slack

With 250 days to go, and no postings here, it's quite obvious I've been slack.

I have excuses - yes-sir-ee Bob!

The first was a kitchen accident. I managed to slice off the side of my thumb. It was right where it contacts the gear lever on my bike for the rear derailer. It was a very painful injury and I've had to be quite careful with it. No swimming - but I could have still done walking in the gym... Slack.

Then I cold the mother of all colds - head aches, neck aches, sore ears, sore throat, coughing up one or both lungs on a nightly basis.

But now I'm taking a good hard look at myself, and now the cold is on it's last legs, I promise to myself - I WILL START AGAIN MONDAY.

In fact, I have started again already in a way. Part of the challenge for me is getting up early. I'm simply not a morning person. So this week, I'm working on getting that early start thing happening, then I'll start back at the gym.

Wish me luck. :)
