgeous sunny weekend day. Sigh. But here we are and it must be done.

A glimpse of breakfast while we’re still allowed to have runny eggs. Eggs with egg whites and some cheese folded over this morning, sprinkled with Hatch chili peppers for a pop of flavor.

Looking at yesterday’s swim, knew it was nothing special other than the fact that 84° in the pool when it’s 49° outside and I can see my breath is pretty awesome for swimming, but totally sucks when it’s time to get out. I usually prioritize walking the beasts in daylight these days, so swimming is down when work goes late, but I try and quit early on Fridays because that is one core habit my early work family engrained in me. Friday afternoons are for playing hooky. That no longer includes copious amounts of alcohol, but I still try to do something that doesn’t involve computer screens outside.

Yesterday was gusts of wind to 25 mph, sheets of rain alternated with hail and then, total sunshine, but still cold wind. Not a storm of the century, but weather for sure, and I’m glad I didn’t try to sneak out later in the evening because the rains came back.

Swim was 775 strokes, average heart rate of 107, which is great for proving fitness, but not much of an actual workout. I tweaked a muscle in my neck earlier this week and while it’s better, i can still feel it turning to the left and I didn’t want to risk irritating it too much. Feels like my body is going to crap as far as stupid things that go wrong randomly. I’m sure I slept wrong, i got through it, but was not comfortable using the massage gun on my neck for a multitude of reasons. Icy Hot - best fragrance ever as things fall apart. Oh, baby, you’re so hawt, i mean icy, i mean icy-hot. Going to start working my shoulders more to increase the range of motion in all directions instead of pull strength only. Maybe my retirement career should be as a PT? I have at least ten years to pull that off starting now. Body should have fallen apart completely at that point. 😜

Numbers are a little weird this morning, no reason for the blob to be a bigger blob, but it is. Muscle should be higher, but isn’t and my water is meh. Call it a weekend anomaly, I guess.

Weekend rules, enjoy the day while i drown myself in receipts and spreadsheets for the taxman. Onwards!

I think if you’re new FS only lets you follow so many people at a time. Thanks for liking, mostly ramblings when I can.

How is your neck feeling now? Have you put any heat and/ or heat on it?  
06 Apr 24 by member: Diana 1234
Yeah, i put some heat on it. It’s better, just not gone. I put my inversion table away a few weeks ago when i had guests, I need to pull it back out and hang upside down some more. Just makes my upper body feel better in general. I feel like it counteracts all the sitting I do at work. I’ve been hitting the massage chair pretty hard, but it doesn’t really get that part of my neck.
