OK. I went. I twisted and turned and sweated. I have no core. Yup. Me. I can't balance worth beans. And when she wanted me to bend my leg under me or do those funny leg positions and squats I wondered why oh, oh why was I doing this and not lying on the couch watching CSI.
But I'll go back. Because my core sucks. Every Thursday night at 8:30-9:30 pm. I'm usually in bed at that time watching CSI.
Having worked in the hospital at Christmas, no friggin way does someone have surgery the day before the almost 50% shutdown of a hospital for 2 weeks. If there are any complications I'm SOL for reaching anyone with any knowledge of fixing me up. The booking dept is closed until Monday morning but I left a message to say NO. They will need to reschedule me sometime in January like the surgeon said. It's all elective anyway. What if I were to die during surgery. What a nice Christmas present that would be for my family.
You know what is really amazing. I have actually had 3 surgeries in the month of December. Because no one else wants to miss out on their turkey dinner. Not this time I say.
Just ranting here.
And in other news, I start at a new location for work on Monday. I still work for the same employer but a different team. I've gone from a 10 minute drive last summer, to a 20 minute drive at my current location to a 40 minutes drive north of the city. Should be exciting because I have had nothing to do for the last three weeks, other than read books. At least it will be an experience. And I'll still have a job when all the others are downsized in a couple of years.
I think ahead.

I remember when I was deciding on the date for my lapband op and chose 18th December I was surprised that I was able to choose any time of day I wanted - now based on what you say I can see why!
I know what you mean about your friend cum previous workmate. I saw my ex boss the other day in the hospital and told her that I now had so far to walk from the carpark that I was doing an extra half hour a day walking - and was enjoying it. "Right" she said "so from next week you'll have to carry weights to make it harder". So far so similar to you, but the difference I'm afraid is that I said sod off. My inherent laziness is stronger than I am, whereas you try. Guess whose going to live longer...

Good for you for trying new things! I'm always a chicken to try new exercises, for fear of looking like the stupid fat girl that doesn't know what she is doing! You'll never know what you'll like until you try it!
Nice Rant! LOL! I should do one too. I feel it coming on!
Great that you are ahead of the game job wise.
lolol I love that you called her a turd!
There is no way I would have surgery on the 23rd of Dec. You have got to be kidding me!
Um surgery on Dec 23 is crazy talk. No way - not for my iMom.
I love you!
Good for you for trying anything! I want to work on my core also.... Are you still having bouts with your gallbladder? It was a relief for me to have it done with...
Miss you!
I am glad you are not having too much trouble with your gallstones so that you can say no to the Christmas date :o) I hope you get a better date soon :o) and have fu at your new location!
Oh, good luck with the GB surgery (early.)
Sorry about the commute- it sucks but you have a wonderful attitude.
Good to see you!!
Good for you! There is no way I would want to have surgery 2 days before Christmas!!
I'm so glad you're telling them NO WAY. Enjoy your holiday. Besides, you deserve the best of care not some fill-in doc.
Love to you!
Surgery over the holiday? No freaking way! Hopefully you were able to get it rescheduled!
Ahhhh, Line Dancing.....the core of every high school dance and prom I attended. I've been line dancing pretty much since birth. Not by choice either, when you live in Hickville, USA, that's the only dance you dance. Lol. Oh the memories.
Good luck on your surgery!!
