Still feeling any better? Get a chance to sleep in at all? So far for this kid? Nope.
Had to wake up yesterday for those showings..and then this morning to be at the realty office. Gonna go home, take a nap, then go to gym (legs) then meet some of my club co-workers at the country bar for a little while tonight. (Wanna see something funny...watch me two-stepping)
(I dont line dance, thank you...)

Good job on the workouts... two in a row, hang on now - wouldn't that be considered training?
No sleep ins for me... silly clients like to train soooo damn early! lol
I planned to workout yesterday but by the time I was free to train I was toast.
I did get in a pretty good workout today though and am feeling much better... not fully over it yet but definately on the mend.
Just got home from a course on shoulder rehab... learned a lot.
Oh and on a dancing note.... you and me both! I have little to no co-ordination and my dancing resembles something like a demented spider!

I've always (ok, at elast for a while..) wanted to learn to salsa dance. Maybe, even waltz and such. I'm gonna take some man points..but: Sahll We Dance was a great movie. Very graceful. I was flipping thru the chanels one morning and actually caught a ball room comp. That didn't look fun. Too stiff, not pleasurable. But to be able to go out and 'spin your lady' around the floor..yeah..that looks like fun.
I always joke, that the reason I am a bouncer is that because I cannot dance...I can just stand still..

I took a ballroom dancing class with my wife about 10 years ago (her idea, trust me) and re-confirmed that I can't dance either. That is alot harder than it looks. Plus, I'm not big enough to be a bouncer. I guess I've got no business being in a club at all.

I do wish I could dance... that's one thing I am quite envious of of other people that have rhythm!
Sure, I know you can learn but when it comes to being a really good dancer I think you either have it or you don't... I was apparently last in line for this talent.
Jake... you and Funky both danced your butts off in Vegas and you looked great doing it too! You're just too modest!
I'm with you Burner on the Salsa dancing... that looks like fun.

having some rhythm has it's benefits. Last weekend, I was on the dance floor with a group of hotties. As I came off, this guy asked if I knew them, I said "no, they just asked me to dance with them" He bought me a drink ....

Anyone who has either suffered from chronic depression or is close to someone who has will know just how much it can impact a person and everyone around them.
It's been an ongoing battle and is something that runs in his family.
We've been through this before but this time around after almost 18 months in a very downward direction I was wondering if we would make it through it this time.
Finally after serving up some pretty stiff ultimatums I got my husband in to see a doctor and psychiatrist... the psychiatrist (a client of mine) has truly been a life saver, with the right cocktail of medication Rod is back on track... well actually better than back on track, as I told him I don't think he's EVER been this healthy before.
I even admitted that I actually quite like him again now.
I guess I was just remembering all we have been through over the past few months and years and feeling very grateful that things are finally good again and that I am not dreading coming home every day anymore.
Life is good.
