Last night I felt so tired from my after-work gyrations and reflecting that I had today (July 4) off, I lazily put away my Tablet and went to bed. After all, I continued to justify to myself, I was unlikely to wake up with a headache, since I am going wine-less (but not whine-less) till after the Boilermaker 15K. As it happens, not all headaches are due to wine. However, it is not a bad one, and I expect it will go away as the morning progresses.
Where was I? Ah yes, a late Monstrous Monday Post. First, perhaps, a word or two about the previously mentioned gyrations.
“No! Monsters first!”
Maybe one monster.
I got home and immediately got on the phone to take care of a couple of things I had neglected. Never mind what. It’s not that interesting, and I am quite disinclined to emphasize the extent to which I do not have my act together. I ran one errand, still dirty from work (for which you are welcome to judge me), and returned home to realize it had stopped raining long ago enough to make lawn mowing eligible.
Me hacking away at the overgrowth.
Regular readers may recall that I use a non-power mower. It makes for a pretty good work out. Since I had walked in the morning but not run that afternoon, I praised myself for the exertion (hey, I have to keep myself going anyway I can). A soapy shower felt good after that.
My stomach, urging me to the grocery store.
I sat down for a while, but my body was soon reminding me I had not eaten. One must stay nourished, I suppose. I dragged myself to the grocery store. As it happened, it was a great time to go. The crowd had already gotten their Fourth of July supplies and left. I got everything my list plus a couple of treats, which I felt I had earned.
“Did somebody say treats?”
Now I have made my Monday blog post, I can get on with my Tuesday gyrations. Once again, thank you for tuning in.
