Working off those holiday calories, the hard way.

Happy New Years everyone.
Well, it is still freezing here but at least this morning there was no ice on my car. I did not have a good new years. I spent it working and ended up walking off all of the calories I consumed over the holidays. Wanna know how???????

At my hospital we have a pneumatic tube delivery system to send meds to all of the units. Our's decided to go kerplunk. Sooooo, I spent the night running around the entire 400 bed, 5 story, 4 tower hospital delivering meds to everyone.

Needless to say, I burned a ton of calories since I was walking non-stop for 11 hours. I am finally at home, sitting on the couch with my feet pleading me for mercy and happy the night is over with. I do have the joy of looking forward to more calorie burning nights for the rest of the weekend since the system is not going to be fixed until Monday.

Sheeesh, I guess I shouldn't have made my new years wish to lose some weight. The big man upstairs must be having a great laugh at me for that one.

Again, Hoping you had an awesome new years and wishing you the best in 2011.

  2. Yep, be careful whatcha wish for & yada yada. I hope you weren't wearing fashionable shoes!

    Oh, and for the record, falling asleep is never my problem. I can fall asleep standing up. It's the staying asleep I need help with. Maybe you can walk to Vegas & dispense me a pill...I hear you're real practiced at it! Ha!
