The heat continues...

It's still hot...Advil PM did NOT work last night, nor did having two fans in the room going! There does appear to be a touch of a breeze tonight, so I think I'll risk sleeping with the window open (I do live downtown, where people love to sing/swear/fight/rev their engines/blare music/etc, so sleeping with an open window is often a no-no) and see if I can actually get more than 5 hours.

Got up bright and early (okay...I was already awake...sigh) and went to weigh-in downtown. Which wasn't even open yet!! And this is what the WW brainiacs in Edmonton think is the solution to our problem of driving to the far northwest for meeting?? I start work at 7, so if your meeting isn't even open yet for weigh-in, how can I go in the morning?! Thank goodness Faye was there, because she let me in, knowing I was on my way to work. Good weigh-in, considering my food-a-palooza on the weekend! Stayed even, which I'll take. Still the lowest I've been in about 3 years.

Work was...although I did walk into someone being escorted out of the building...man, I hate that! Did a fast retreat once I clued in to what was going on...sign of the times, 'fraid to say. Did go for a run at lunch, since the temp was much more reasonable at 23 at noon. Did the Crescent Heights hill (which runs under the big staircase from past pictures) and then "Cris" (as in Cris-Cross) along the McHugh Bluff, ending up on the Sunnyside pathway system, so I could head into Kensington to take a bank deposit in. Back to work, and in total did a respectable 4.75 km loop. Added some squats, and the day was complete.

Headed home a tad early (oooo, ten whole minutes!) so I could be changed and ready to go to Boot Camp, and still meet up with the floor guy (to repair one of the suites)...left my building at 4:15 and at 4:36 met up with the rest of the gang. And if anyone cares, our new BC location is a hair over 2km from my house. Walking with 16 lbs of weights in my backpack and a mat, up a rather large hill to get there, so that was my warm-up. Trainer Josh pulled out the tickle trunk again, so it was run through the ladders and hop over the mini-hurdles again. All I know is I was glad it wasn't chin-ups, as I'm really feeling my arms/back/lats/etc today. Worked up our usual good sweat, and thankfully, it wasn't as killer hot as yesterday, although we did stick to the shade for the most part. May even have a ride to Monday's class, if I want, as one of the other ladies wants to catch up on some missed classes. Cool, since I still don't have a car, and don't know when I'll get it back!

Came home, and had a quick dinner of polenta, mushroom tomato sauce, thin sliced ham, more mushroom tomato sauce, and some parm, baked up in my toaster oven. It was delish and hit the spot, although CSI just made me lose some it!! That pisses me off - TV should not make you vomit!!!

I'm off to bed...maybe if I go now, I'll manage to black out before too long...9 hours sleep in the last 48 hours is not a good thing!

Going to do the Booty workout tomorrow at lunch, and sort out my goals and rewards for posting tomorrow evening. Have a great night everyone.
