When all else fails, throw something

Yesterday I woke up in a bad mood. I realized it and tried to fix it... but I just couldn't shake it.

I was annoyed with people for some of the most rediculous reasons. There were times when I would find myself completely disgusted with people and at my wits end... and then I would see that I was probably being unreasonable. Instead of being able to relax, I simply decided to remove myself from the situation.

Yes, at one point I even got mad at someone for driving so slow to be constantly in my blind spot when I needed to change lanes. I KNOW!! The NERVE of some people!! :) lol

Finally, after going a whole day like this I went to work out with Poppa at the fire station. You know what this means... MEDICINE BALL WORKOUT!! WAHOO!! :) (uggh)

So, I went over there, finally drug my grumpy and lazy butt into the workout room and started my routines.

You know what? By the end of it I felt SOOOO much better! I was laughing, smiling, happy and not so annoyed with absolutely everything.

So, remember. When all else fails, go throw things. Heavy things.

Throw them at brick walls (while in a lunge to focus on legs). Throw them in the air (explosive, think shoulders!). Swing them back and forth in a controlled motion (abs, people!! Keep your core strong!).

All in all, I beat the CRAP out of those balls yesterday... and it felt GREAT!
