Day 116 of 125

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

Really, really hard day. I have to keep reminding myself that the first week of my cats chemo treatment is going to be the hardest. Giving him medication myself that can't be ground up into his food and needs to be forced down his throat basically, is the hardest thing I've done. I thought learning how to inject his insulin was hard, it's a cake walk compared to this. My baby is not pleased with me, as I have to do it twice a day with multiple pills. :( I just hope things start to improve quickly, as they're not going terribly well at the moment. Having to deal with this and his diabetes is proving to be quite the difficulty. *Positive thoughts, positive thoughts, positive thoughts.*

Workouts weren't as engery packed as I had planned. I was so exhausted from staying up so late to look after my cat and then having to still get up at 5am to repeat the process, that I was basically a zombie by the time I had to exercise. It honestly felt like the workouts were a wash and did absolutely no good. I know that's not literally the case but it sure does feel like it. I almost fell asleep during some of the mat work. Had to prop my head up uncomfortably to prevent myself from actually nodding off. It was funny but not, all at the same time.

Finally got the 'booty band' from Beachbody in the mail. Yoiks, the light one really is light. The band I had been using in the mean time is considered light too but in actuality, it's twice the strength than the one from Beachbody. If it didn't cost so much to get the bands, since they charge you shipping per band, rather than per order, I'd likely get the medium and heavy strength ones as well. But they're being money grubbers by doing it this way, so no more orders from me until I win the lottery or come into some major cash flow.

Anyway, it's just going 10:30pm, I have to be up by 5am and there is likely to be more vet visits tomorrow as well, so I'm going to need to be alert. Time to get my behind into bed.

I hope everyone had a good day. :)
