I am SO tired. I worked an extra day last week, spent too many hours on my feet cooking for Easter, with the rest of the day not being a picnic either.
I followed my eating plan for Easter with two minor exceptions (half a deviled egg and 1/2 cup of fruit salad).
When I did my 3.5 mile walk on Saturday I experienced pain in my right hip/leg. It was bad enough that I had to skip exercising on Sunday and Monday. I was too tired to exercise when I got home from work today. I needed to lay down, as I had errands to do and then was babysitting for my two grandsons so that their parents could go out to dinner for their wedding anniversary.
Thankfully, I finished the errands ahead of time and arrived at my daughter's house almost an hour early. I sent her a quick text that I was going to go for a walk around her neighborhood. Although things were still hurting when I started, I did loosen up and feel a bit better throughout the walk.
I had my husband there to help with the boys for most of the evening. Although he didn't help all that much, it was nice to have him there and he occupied the older boy while I struggled with a cranky, teething infant.
My daughter and SIL were very grateful and obviously had a lovely time. That made it all worth it.
Tomorrow I look forward to a calm night at home, although I do hope to do my strength training dvd. I am learning to be calm about my back/leg pain and just take it as it comes.

You have been busy and holidays alone can be exhausting, so get some rest, my friend! Glad you were able to get out far a walk again, as injuries are exhausting too… and frustrating. Take care! xoxox

Thanks, guys. Yes, injuries are both exhausting and frustrating. Today everything hurt, so I am having to skip my work out today. Have a great week, my friends.

Maybe ride a bike? I have a really bad right knee thanks to a past auto accident and have a bit of a problem walking as well. I've substituted my walking with riding a bike. You may want to switch. It will probably eliminate the missed workout days.

I tried riding a bike, madanjen. It still gives me problems, as it flexes my hips even more than walking. Even swimming does. When doing any kind of exercise, eventually I get numbness in my feet and pain in my gluts, hip, and back of knee. It's due to scar tissue in my spine related to surgery for a herniated disk almost 11 years ago. Still, I'm doing better overall than at any other time in the last 11 years. I just need to figure out when to rest and when to just do it anyway, because I'm going to have symptoms almost no matter what I do.

I hear ya! My work week was extreme and I had body pain to boot! I skipped workouts...and the grand kids were out of control! On top of that my 93 year old mother in law who lives with us, was cranky and more demanding than the grand kids!!! TGIF!!!
