Scheduled to xray 3-4 one year old horses, 34 xrays per horse

Devlin · 03-02-2006, 06:02 PM

Good news.....No horsey squats today and got done work extremely early.

Bad news....No horsey squats because they were rescheduled for tomorrow. Even more bad news....today's workout was shoulders and back which if I get DOMS early tomorrow may leave me seriously hurting by the end of tomorrow if we still do radiographs and I have to wear a lead apron for about 2 hours while taking about 130+ radiographs

Good news....Red made it back to the states safely last night

, but will not arrive at my place until tommorrow evening.

He has things he needs to get done (a shave is first and foremost on my list for him, he grows a beard while in Iraq and he hasn't shaved in 4 months

) and I have to work tomorrow anyway.

Devlin · 03-02-2006, 06:16 PM

Well my boss really did not want to do the radiographs today and he said I "sounded like shit" so he rescheduled them for tomorrow. That way he could work on invoicing and I could "go home and rest." Did that happen? Nope

I got home and vacummed the carpets and then shampooed them before going to the gym to train.

Honestly I feel better today than yesterday, but I do sound like shit and I'm coughing a bit more as well as sneezing a lot. Ohh well, life doesn't slow down because I'm sick, just got to suck it up and keep going.

Nice workout, Dev

Good job on the weights, too

Do you watch this deal/no deal show. This is the first I've seen it. Some dude just turned down $167,000 for a 1 in 3 chance to win $500,000.

Waiting to see what happens.

boilermaker · 03-02-2006, 06:38 PM

Damn, he made it to a $250,000 deal. Balls of steel there.

Thanks I was really happy since I forgot to add, no wheezing or coughing during the 3 minutes of jogging.

No I don't watch it. I'm watchng Survivor and then CSI before crashing in bed. 430AM come way too early especially since my alarm starts going off at 345. I'm not a morning person

If it's any consolation to you, Arch and I get up around that time too.

Yeah I know, but it still sucks when you aren't a morbning person. I'm hoping we don't revert back to having our first appointment at 6AM cause then I'll have to leave for work at 5AM so up by 4AM, but it wouldn't surprise me if we do in a few weeks and thats when the 15 hour work days will kick in

Is that all there is ? Where's the chest wo ?

What gym do you train in ? Sounds pretty well equiped.

Devlin · 03-02-2006, 06:57 PM

Ohh I also forgot to mention...

When I was doing the lat pull downs, a guy asked if he could work in. He's a regular there so no problem. He sees what the weights are set on. After I finished my entire workout he says, "So did he (my trainer) hurt you today?" (meaning going heavier than usual) and I say "No more than I hurt myself."

He says "How was that last set of lat pull downs?" I say "fine why?", he replies, "I tried to help you out and reset the stack at 70." I say, "Ohh really, well thanks, but I had started at 80 and that's what the last set was on." My trainer had put it back up before I started last set.

We get talking about the weights and some of the new equipment. He comes out with, "Please don't take this wrong, but I can see you are thin, but muscluar. You probably weight 110-115."

I say "thanks, but no I'm back up to 115-120."

That comment alone, "you look thin, but musclar" made all the work I have done worth it.

I've been to several Gold's, and I've yet to find one that was poorly equipped.

Well I'm home

Boss said I "still sound like crap, you actually sound worse." After coughing all morning, he said "that's it, you are going home." I reply "I'm fine and you need me later today for the radiographs." He says "I need you more next week and if I let you work all day, you are just going to get sicker. I can't have you getting sicker and I will make do during the radiographs. If the radiographs don't get done today it no big deal, we have all month to get them done." I kinda made me feel good that he looking out for my health and that he relies on me that much that he will "make do" without me. I did what I normally don't do which is break down and start antibiotics. I felt at first what I had was viral and I would just ride it out as usual. However, it has been 5 days with little improvement and if anything I'm worse. I had a dry cough, but that has changed and this "bug" is now officially moving into my chest.

So now I get to relax for the rest of the afternoon. I thought about going to the gym for cardio, but opted off since my cough is worse. May was well rest up. I still have a little cleaning I would like to get done too

Burner02 · 03-03-2006, 10:41 AM

ok...stay OUT of the gym....won't help...may make it worse...u did start anti-biotics? Good...let that kick in. Go home. sleep. Let your body rest. Crawl under a blanket and keep warm...your body needs to relax to fix itself...
besides..u have a guy...to welcome home....he doesn't want to smooch upon a sickie....

Given the way I'm coughing and that the coughing is now "productive"

staying out of the gym is probably a good idea. I wasn't planning on starting antibiotics since I'm a huge believer that antibiotics are over prescribed leading to antiobiotic resistant bacteria, but when the cough turned productive and when I saw the color/consistancy of the production I knew it indicated I had gone from viral to bacterial. So now I'm taking a broad spectrum, commonly prescribed antibiotic for bronchitis and I'm curled under a blanket.

Sounds like what I had....not fun!

Stay out of the gym and in the bed....the additional strain on your CNS by going to the gym isn't good for your body right now. Its needs rest so give it some!

Hope you get better hun!

I was like

"yeah I do thanks for noticing."
