I woke up in the middle of the night to a screaming lower back.  This morning it was compounded with some screaming neck muscles and biceps.  I can't walk very well and it hurts to lift anything.  Working out is EVIL I tell you.  Nevertheless, I did it again.  I only did a 30 Minute Core Express today (as opposed to the hour long Fat burn I did yesterday).  It was good enough to loosen said painful spots and work out different sets of muscles hat didn't ache previously.  This is the start of a miraculous change for my body.  If I keep this up I can lose what I want to lose in no time.  Let me have this, please.  I need to tell myself this in order to stay motivated.

I was so excited to hear that today would reach a degree above freezing.  There could be some meltage (yeah, yeah it's not a word) where the sun hits today.  O, thank Heavens for that.  Maybe the snow could pack down a little bit more.  Ooh, maybe the roads could get more passable.  The stores can restock on things and my house can be full of things for me to make.  Jon got some things from the store last night.  The cupboards aren't bare anymore.  I have things to make dinner(s) with but it's not as full as I would like.  I need to go with him next time.  He spent a LOT of time on the phone with me trying to get everything but some things were forgotten.  My onion and ham for instance.  Maybe I can get him to sang some on the way home.  Maybe we can just venture out at a later date for some. 

The least I can say is I have power.  We ARE staying warm and I can take a nice, hot shower after I work out.  My little sis has winter weather where she is and they turned off her gas for a little bit.  Not because she didn't pay it, mind you.  The city decided to turn off everyone's!!  How ridiculous is that?!  She had to boil water to wash dishes and take a bath for her, her honey, and her daughter.  Man alive, that's no good.  Like I said, at least I have heat and warm water!!

There seems to be a slight end in sight for the endless snow in my yard.  Not that it's going to melt off anything significant.  Hopefully enough that the kids can go outside!!
