79 Days: Ouch!

I am accident prone. This is probably no surprise to my family and anyone I've played sports in, but I think it is seriously getting out of hand since I am now injuring myself in my sleep. Last night, well approximately 3am this morning, I rolled over in bed and BAM! slammed my face against the desk next to the bed. It started bleeding so I slept with an ice pack against my face and was crossing my fingers I wouldn't wake up with a black eye. Luck was on my side (I suppose), because I just woke up with a nice cut and bump above my eye, and slight bruising around the cut. No black eye.. yet.

Then, when I was helping my mom move a table, I ran the table over my foot and nearly tore off my toenail and that started bleeding all over my foot and sandal. Luckily I was wearing my black Rainbows, so no damage done. :) I will say, though, my ability to clot is phenomenal.

I'm planning on trying out for UNC's club soccer team this coming week. Although given my injury history, this may be a bad idea for the competition. But even if I didn't try out, I'd be playing adult league, and that's where I got hurt this last year so it just might be inevitable. Whatever.. I'll heal.

Gym today was great. It was my second back/rear-delts day and I hit them HARD. I got a PR in EVERY SINGLE LIFT. I'm pleased to say the least. My butt was burning/sore this morning though, so I forewent (you like that? twice in one week! All this reading sure is paying off) cardio. I'll finish it up Friday and Saturday before leaving for Kansas.

This is a short post. I have important things to get back too. But nutrition and workouts have been on point so far today and I'm loving life. Not looking forward to the drives I have ahead, lots of planning to get ready for those!
