Waisting Time

When we last spoke, I was mired in some deep financial issues that prevented me from going to the gym. My gym membership was a few payments late which temporarily put things on hold. As quickly as that had started, I was able to climb out of that hole and keep my membership in good standing.
The problem, however, is that I haven’t gone to the gym since. Well, not routinely. I’ve gone a couple of times but certainly nothing blog-worthy. The last time I went, I was on the verge of becoming sick. I remember waking up from a short nap pre-workout only to feel as if I was coming down with something.
Sure enough, the following night and it felt like I was hit with the Sick Truck. I battled a pretty nasty cold/flu for a couple of weeks that even saw some difficulty breathing. A trip to the hospital proved fruitless as the expert medical opinion was “Go home and take some Advil.” For the record, it did nothing to help me breathe.
Other things have happened, both good and bad, but they don’t exactly warrant a mention at this time. If anything, they’re just serving as distractions as I try to get to my point.
