Thurs 12 Mar

I broke down and shaved my legs today. Maybe I should have waited for warmer weather - those furry knee socks probably helped keep me warm.

Still trying to fight off the cold, and hoping it doesn't hit full force to put a damper on my Door County week. At least I'll have plenty of opportunity to rest while I'm there. Going to try to figure out a couple of fitness DVD's that could be done in the limited living room space of the Newport to complement swimming and their small fitness room.

Thought I might power through and get my fifth exercise day in today instead of skipping Thursday as is my pattern. When the alarm went off at 4:40, decided it was best to get the extra rest as the cold is developing and hope that tomorrow will feel more like a day to get up and move. Hope it was the right decision.

I'm more interested in getting my body temp back up within normal limits and sleep than food, but I guess I'll eat a Greek yogurt and granola to get some protein before tending to my warmth needs.
