45 minutes of sparring in TKD followed by two hours of bush trimming means I am totally wiped out. Maybe I'll take a nap?

[Siniri]

That stinks, Blue. I matched zero and got a pirate altachuck or something.

Barely managed to spin before midnight NST. Goodnight!

Two hours of bush trimming sounds like a sufficiently long time to definitely deserve a nap.

I really need finally to get out and trim my hedges. I have been putting it off for far too long. Unfortunately, I have little time over the next couple of months with only one day each week free from (on-site) work. Since February is the month to plant roses, I have 3 really old and woody roses that need to be replaced. That is likely the next upcoming Saturday, assuming it is not raining...

I am still sore from the yardwork. It's getting better, but yesterday was ouch.

[Siniri]

7k today.

I need to finish weeding the garden bed for spring planting. Good luck with the rose planting, Blue. It feels weird to wish a Californian no rain, but hopefully Saturday only is dry enough for you to get it done. And the rest of the week isn't too rainy.

Hopefully you're feeling better soon, Pickles.

I went to bed at 7 with a migraine. I'm glad I set an alarm for neopets. Now it's back to sleep. At least the migraine is gone. I should be able to wake up nice and early to do my knee exercises and get some stuff done before work.

Ugh, migraines are no fun. I hope you were able to get up today and have no issues.
Good luck with the roses, Blue! We're eventually hoping to put in some roses. Our goal for this year is fruit trees. It was supposed to happen last year, but never did.
I'm still sore and icky...but no relief for me today. Can't afford to miss a class, even though I really want to just curl up with a heating pad. Ah, well.

[Siniri]

Sometimes moving more helps you feel less sore. It still stinks while you do it, though! Hopefully it wasn't too bad.

I couldn't go back to sleep until nearly 6am... *sigh*

At least I have tomorrow off. Just a physical therapy appointment at... 11:30am. That's later than I thought! Woo.

Been trying to get some healthcare stuff done. I watched all 4 hours of the impeachment hearing tonight (on Youtube on double time, but it was still really hard to watch -- I just don't think politicians should be trusted to conduct trials -- it's literally never worked in nearly 250 years in the U.S.)

Tomorrow, I need to try to schedule my physical, complain to the mattress company (their prices on Amazon are way cheaper than buying direct from them), calculate utilities that my housemates owe me, and I forget what else. Blargh stuff. Research plasma rich platelet injections, decide if I want them, figure out what supplements will increase their chance of success, start taking them... Do my taxes and student loan stuff... Find a place to live starting in July.... Cook. Clean. Email professors... Okay, that's my list. I'll pick 2 and get them done before therapy. Then maybe 2 more afterwards?

Sorry you didn't get back to sleep for so long, Siniri. That stinks.

I'm still pretty bleh, but it is what it is. Thankfully, I don't have a lot to do today aside from getting school done with the kids (at least, not until church this evening.) I'll probably get some laundry and minor cleaning/tidying around the house done, but other than that, I'm going to try and let my body rest some today. Mr. P is worried that I'm still overdoing things, and he might be right, but I can't literally sit around all day, even if he is still working from home. Things still gotta get done. Who knows. Maybe we'll finally move to our Valentine's decorations today? That'd be nice. I'm kinda tired of looking at the snowflakes at this point, especially since it's going to get up to 85 here today.

Glad you're becoming less sore, P! More classes are likely difficult, but the movement and more use of the same sore muscles should start feeling better one of these days...

Nice list, Siniri! Also like the "just 2 now" to get done. Slices are nice.

I have finally started to come to a decision to not take on even one more project until I finish most, if not all, of my current list. Sure, the one more thing would be fun and a nice distraction, but far too many things are stacking up. One at a time, they need to be done!

[Siniri]

I got nothing done today on the list! No, that's not true, I did cook. And go to physical therapy, of course. And I talked to my cousin for 2.5 hours on the phone; she gave me some great advice about my knee. That's the first time we've talked (besides FB) since the one time we met nearly 30 years ago!

Then I fell asleep on the couch watching the impeachment stuff around 9pm. Woke up at 2:05! Just finished dailies. I'm still tired, and I just finished dailies, so it's back to bed. Hopefully I can wake up early and get some stuff done before work. I should need only 3-4 more hours of sleep (didn't sleep well last night). I'll set my alarm for the usual time, though.

Oh, and I accidentally clicked outside the box when I went back to Trudy's tab, so I've no idea what I spun today. We'll assume match 2, I guess. Too lazy to look up what that is. Or if I don't get a RLB by the end, then maybe it was that. *shrugs*

I hope you beat the fire drill, Blue! Pickles, be kind to your body. Hopefully you got some decorations up.

It was 70 degrees here, so I took a couple long walks outside. It's supposed to cool off a bit later in the week, but right now, the polar vortex is supposed to miss us (just normal winter), so I'm grateful.

Vday decor got up, mostly because the kids did it. I'm not anywhere as sore today, thankfully. They just keep having us work different muscles, so the ones that are sore are still sore and then I end up with other ones also sore. At least it's getting better. Second day in a row, though, that the kids focused and got school done quickly.

Glad you didn't do anything on your list and got some much needed sleep. Lack of sleep is not good for you.

Yay on getting VDay decorations up! Hopefully the muscles start to settle in soon.

Fire drill was deferred one day because the new guy responsible did not know how to run it. Instead of explaining it, I referred him to talk with the safety manager today to get all the details... so, today I quickly left at about 5 before 7pm... just in time. Was out of the parking lot before it started.

[Siniri]

Matched 2 today. Missed seeing the amount again.

Glad you got V-Day decorations up and are feeling less sore. And glad you missed the fire drill, Blue - and delegated the training!
