OK, I confess, I am good with things once how I have slowly figured out how they work, but hadn't realised that by bookmarking my Blog Dashboard I would have absolutely no clue which website I was supposed to go to if I wasn't using my own laptop. On the road and buying internet time my husband and I were surprised when the provider restricted us to one machine! I think we are definitely spoiled in Asia. So I may not have written a Day 37 blog but I did add a comment on to my Day 36 thread. So I haven't actually missed a day which is a big psychological thing for me.
I did miss that one day of exercises on Day 33 as I finally decided to listen to my body, but forced myself to do my ab workout.
On and forward. My whole body is till very, very achy. Not sure if it is residue of the flu-like symptoms, jet-lag, running around London all day yesterday with a lot of walking, not enough sleep from jet-lag or potentially all of the above. Was lying in bed wide awake at 2.15am this morning in agony. All my joints hurt, so I quietly ran a hot bath whilst the rest of the family slept (or at least I hope I didn't wake them up). Piping hot bath, soaked for a bit and then did my stretching of my calves, hamstrings, neck, shoulders and arms in the bath whilst my muscles were hot. That helped a lot. And then a little later some White Flower Chinese oil on the really painful areas. Still sore, but will loosen up during the day. Will use the waiting area in the boarding lounge to further stretch.
And am keeping my exercises until this evening once we get to Scotland. Just looking at them makes them look BRUTAL!!!!!
Will let you know if my legs and abs and everything else looks and feels like a gummy bear left in the heat of a car in a Tokyo summer, or perhaps I might resemble the inside of a deep fried Mars bar, that famous Scottish delicacy!
Highlight of the day and month was the Take That concert at Wembley. Really good. Poor jet-lagged kids fell asleep though.
