Return of the Living Dead

Wahooooooooooooo! Hello, hello my faithful readers! I'm finally feeling human again! If I had the energy I would be skipping around my room......but wait, I still have to go to work today. Grrrrrrrrrr. Well to every bit of good, some bad, right?

Whatever hit me like a freight train has now left the building (minus a few drippy bits of mucous -- yum, hope you weren't eating!). It's back to the gym with me today and back to PT land. I've made him promise we'll do light today. Ha. We'll see. I hope I don't pass out! Of course, seeing PT certainly puts the old monkey wrench in the spinning/pilates combo. Honestly, after this past weekend I'm not so sure I could make it through both tonight. My goal is to be fully up and running again by Saturday's spinning/yoga extravaganza.

Thought for the day:

"You're should-ing all over yourself!"

Somehow I managed to get thinking about Stuart Smalley (of SNL fame) and his motto of "you're good enough, you're smart enough and doggone it, people like you". Don't ask. Sometimes the mind truly is a wondrous thing. Anyhoooooooo, this post was born. Then I stumbled over the above quote. Too bloody right! Constantly I frame things in my head as what I should be doing -- not what I am doing, but what I should do. I've been should-ing all over myself and then some. I should lose weight, I should work harder, I should pay more attention to my job, I should spend more time with my friends, I should, I should, I should. Pfft. No more shoulds! I need to change how I frame these thoughts in my head, methinks. Maybe then I wouldn't feel like a failure when I don't end up doing those things I think I should be doing. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm........thoughts from the peanut gallery???

Ok, must zip. Work calls.............grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
