Boring...........

Well, it's been a while since I last posted for one obvious reason - absolutely nothing of interest has happened in my life; barring my boyfriend of course, who I saw Friday and Sunday nights, who cheered me up no end! 

There's been nothing of interest at all, just days, hours minutes and seconds of blandness and it kind of dragged me down some; I don't know why but it did. Normally I like the quiet times and days filled with normality but, since Saturday, I've felt strangely out of place. Saturday night was horrendous, with no boyfriend to keep me company I felt lost - I had nothing to write about on here, I didn't want to watch television nor listen to music nor read a book - I was at a complete and utter loose end; and I abhor being bored. I like to keep my mind busy with something and I never usually find a problem doing so, otherwise I think too much and time drags. I wasn't going to blog about it, and I didn't at the time because it may have been tainted by melancholy, now in hindsight I have the judgement to choose my words. I think the major problem that brought it all on is twofold, firstly my next day off is not until the end of the month and the longevity of the period really hit home; and secondly I really felt like going out partying with my boyfriend Saturday night - I was really up for it, unfortunately I was working the following morning and boyfriend was waiting on pay day. 

Anyway today has been a better day, again not a great deal has happened but at least I'm feeling better and to help me along when I got home tonight I worked out. I own a Total Trainer 2000, it's like an all in one multi gym, it's very good but I fell out of training on it last Autumn - I just kind of lost the urge. Now, I'm slim and in pretty good shape but still I like to keep fit, to tone everything up and remain active; I don't want huge muscles or nothing like that. But I have been feeling the difference with the lack of working out of late - my back in particular has felt real weak and fragile. So this evening I gave it a go.....................

I started where I left off last Autumn on the advanced men's workout and I know you're supposed to start off on a lower level and work your way up but I needed the challenge. For the most part I was fine and then towards the end it hurt big time; I have lost a great deal of fitness, it showed. But I struggled on through until the end and one hour and a bucket of sweat later I knew I had been through a workout. But it did its' job - it released a major load of endorphins and has left me feeling just fantastic in both mind and body. Hopefully this is start of a regular work out regime, it's made me realise I do need it at the moment, I mean the only part of my body that has been getting a regular workout of late has been my bum! 

If nothing else I need to do it when I find myself at a loose end and bored because with nothing to occupy my mind on Saturday night I went online shopping, I'll save the story of the things I purchased for another day, when they arrive.................
