Work and Wintertime blues

There is one thing about winter and it is the gloom.  There is just so much gloom, you go to work when the sun is only peaking out and you go home long after the sun has left us for the day.  There is not much that you can do to fix this, maybe you can look forward to a Southern Vacation, or have solice in the fact that the days are indeed getting longer.

Myself, I use both.  I plan trips away during this time so that I have something to look forward to, and I enjoy the fact that the sun is now up when I go to work, and if I leave on time I may be able to catch the sun set on my way home.

But that is the problem for the last week or so, I have not been able to leave work on time.  I opened my mouth and said that I was slow and was attacked with work.  Nothing long term though, by the end of this week it is looking like I will be slow once again.  All of this work doesn’t leave me a lot of time to go to the gym.  I have been getting great activity at least 3 times a week, but no gym.

This is something that I am going to have to try harder to change, even if it means that I am not getting home till later.  I have to start going since I am paying for it if nothing else.  I have it worked out that I have to go at least 10 times a month for it to be worthwhile, and the little that I have gone in the last few months means that I really have to get into it to make up for all of that lost money.

As for me getting into a better shape, I am doing well, the good activity that I am getting in place of the gym is doing wonders.  I am playing basketball once a week and hockey twice.  I have noticed that I have a lot more lungs during hockey than I did in December and I am running more in basketball.  I have not had much change in the waist or weight, but that will come.  I will be sure to post my stats at the end of this week and will do so every 2 weeks.

Cheers and have a hot toddy on me :)
