March 23rd. sadness

Laurie passed away yesterday.  She was my mother's best friend for over 30 years.  I'm so sad for everyone.

Lifted this morning, but heart really isn't into anything.  Did some cardio as well.

Don't feel like writing it out.

Thursday March 22: circuit

Circuit training this morning.  I considered running, but decided to this instead.

50 jumping jacks
20 rope throws
20 mountain climbers
10 superman pushups
20 walking lunges, each leg
30 sec plank
10 burpees
10 front raises (12 lbs) each side

repeat 4x.  Took 30 min

I am trying to find things to work both the upper and lower body for these.  I still need to buy a sandbag, though.

I used the WiiFit to weigh myself the other day and I was upset by the result.  It is probably better if I don't do that.  It isn't going to make me happy regardless of what it says, and I don't know how accurate it is anyway.
