I have been keeping track of my exercise every Friday for 6 years, and plan to continue doing so.
Since the pandemic started, I have been keeping track of “firsts,” and more lately, I have been trying to note good things (“fabulousness”). It’s a good way to pay attention and not let life slide by.
Friday Firsts
This week’s firsts:
- One of our neighbors lost their child to cancer and had a memorial service. I had never been to a service quite like it.
Fabulousness
On my work-from-home day, it was snowing. I got to stay home (and off the roads) while watching snow land on the trees in my cozy home office.
Mr. PiN cleared out a lot of clothes; they are in a huge bag, ready for donation. It’s great to have the extra room in the bedroom/closet.
Fitness Log
The goal is to get 150 minutes of moderate exercise, of which (ideally) 60 minutes should build strength (yoga counts); if I am working in the hospital, my goal is just 90 minutes, which is a more realistic stretch during those busy days.
How did I do?
- Saturday: No exercise today.
- Sunday: I was thinking about an exercise video, but didn’t. No exercise today.
- Monday: I had to attend a funeral for a child in the neighborhood, and had to cancel my training session. Obviously, canceling my workout was not the worst part of the day.
- Tuesday: No exercise today.
- Wednesday: I got sedation today and felt awful. My exercise was going from the sofa to the bed.
- Thursday: I had lots of work leftover, so did not exercise today either.
- Friday: Nothing today either.
Total: No exercise at all. I suppose I should give myself some grace given the other issues of the week. But this is also why I started to keep track of my exercise (to make sure I get some!)
I hope you have had a good week. Feel free to share any fabulous news of your own.
