Vacation Fitness

My husband and I took off for the coast of South Carolina this week, leaving our son at home to have fun with final exams and midwestern blizzards.  But even in South Carolina, it's not very tempting to go outside and exercise.  The wind is blowing fairly hard and the temperature is in the 30's.  Even though the sun is shining and it looks pretty outside, I really have been having trouble making myself get out into it for anything other than shopping or going out to dinner.

This morning my husband got up, ate breakfast and said he was going to go for a run.  Instead he sat down on the couch and watched a little t. v.  Then he had lunch and a nap.  I took his picture while he was napping but he refused to let me put it on the blog.  I don't know why; his mouth was closed and he wasn't drooling or anything.  But I'm trying to be a nice wife so I won't put it on.

To be fair, and to keep from making him sound like as much of a slug as I am today, he is out at this moment running.  While I, on the other hand, am sitting at the computer desk, feeling regretful about all - no, make that some - of the calories I've taken in, but not bad enough to get up and do anything about it.  Some days you've got it, some days you don't.  Today I don't and I'm not even feeling particularly guilty about it.   Maybe I can do like Carrie Bradshaw in Sex & the City and use shopping for my cardio today.
