Thursdays

I had a good day full of fresh air yesterday!!! My class was awesome and the conditions were perfect. I am still wearing my new toy (my heart rate monitor) with the different activities I do and finding it very interesting......... After breakfast Kaylee and I hit the gym and I had a hard time deciding what to do for my cardio. I was going to stay home but knew I did not want to elliptical and was leaning towards a good rollerblade. So I packed up and headed out but the weather was iffy and I was unsure so we hit the gym... I rowed and for about ten mins then thought I would do an incline power walk. After another ten mins knew rowing was where I wanted to be so I went back ( I know ) I was rowing but kept longing for outside as the sun was coming out more and more. So I rowed for another twenty mins then packed Kaylee up and headed for the geese park rollerblade (whew) I rollerbladed twice around the big loop which is about an hour. It felt awesome and I'm so glad we went. I needed an easy day and wanted to relax with my workout. According to my heart rate monitor rowing gets my heart up to about 100, incline 10 % and 3.0 mph on the treadmill gets it up to 115 and rollerblades just under 100. I find rowing swimming and roller blading about equally as challenging and was pretty much right on the money. I find them hard in a diff way than the elliptical because though the elliptical gets my heart up up it does not require as much power, coordination, or whole body muscle work.
The day was nice and it was supposed to be the ONLY one so I was bound to mowing the lawn after lunch. Molson (our dog) had a huge seizure so I was really worried and feeling really conflicted about what to do. I called the vet and got him in for the next afternoon. I was just all over the place yesterday. After I mowed the lawn I came inside and made some calls about Molson, then got Kaylee up and ready to head out. I had an appt and errands to run. All day I could just not make a decision and was feeling quite all over the place. I was confused in my head and emotions. We were done earlt then faced with well what to do know??? We could go to the library, go home and play, head to walmart and pick up our pics...... the choices were endless. Kaylee of course wanted to do everything LOL We ended up going to get our pics then headed home. I gave her a shower cut and painted her nails and got ready for dinner.
