Powering Through

Friday was my "rest day" from TF, but I still did a 4 mile run with Tabitha - in 90 degree heat...we're a bunch of crazies, I know. Late Friday evening we got a freakish storm that only rolls through this area every so many years. It happened super quick and took out our power for 2 1/2 days - it went out Friday around 11pm and finally came back on Sunday around 7pm. My Sister so graciously hosted me and the kiddos (Chris had to work this weekend) all day on both Saturday and Sunday (we came home and slept in the hot house). Thankfully she lives close but didn't lose her power. She also got all my meat from the freezer - 4 chicken breasts and 5 lbs of hamburg plus some apple chicken sausages. We ended up having to throw away a lot of food, but thankfully we weren't fully stocked.
So anyway, I didn't workout for the past two days. Not having any power kind of sidelines my fitness attempts. I probably could've done them at my Sister's house (why didn't I think of that earlier?!). It broke 100 both days and our house was so hot. I wasn't sleeping at night, the kids were not sleeping well and woke up early; it was pretty much a miserable two days although it could have been a lot worse for my little family. I'm so very, very thankful that my Sister was here for us.
Tonight all three of us had power again (plus the Community Center on base that we use) so we met up and did Saturday's workout - HIIT 15 and Sculpt 30. Great little workout!! It was nice to do some strength training tonight, and with two days off these felt like a perfect intro back into TF.
And now it's time to get sidelined again. I'm going to get up tomorrow and do my workout then I'm off to my parent's place for a few days. It's just a short trip this time. My parents don't have a very big place or a good internet connection so I won't be logging my food (I haven't logged in 3 days due to lack of power) and I'm not sure I'll get my workouts in. I'll take them with me; we'll see if I can make it happen or not. Do your best, and forget the rest!
