Overdid it a bit last week. Did Pilates 3 times last week, one reformer class, one private where we worked on the reformer and the chair (which is great, but hard!), and one mat class. Only made one grocery run, but it had lots of heavy stuff, a case of water and a case of synergy (flavored kombucha tea). I know that doesn't sound like a lot, but I was feeling worse by Friday than I did on Monday.
My husband's oldest friend was in town this weekend. We took him and his wife to dinner and they took us to see "Love" the new Cirque du Soleil/Beatles show at the Mirage. I talked too much during dinner, which is one of my triggers for my lung condition, mostly about why I couldn't talk too much. I was trying not to, but seriously, how do you get through a whole dinner not talking? The show was magical. Both Mike and I loved it (and he's a pretty tough audience!) and while neither of us were big Beatles fans walking in, we were much bigger Beatles fans walking out. The show wasn't a typical Cirque show, less acrobatics, more dancing, but it was very creative, just plain fun and the sound was absolutely incredible. The music is really the Beatles singing, from original Abbey Road tapes, so you get the real deal, and the theatre has speakers in every seat, so you're surrounded by music. I've had Beatles music running through my head for days now.
Felt GREAT to get out. We haven't been out in 2 months. So it was great fun to get all dolled up, be out on the town with Mike. But I paid the price on Saturday. Chest tightness? back. I canNOT afford a setback, so I rested all weekend. Mike made dinner and waited on me all weekend. Cancelled on my pilates teacher's baby shower on Sunday, cancelled my pilates class today. Resting, resting, resting. I am feeling much better today, my recovery rate is definitely improving. Still...was great to get out!
