July 1st, 2011

The 2nd half of the year has now started.  Tomorrow will be 26 weeks or 1/2 of 52 weeks.  This morning I did 43 push ups and I thought about it being 4 and 1/2 years since I started doing my p.u.s.h. u.p.s. routine on January 1, 2007.  That sounds like so long ago.  I'm not even going to try to add up all of the push ups that I've done.  And as hard as it is to remain motivated each morning and night it does feel good when I do them.  And I have only had 3 times when I didn't do all that was scheduled because I had such pain from a problem with my shoulder.  Once I skipped it altogether, the other times I did most of them and once I think I found I couldn't do the last 1 or 2, so the next time I did 3 extra to make up for it.  It is funny that usually it is relatively routine and then every once in a while I get to tight that it feels like I can never finish.  My arms feel like lead and my body seems to scream in weakness and pain.  I don't know why it would be that way.  But sometimes it just is.

I am feeling my usual Friday night euphoria.  I was very busy today and I still have lots of work to go. But my target is mostly Tuesday morning.  I'm set for Saturday and I'm ready for a holiday (bus man's holiday that is) weekend.  (does anyone know what a bus man's holiday week end is, anymore?)  There is actually quite a bit of stuff ahead on this weekend.  It is unusual for us to have so much to do.  But we'll try to relax and just chill when we can and also do and enjoy the things that are kind of a responsibility for us.  They will be energy expensive but worth  it and we are looking forward to them.
