Rainy Days!

It was a rainy day here. In our area it never did stop, steady as can be. The speed at which the rain fell was the only variable.

I started a new workout program on Monday. Holy smokes I'm sore. Nobody touch me, because even my earlobes are feeling the pain. Slight exaggeration. I'm shocked I'm as sore as I am because I'm what I would consider, addicted to working out. My addiction is under control for the most part but I have to watch myself because I love working out...too much! Nothing and I mean nothing interrupts my workouts. If you call, text, knock on the door while I'm working out...plan on waiting until I'm finished. Only acts of God can get me to stop my workout.

I remember a few weeks ago when it rained, it got super dark in our home, then suddenly got lighter. I quickly clued into what this sudden shift usually means. Within a few minutes my suspicion on what was about to occur was occurring, the skies opened up to begin pelting the Dallas area with hail. In the middle of my workout I threw my weights down and ran at blazing speed towards our front door. Then I ran at lightening speed down the hallways towards our Pathfinder that was on the top level, not under cover in the parking garage. My neighbor comes in the door as I'm going out the door and he instantly tells me I'm going to freeze. Oops, that's about the time I realized I didn't take time to grab a coat. There I was in workout attire heading out into this freezing hail storm. See what I mean, nothing gets in the way of my workouts except damaging hail and other acts of God.

I must admit, I've even kept working out while the building fire alarm LOUDLY sounded. I would get out with the pets if I started to hear commotion in the hallway or of course if I smelled smoke. But when you live in a mid-rise building the fire alarm goes off for no reason at times. Or because someone is dumb and decided to smoke in the hallway. Duh, no smoking in the hallways it will cause fire alarm to sound. How do people not know that?

I'm happy to report no damaging weather conditions today, just rain. A lot of rain. And boy is it colder than it has been. Ready to get to the end of the week when weather is supposed to improve. Brad's already lined up a motorcycle ride outing for the weekend in hopes of nicer weather. Depending on how nice the weather is, Cody may join him. Just kidding! Although both pugs have been on Brad's motorcycle before. Simon seemed to enjoy it more than Cody. No surprise there! Simon is much more daring. Cody prefers his feet to be firmly on the ground and doesn't trust moving things that don't have solid containment around him. He's crazy that way! ;)
