KETTLEBELLGUY

Another great workout this morning. Debbie had to go in at 8A so I left at the same time for the gym. I really utilized my heart monitor as a tool to keep me going. I had to keep going because I wanted to fill out my chart of my peak heart rate during certain points of my circuits. As soon as I can get the time I will put that all into a spreadsheet format.

I continue to work on getting my pc back in working order. It’s not going well. I am really thinking about just getting a new PC with Vista. I will keep trying for a few more days to see if I can make any progress.

Tonight I stopped at CompUSA to look at what desktop PC‘s they had available. I may just order something online. The stores are useless to me. Just a lot of equipment with a lot of signs. I do better with online ordering where I don’t have so many distractions as you do in a store. After that I stopped at a restaurant for a bite to eat and someone hit my truck in the parking lot and drove away. Someone did get the license plate number and gave it to me. It’s just cosmetic damage, nothing operational. I will call the insurance company in the morning. I have good insurance so I am not worried, it is just another hassle in my life.

I really had little reaction to the entire thing, other than disappointment. There is nothing in the world I can do about it at this point. I guess I could have started yelling and screaming, calling the cops and demanding that they go arrest the person associated with the license plate number someone gave me. I could have come home and beat the dogs or ordered a couple of large pizzas or found a way to blame it all on my wife, but I just went and worked out.

Is that the right way to react? Should I be more upset about something I have no control over? Should I let the person that hit and run ruin my night and my days to come? Should I care more? Maybe I am just the king of denial, just pretending that it did not even happen.

I can only do what works for me.

I went directly to the gym and worked hard for another hour and a half. I did some work with setups. When I started this back in October of 06 I could not do 1 setup. Tonight I held a 45 pound kettlebell and did setups with my legs flat on the ground. I can actually just raise myself up from laying down to setting up with just the strength of my abs. It’s amazing.

Posted a couple of videos today. Having to use work around to get the videos up because of the problems with my PC, but I made it work.
