HI everyone!
I'm just getting ready for bed, so I thought I'd write before I hit the hay.
This week seems to be going by sooooooooooooooooooo slow. For the past two days, I keep thinking it's Friday!! Everyday seems to feel like the movie Groundhog Day....same thing over and over....it never stops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyways, this week has been slow, but ok. My training has been amazing. I feel so motivated and excited when I walk into the gym. My energy levels throughout my workouts have been awesome. I feel strong and explosive from the beginning of my workouts, right to the end. We have brought the intensity level of my workouts up and I have been increasing a lot of my weights. I love to lift heavy and I love the feeling of my muscles feeling full and hard!!! It's a feeling I can't even explain....you have to feel it yourself to understand it!!!
I have been working on my routine a little for my guest performance on June 18th at the Provincial Championships. My hamstring and hip area are still very sore, but I am receiving treatment on it at least 2-3 times a week, so hopefully it will get better soon. Oh well.....it's always something...
My son Alex competed at a Track and Field Competition on Tuesday. He ran the 400 meter race and he ended up placing last in his heat. He ended up running in a very fast heat...those kids were FAST!!! I thought Alex was going to be upset, but he ended up coming over and saying, "You have always told me that as long as I try my best and give it 100% ,than I am a winner no matter where I place. I did give it my all....so I am a champion." I was in total shock!!! He gave us a hug and took off to play with his buddies.....We were so proud of him!
Wednesday was such a crappy day. It was one of those days, that I should have just stayed in bed....It started right at 5am. Dennis was in the shower and all of a sudden, he was screaming for me to come and help him....I go into the washroom to see what he was screaming at and he was covered head to toe in soap and for some strange reason the water had been shut off. Poor Dennis....there wasn't any water coming from the taps at all!!! I just finished mixing the water jug in the fridge with Crystal lite, so I couldn't use that....the only other option was to take the Dogs water, nuke it in the microwave and let him at least rinse off with that....how disgusting!!! He was not impressed...let me tell you. I'm happy I got in the shower before he did!!!! haha!! On our way to work, I had a weird feeling......as soon as we pulled into the parking lot, it hit me....I all of a sudden realized that I had double booked two of my clients...how dumb of me!!! (I explained to them what happened. They both were cool with it. One client ended up doing her cardio while the other one trained.) I am usually so anal when it comes to my paper work, so i was furious with myself that had happened..... On our way home from work, we almost ran out of gas...it was one thing after another....I was sooooooooooooooooooo happy when Wednesday was over.
Today was a much better day! I had a great day at work, an amazing chest/back workout, a great massage therapy treatment and I took Alex out for dinner. That was by far the best part of my day...sitting with Alex and hearing about his thoughts and ideas.
I spoke with my mother this evening and she seemed so sad over the phone. I asked her what was wrong...she told me she had to put her dog to sleep tomorrow morning. He has a huge growth in his stomach.(it's larger than a grapefruit). I felt so bad for her and I wish I could have been there for her. Tanner, my moms dog was a rescued greyhound. She has had him for 8 yrs and he has been an amazing and loving pet. He will be missed.
Stay strong mom..... we love you.
This weekend the Toronto Pro show will be taking place in Niagara Falls at the Niagara Falls Casino. I will be attending the pre judging. If you see my walking around, please come and say hi.
Anyways, that's it for now............
Take care and enjoy your weekend.
Love Mindi O

Hey Mindi O'Brien. Very nice blog :0) I just got inside from washing and waxing my truck. It is my baby. Took me 2 hours though. So I settled down into my basement and started doing some web surfing. Anyways I am in the process of grabbing my masters degree and have spent the last 6 months researching massage therapy hawaii. In the midst of my surfing I landed smack dab in the middle of your blog. I hope you do not think I am intruding but I must say it is great blog. Even though this post is way off base from massage therapy hawaii I found myself cruising through your blog archives for the last half hour :0) You have some nice blogging friends. Anyways, I need to get back to my mission. I wrote don’t your url and feel free to visit me here at massage therapy hawaii. I am so busy so I can only update my site monthly. Keep up the great work.
