Brief Cold SNAP

 Nothing like what we experienced a week ago. I got to the gym and I actually made gains, rather than losing ground. Probably because I worked out a lot with my free weights while I was stuck indoors.

I Had A Lot To Do

 There was a lot of catching up for me to do but I accomplished it all yesterday. I can start getting back to normal in terms of my daily routines and I'm no longer housebound, hemmed in by snow and ice and extreme cold. How I hate winter. 

While I was stuck in the house I exercised more than I normally would, and that was a good thing, at least. I did a lot of jogging indoors, for instance. There are two exercises I just can't do at home: hip adduction and hip abduction, with high resistance, up to 160 lbs.  And there's just no substitute for the gym machine I use for those exercises. 

The Snow Melts Slowly

 More sun today and warmer temps will help the process. I got the car out of the garage yesterday to get some things I ran low on during the siege and put a few miles on it to charge the battery-- cautious miles. I'll try more today, and yet more tomorrow. Winter sucks. 

I will be happy to return to my normal routines. Everything has been disrupted since last week, Friday. 

More Sun Still warming

 The sooner all the snow melts the better. What a lousy weekend. I need things getting back to normal. How I hate winter. The winters seem to be getting worse. The only bright spot is that we needed the precipitation. I wish it had been in the form of rain. Simple rain. 

Sunshine!

 We are finally starting to warm and recover. What a lousy weekend that was. Too much snow. No ice storm and not much sleet but quite a lot of snow. It will take some time for that to melt. Maybe tomorrow we will be above freezing. 

My preparations were adequate.
