De-stressing after the Mondays

It was a very BAD Monday (at least in the morning). I ran late to work due to an uncooperative backpack, but made it on the Red Line after sprinting down the street. (Thank GOD I was wearing athletic shoes!) Then I had to tend to bad news from the weekend upon my return to work. UGHHHH! Then getting grossed out first thing in the morning by one of my officers who told me about his adventures in the morgues (to keep it short: one body bag and red bodily fluid LEAKING out of it onto the floor - 'nough said! SO gross!) On top of that, I received bad news about the car and will be in the process of getting a new vehicle upon my return to MN. :( Thank goodness for the gym where I can unwind and remove the stress after work. I want to get back outside and run, but I will do it soon enough. Today's workout 40 minutes - Elliptical 4.01 miles 9:58/mile - Awesome pace!

Ick, touch Mondays always make the rest of the week seem longer. Hope yours improves though!

At least you take your stress out on the elipitical instead of, like, a dozen donuts.
