What the Hell Day Three

[cornerofmadness]

So after work I call and see if my car is done. It is. I FLY (probably literally in a few spots with as much as it is raining) down there, give the rental back (they are not impressed with its issues but the people standing next to me were), get to the shop and he tells me he is NOT happy with my car and wants a do-over. WHY did we not just say this when I called? WHat I suspect happened is it was in the garage under the lights until I called to come get it and when it was out in natural light he noticed the colors didn't match (I can't tell but he IS the professional and he'll be doing it on HIS dime so it's probably true). I have to go back monday, get a loaner from him and they'll redo it that day. The annoying part is I live 25 miles away. bah.

Work was annoying for reasons I don't want to put in an open forum but just yeah, annoying.

Got assigned my personal trainer. I just had him in class last semester. Something tells me this isn't going to work well. seriously. Maybe I'll listen to him as well as he did me. I need to text message while he's talking...

I'm glad the car people are repairing it on their dime. That's something.

It sucks to drive that far though and the results not be what you hope for them to be.

yeah honestly I wouldn't have been unhappy with it as is. I literally couldn't tell though maybe in bright light i could have.

Is your health insurance paying for the personal trainer, or are you doing it yourself? I need more help than I am really getting with the twice a week PT, and I have been wishing I could have a trainer work with me who could really help me workout as much as possible given my pain levels and ortho problems. But I really don't see how I could ever afford that kind of expense on my own.

Hope things work out for you with the guy. I had wondered about how frustrating the cell phone addiction thing must be for teachers these days - it seems like no one under the age of thirty anymore can go twenty minutes without texting or calling someone without going into major withdrawel spasms. We took his cell away from my stepson once as a punishment, and it was the most belligerent and difficult he ever got - it was literally like taking a drug away from an addict. Thank god he's on his own now and it's not our problem anymore. What amazed me, based on what I heard from the next room, was how much he talked, but how little he ever really said - it was all just inane chatter.

the school is offering it. The trainers are students. I just had this kid. Seriously I want to bring my cell phone and text message while he talks to me since that's ALL he did to me.

PT does assume you're going to be doing it every day at home. It's what I had to do.

Yeah, when I took it before they gave me a lot of home stuff to do, and even some rubber bands and a pulley thing for the shoulder stuff. But they have yet to do that on this go round. And one of the two days a week is in the pool, so I can't exactly re-create that part at home anyway (as much as I wish I could - I'd love to have a heated resistance pool! Someday..... )

I actually bought a recumbent bike last week, but I am waiting for the hubs to have time to help me put it together. I have used one at PT and liked it. Won't do much for my neck or shoulders, but it might help get the weight off, and I need the cardio workout.

you might want to mention to them next time that you would like osme things you can do at home and see what they say.

teh recumbent will be part of my exercise too since i can't do the other type
