Sore stinks!

It's been a week now and I think I'm finally feeling back to normal. Last week, my trainer decided to kick my ever lovin' ass during my upper body workout...oh my heck, I'm not kidding you when I say being sore stinks! Literally I couldn't move my arms, for freakin' days!!! It sucked!! I spent my birthday barely able to lift a champaign glass to my lips (but, I managed, even though it hurt, cause, hello...it's champaign!!!) and scrapbooking or computer time...fuggidaboutit!!!! but I'm happy to report that as of today, one week later, I am finally feeling almost a 100 percent! Almost!! I'm still a little stiff on the left side but no worries, I'm sure in a couple more days I'll be right as rain! My motto lately has been "Fitness Sucks".....

So, yeah, had a birthday. Getting older. Hating that! It seems like each year the birthdays arrive faster and faster...slow down will ya...but, I had a nice one nonetheless. Roger was able to make it home (he has missed a couple over the years and baby that I am, it always bums me out!) and we had a really nice weekend. Got some cool gifties, and went out for a nice dinner. Mother's Day came and went. Roger left that morning and so I just hung out with Miss Mandi. Played some Mario Kart (I was actually able to play it on Sunday...hadda watch on Friday and Saturday as the arms weren't moving and that bout killed me!) and then Mom came over and we went out for dinner. All in all a really nice weekend!

Yesterday my bff Carol and I headed out for a lunch to celebrate, we are so like children when we get together...needless to say, I'm sure the rest of the restaurant patrons were happy to see us leave! LOL!!

Today, the pool opened!! Yay!!! Now, if summer would just arrive so that we can actually use it, all would be right with my world! Course, I still need a few more (heck, more than a few) sessions with Neil until I'm bathing suit ready but it does look nice to peek out into the backyard and see the pool, all full and ready!

So, there it is. Not too exciting but you are all up to date with my world. I'm hoping to get scrappy in the room and make a little something something, so,

Until next time,
Blessings!

Love celebrating the bdays, just hate that, like you said, they come too fast. Still feel like I'm 27...until I look in the mirror.

I can just imagine you two out together, laughing the entire time! Glad to hear you had such a nice birthday weekend!
