Day 119: Friday Off, Saturday at the Gym and a Head Full of Gunk.
Friday I had to wait for the oil delivery. They had to come in and restart our ancient boiler furnace. Really? I have a boiler in my basement? News to me. I thought boilers were only in old schools and Freddy Krueger movies. Anyway, I get into work several hours late and skip the workout. Instead I step out for a short lunch and enjoy some time with my wife.
Saturday I went to the gym and put in a full 3 rounds w/ all assigned cardio. Came out of that feeling GREAT! It does feel like a lot of time to ask from a ‘day off’, but I’m willing to give it a go and see if I can’t make it work. Chances are, after 9M2T is all over, I’ll switch to a MWF weight schedule and never try to come in on the weekend again. Being a father and husband, its hard to ask everyone to schedule around my workout on a day we are all supposed to be hanging out together, but they’re coping. It gives them a chance to go see the in-laws without me. 
After working out, I opened and unpacked a dozen boxes. Nothing major, but I noticed after that that I felt like my allergies were kicking in. Initial thinking was maybe I was coming down with a cold, but then I remembered the boxes and I’m wondering if maybe it was dust in the boxes? Most of what was unpacked were books.
Sunday was off. That’s all. Its always off. In the summer, I’ll do more, but in the winter, its often more sedate. I guess that’s one of the reasons my family wants to move farther south. Eliminate more of the winter. But this Sunday I really took it easy. Wasn’t feeling good. Still had that allergy/cold thing happening. How will it affect weigh-in on Monday? We’ll see.
