Today turned out to be pretty hectic and I was very tired by the end of the day.  I'm not sure if I mentioned it in a previous blog but my cardiologist has ordered a monitor for me.  I began wearing a heart monitor on Monday afternoon and I had to wear it for 48 hours which meant no showering!  I was able to shower only when I changed the electrodes 1/2 way through.  I asked my boss to leave early on Tuesday so I could, in fact, shower and he allowed me to do so.  But it felt really good taking the monitor off for good today.  Imagine going to the gym and sweating like a pig and not being able to shower!  I felt gross but took good "bird baths".  So I removed the monitor today at 2 PM and after I went to the gym tonight I had a great shower--felt so good!

So when I got home from work around 4 PM tonight--I really didn't want to go to the gym as I was really tired.  But I kept my eye on the prize and thought of my end goal so I headed to the gym.  After I got there I was glad I made it as I felt really good after my workout. 

Aside from that, not much is going on.  I have the Pens / Vancouver game on and at this very moment the Penguins are up 3-1.  Hopefully they will hold out and win this one. 

I have a very hectic couple of days coming up--I am having my reflexology / massage tomorrow night, the Royals play Friday night, I teach Saturday and I'm holding an open lab for my students at the University Saturday night, and the Royals play Sunday again.  So I will be busy and might not be online as much as normal.  After this week, only 2 more weeks until vacation!  But who's counting!

All the best,
