Just one of those mornings.....

Let me tell you how I started my day

4:50am,, wake up, reach over to turn on the light and knock oil all over night stand
5:40am, take a sip of my Starbucks and burn a nice little hole in my lips - still hurts
7:20ish, plug my hair dryer in and shock myself. Didn't hit me as to what had happened until the girls in the locker room asked me if I was ok. I felt the shock but I guess it created a spark and I shook a little bit. Feel ok now though.
7:40am, put on dress and snap the spaghetti strap

I REALLY hope my day gets better

Total yards; 3250

Despite all the random ****ed up **** that happened this morning I had a kick ass swim. I felt very strong and powerful, gliding through the water. My mind was playing tricks on me though....I thought my workout was 2950, not 3250. What's a little extra 300 yards though right?

I'm going to attack the west hills on Cadence tonight and follow that up with a quick and easy 10 min run.
