TENNIS GODS GOT ME
OK Remember how I bragged last week what a tennis champion I was last week? Well played today and those tennis Gods struck me down for my boasting. First of all I shouldn't have played with this rotten cold. But I didn't want to let the team down and it was pouring rain so I was sure it would be a washout. Got a girlfriend in to the office to mind the phones and off I went. Got there and the rain stopped and we had to play, in a gale mind you. Midway through the second game something happened and I seem to have pulled a muscle in my leg. Kept playing and tried to disguise my injury from the other team so that they wouldn't make me run. Problem was I couldn't run without a pain shooting up my leg. We lost that set and I had to then play 2 more sets, which took about 2 hrs. I lost all my sets and we lost the match. Don't know my fellow players well enough to know how they felt about me playing so badly. Guess I won't be the next Australian Tennis champion after all! Then I rushed to work to be faced with the first hurdle, stairs. Up I went and sent my GF home and happy because I paid her and she is looking for a job so needs the experience. I will surprise her with a nice reference to add to her CV. Then realised my glasses were in the car. Hopped down the stairs and back up and now I am not sure how I will get back down them. Won't be jumping any hurdles today that is for sure.
My DD and I are starting to feel better, thanks for your comments. I really should have kept her home another day but she worries so much about the homework piling up. I promised to help her tonight. Last night we were both hopelessly tired. I almost know how
AGR feels when she can't run. Guess I won't be doing much exercise this week. I have done 17000 steps today though because of the tennis. Don't think I will be able to do any more today. I am being good with my eating. Luckily not much appetite due to cold. I don't think I will get much work done here today so rest of the week will be really busy..to busy to eat I hope, I will have lots of catchup work to do. Have a good night everyone.
