Week 5, Day 3
Wednesday was crazy and I didn’t have time to do anything. I had to go into work early and then we had church that evening as soon as I got home.
Day 4
On Thursday, my husband was off, and while I thought he’d be weird about me working out given my relationship with exercise he was surprisingly cool about it. He even did some lifting while I did my circuits. He’s probably lifted once in the past few months before Thursday night. He enjoys it, just has a hard time motivating himself. The arms exercises were so hard! I had to modify some of them just so I could get through it, but I finished them. Husband even asked if I would start working out when he’s home so we can do it together, and went for a short walk with me after we finished.
Day 5
On Friday, we had the day off. We went to Asheville, NC and visited a gallery I wanted to see, and then hiked Mt. Pisgah. It was not as difficult a hike as the one we did a couple weeks ago. The altitude was much higher, but the climb was easier. It was fun though! I’d never been to Asheville, and there’s a lot more to do there than I knew.
Day 6
I arranged for my siblings to all meet with my dad for Father’s Day breakfast. We went to IHOP and then I ran some errands with my sisters. Last night after husband got off work, we ate dinner and watched TV. He asked if I was still planning on working out, I said yes. It was 8:30pm at this point. He said he was tired and didn’t feel like it, but then when I suggested I do it while he took care of some other things he needed to do, he changed his mind. I did my abs/cardio circuit and he lifted in the next room. I’m glad he’s getting back into it. The more he does, the more he’ll want to, I believe. Plus, I think he feels more motivated if I’m working out and he’d just be waiting for me otherwise.
Day 7
Today is Sunday. It’s normally rest day, but I may can convince husband to take a wak with me. Or I might do a yoga video or something. I have to work on stuff for art camp at work but not all day. Our church evening service is cancelled because of Father’s Day, so I have more time than I would normally on a Sunday.
