Didn't make it to the gym on Monday, half a dozen inches of snow (and by the time I got home, ice) put paid to that plan. Fell on my arse three times just trying to get to the end of the office driveway. Couldn't ride the bike either, so had to get a lift.
I've got a late meeting at University tonight, but may try and get there afterwards.
I know I've been slacking off this last week, but feel like things have just been thrown at me a bit. My University job has a habit of getting the better of me and is starting to do so again. I've got to write an experimental three-group lecture for the 14th, a session that is going to be observed by my post-grad supervisor as part of my Masters. I've also got another assignment due in on the 5th of February that I've still not even started. And then finally I'm into hospital on the 25th, meaning I'll probably need to get everything done before then.
I'm missing the activity. Work is leaving me drained most days and I'm falling back into a bad routine a bit. I know once I get the assignment out of the way my mind will relax a bit (although after this one, I've only got a month to do another, this time the grade making up 75% of the year too). Itching to get this surgery out of the way and just get on with things after it's done with.
I'll be completely honest and express that I was disappointed in myself at how hard I found the commute on my bike too, really though I'd deal with it a bit better than that, especially with the work I've been putting in this last month. Onwards and upwards though.
This isn't the beginning-of-the-end of yet another New Years Fad, I'm sticking with it long term. The eating is still going well (Weight Watchers weigh-in tomorrow, should be good for a laugh!) and the desire is still there. Just struggling a bit on time.
Not giving up though, not by a long shot.
