Nerves and careers

The second snow day in a row...and its March 3. Hey, I'm not complaining...I enjoyed the day off today. I got a lot done and worked out extra hard. Tuesdays always are a hard day because Biggest Loser comes on and I just think about how hard they are working so I try to work even harder.

So, I might have a pinched nerve? Mom told me so. I was having some trouble during body pump (I have since my shoulder injury) and my left arm turns blue-purplish when I'm holding the bar on my shoulders (during squats) and the veins pop out, I lose feeling, and it really hurts. It looks crazy. Its never done it before when I was an avid body pumper. I'll just have to go see Dr. Joe tomorrow.

Have you ever thought about things you would do if you hadn't followed the path that you did? For example, I like to cook....well really, I like food. It's fun to take all these ingredients and then come out with something so delicious....it would be fun to be a chef, plus I'd know some great, really healthy recipes to fix myself. I just made beer chili tonight....and its soo good. There are other things that I love to do....my mind likes to wander, so I used to want to be an author too. I love to read and I think I have a pretty good imagination, but I think I'd get pretty sick of it.

I'm also very into fitness, exercising, and the way the body works. I think about personal trainer (or just an instructor) or something like a physical therapist, but specializing in sports injuries, because I don't want to work with yucky people (I know that's mean) These are all things that I may one day pursue, maybe in my spare time (hah) or when I retire or who knows what will happen in the future.

And for any of you that may need some inspiration, I highly recommend watching The Biggest Loser. It really is inspiring when you watch what they go through and how they transform their bodies and lifestyles. I'm always looking for workout partners!
