Go us!<br /><br />Cookies were deeeeelllllliiiiccccciiiiooouuus. <br /><br />Annie - I have definitely noticed that noises bother me more than previously. You're right - it's an energy drain just to make sense of all that racket. I'm not sure if I can chalk it up to autoimmune disease or my age. <br /><br />Anyone else feel that way?Julia Oleinikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04857783768340014545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-39183077769057870992011-03-03T13:55:23.715-08:002011-03-03T13:55:23.715-08:00Funny! ;-)Funny! ;-)stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01590844358772463697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-6416107855394489962011-03-03T10:49:52.729-08:002011-03-03T10:49:52.729-08:00I know that the past few years of being ill has ma...I know that the past few years of being ill has made me less tolerant of noise and being with the public. Too much noise and talking going on around me irritates me and fatigues me and makes me antsy. It's as though my brain can't process the volume and information going on all at the same time. I much prefer my peace and quiet, which is much more soothing, although I miss the interaction with others. Does anyone else suffer from the same dilemma? Also, I' not one to be "TOLD"what to do.<br /><br />Still, you're very brave to venture out in a gym . I envy you those cookies, I hope they were tasty.annienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-17092225905766110542011-03-03T08:43:09.420-08:002011-03-03T08:43:09.420-08:00Wow Julia I SO relate!
I get EXACTLY the same way ...Wow Julia I SO relate!<br />I get EXACTLY the same way when someone tries to tell me to "relax". The R-word is not allowed in my house. One time when I was a kid I was spazzing about a lot of things I had to do. My mom took my backpack and, thinking she was going to give me a reprieve, said I wasn't <i>allowed</i> to homework then, I HAD to sit and either watch TV or read a book. I FREAKED OUT.<br /><br />I can think of a million reasons for such a reaction at the pool - the top one in my head being a resentment factor. Other people exercising are listening to invigorating music, pumping their hearts, feeling the burn, and end up covered in that satisfying grimy sweat. Just because I have bad joints doesn't mean I don't want the same experience; to feel as vital! Maybe that's not really what your train of thought was but it might be mine and either way I PERFECTLY understand your reaction and admire your self control (as someone who scarfed some Girl Scout cookies herself last night for far less of a reason).<br /><br />You do your own thing, girl, and as many days as week as you please. And know you're still doing more than so many of us and we're cheering you on!Jenny Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14870488565611786295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-71980755238659215462011-03-03T06:25:00.364-08:002011-03-03T06:25:00.364-08:00You get a gold star for at least trying. So, hoora...You get a gold star for at least trying. So, hooray! <br />I've flung a few words at my Wii Instructor so I'm not sure I'm ready for a "class" yet either. I'm more the grunt alone kind of fitness person. <br />Hopefully you were able to pick up some movements that you can do on your own...with your OWN music playing in your head.
