So...Where Was I?

Pylon · 11-11-2007, 11:01 AM

Thanks, Katt....doing my best.

Lefr hand feels much better, groin feels ok. Right hand is still stiff, and starting to concern me. I might get it checked out this week. It has improved, but still not all the way back. Will not be doing deadlifts tomorrow.

The family meal went well. It was some of the best turkey I've produced, I think. Cooked down the bones overnight and will be feast on turkey soup tonight. Woohoo!

When you enter this page and all you read is this, you might get a bad idea of the situation.

Good luck with recovering!

at his age,the recovery time for anything that involves the groin takes some time.

Scarface30 · 11-13-2007, 05:56 PM

mmm, left overs from Thanksgiving...best thing ever are hot turkey sandwiches

so good.

hopefully your injury is soon mended and you're back at it!

katt · 11-13-2007, 06:34 PM

Ha ha ha....wait....no, I guess that's true.

Pylon · 11-13-2007, 07:34 PM

Thanks, Scar. Update below.

Yes Katt, they had it a while back.

OK, so no gym time. The groin is still achy (more in the joint that the muscle) and the fingers are still stiff, though I think they are improving. Dealing with a really ugly work situation, starting to look for a new home. Anyone need an HR director?

boilermaker · 11-14-2007, 03:56 PM

I try not to use groin, stiff and fingers in the same sentence.

Good luck with the work situation

Happy turkey day, all!

Been traveling a little, looking for a new job and keeping my head down at the current one. I plan on making a lot of travel part of my schedule. Less time in the office is better right now.

No gym time, but trying to eat better. My hand is still bothering me a bit, might try to get it looked at. I can function, but I don't think I could do anything like deadlifts without a lot of pain.

Anyway, off to enjoy the holiday. Hope everyone is safe and happy out there!

Pylon · 11-22-2007, 05:16 PM

Let me know if you are heading this way

b_reed23 · 11-28-2007, 11:29 PM

Hell no...if he's making dessert for 50 I hope he is heading my way!!

boilermaker · 12-06-2007, 08:43 PM

am i in burner's journal? i don't see any workouts.

Pylon · 12-12-2007, 10:26 PM

Hey everybody.....

Checking in on my birthday...yeah, that's right....35. No one is as surprised as me.

Work is still miserable. Working on finding a new home. I have a couple of leads. One is local, one in NC. My old boss landed in South Dakota, so if all else fails, I can go to work there.

Anyway, with all that going on, no workouts, no clean diet, no motivation. I've been pretty miserable. Hoping to get my personal issues cleared up and back on track, but I have a feeling they will continue to suck the life out of me until I get resolution with the work issue.

So, sorry I've been absent. I'll try to do better.

b_reed23 · 12-12-2007, 11:40 PM

The holidays certainly do not help with the problem either....keep your chin up Py!!

Pylon · 12-15-2007, 04:47 PM

Thanks, Billie.

I'm feeling better today. Been working on trying to clean up my diet. Not a lot of success, but better today. Fought through our snowstorm (a whole inch!) to the store to pick up more eggs, tuna, etc. Putting together a baked cod dish w/ steamed veggies tonight, beef barley soup tomorrow. This is most definitely soup weather, my favorite time of the year. Plus, as long as you stay away from the heavy stuff, soup can be pretty light and packed with god stuff. That should help, I think.

Pylon · 12-15-2007, 04:49 PM

Also, Mick had "crazy hair day" at school this week. Needless to say, his was the best. (I planned it about a month in advance.

)

Also attached is the boys' holiday pic.

Pylon · 12-16-2007, 09:19 AM

A full day of clean food! Woohoo!

I'm going to celebrate by eating a whole carton of ice cream, I think...

b_reed23 · 12-16-2007, 09:51 AM

I love the boys pics! they look adorable in front of the tree, the youngest is such a chub....I love it!!!!

Pylon · 12-16-2007, 02:11 PM

I'm not sure if it count as cardio or not, but I did get in 30 min of snow shoveling today.

The cod dish last night was OK, buy the way. Mixed reviews from the family. Soup tonight!

Scarface30 · 12-16-2007, 07:30 PM

we got the tail end of what you guys got I think...some crazy stuff!

how's it going Py? Weight for MacDonald...you must be loving it given that the Blues are already doing very well, Boyes has a very bright future I think!

Pylon · 12-16-2007, 07:33 PM

Boyes has been a pleasant surprise. Fun to watch, no doubt!
