A cold and dreary day here, it is currently drizzling outside. It poured rain all night last night. What a change from this past weekend when it was warm and sunny! I should not complain, we are seriously low rain-level wise and if something doesn't happen soon we may have drought this summer.

Hubby and I went to the gym last night and as I was minding my own business zoning out on the precor machine I was accosted by one of the personal trainers who basically hauled me into the class he was teaching. Well maybe not hauled, more like shamed. I learned something last night: my lower body strength is excellent. My upper body strength is NOT. I am so sore after that class I can barely reach my arms above my head and my chest, back and side muscles are in agony. It wasn't an exercise class it was a torture session! I swear to you that that man has the heart of a sadist; the more in pain you appear, the bigger he smiles. And god forbid you say you can't do it or he will make sure you do it and then twice more for good measure! He seems to think I can do this shit but my body is screaming otherwise. I did agree to sign up for a kickboxing course he is teaching so maybe the boxing portion will work my upper body a bit. If I can lift my damn arms of course.

I need a massage. A jacuzzi. 800 milligrams of motrin. A heating pad and someone to brush my hair, cuz it hurts too much to raise me arms! Pardon me while I go whimper in a corner now...

Puurrs to all,
