Just a numbers game

I continue to struggle with the whole numbers game again this week. I have decided that I could just live my life without having to deal with numbers in any form or fashion. Here is a lists of numbers that just seem to be getting and staying on my last nerve!

  1. The Dirty Dozen total reps numbers in Keller. We did the dirty dozen on Monday. It consists of 6 exercises done twice for one minute each time doing as many reps as possible. My goal for the day was 700 reps and I got 698!!! 2 tiny reps short! Ugh!!!
  2. Quantitative math numbers...I will just say I hate this math class. I could care less how to put numbers in scientific notation or how to scale a map. Geez! Just give me the GPS and Carly Jo to run it and I don't need no stinkin' map scaling. Duh!
  3. 25 pound weight plates versus 2 10's and a 5. You put the 25 pounders on each side of my bench press bar and I freak. You put 2 10's and a 5 and I can jack the thing in the air no problem. Go figure!
  4. The five pound difference I see on the scale from this time last year. 130 or 135 ain't now big deal when you consider you once were 194!
  5. Test scores: 64, 68, or 96. Is the world going to end if I fail math! No!!!
  6. 5K time of 34 minutes and 41 seconds. Yes I can run it in under 30 minutes, but that was a knee surgery ago so get over it Cindy.
  7. Anticipating that it is going take me over 2 hours to finish my first triathlon. I just need to show up and finish. My dear friend Tanna is running the dang triathlon anyway so I know she ain't leavin' til I am done anyway!

Anyway, I am obsessed with numbers today and so need to get over it. One more important number is the amount I love my dear children and my Beloved Joe. You can't even measure it!

Show up and make it count!
