I haven't worked out all week. Not once, unless you call walking around California Adventure for four hours on Friday a workout... well, maybe it is, but never mind.
Anyway, no working out has made LB a sluggish person. I'm slowed both mentally and physically. Now, while my wife might say that I'm typically a little slow about certain things sometimes (ie changing out some light bulbs around the house, laundry, you know, fun stuff), I feel like I'm in a haze.
It's taking me twice as long to process certain things. It seems that way anyway. And sadly coffee doesn't help. I feel like all I want to do is lay around and do nothing.
Hmmm... strangely, that's how I felt all the time before, when I never worked out. I always felt like I had cobwebs floating around my head. But now that I'm active, I feel more energized and have a greater drive to do different things. Like, it's not on ordeal to mow the lawn now and washing the car, while it still sucks to do, isn't taxing.
I'm not any more happier to mow the lawn or wash the care now than I was before; it didn't become less of a chorse, you know. Just takes less effort.
Anyway, I'm going to get back at it on Monday and work out. I just have to slog through another day and a half.

Isn't it funny how our bodies work? When you are more active you have more energy, the more you do nothing the more lazy you feel? I go throught that from time to time, either because of my thyroid condition or because I'm a stay at home mom...or both.
I've noticed that on the days when I work out that I have a ton of extra energy, it's great :)
