Friday! and I spent some money….
So I was still feeling sick today and I did not know how my gym time was going to go today. I decided to jog on the treadmill for 2 miles and I felt pretty good. No hacking or coughing, I felt good. I then moved onto the elliptical stepper machine where I alternated between elliptical motion and stepping motion each 5 minutes for a total of 40 minutes. I felt good but not great here. I did sweat but not intensely.
My afternoon workout was weight lifting. I started with dumbbell bench presses, cable incline presses, cable chest flies, dumbbell dead lifts, leg presses, and leg extensions. A pretty good workout. I still feel sick and have it come on in waves. I feel good for a while and forget I am sick then I get the sniffles, coughs, sore throat, then it passes. weird.
Now for the spending money part. My truck tires have been balding for a while, but since I am only driving 2-4 miles in a day I have not worried about it. Well yesterday I took a good look at them and I did not like what I saw. There are tears and cracks in the bald tread and cracks in the side walls. I needed new tires. I was hoping to get by with just the front ones but the guy at the shop pointed out the cracks in the rear tire side walls and explained how dangerous it was.
I bought 4 new ones and an alignment. I have to say, 17 inch tires suck! If I wanted to get the ones like I had on there I would have been paying over $225 per tire, plus the “other fees” and the alignment. I remember buying 40 dollar tires for my past cars, this was a shocker. Especially now. On the plus side I did get my vacation money today which more than covers what I spent, but damn it was expensive. I have one more interview on Monday and I think I will have the Job. I hope it works out. I am ready to be in the workforce again.
Daisy was verry supporting of me. She hugged my feet to let me knoe she cares and is there for me!
She even used her laser beam eyes to brighten my day!
