“If you’re planning on running a marathon you need to warm up first. Stretch out a little. Start out slow. Pace yourself.”

Myhusband said this a few hours ago as he massaged the charley horse out of my neck. I giggled and tried to act embarrassed but I wasn’t.

The pain started last night. My pectoral muscles were a little sore. No fears everything else was fine. I couldn’t figure out why they were hurting until I pushed my shoulders back and looked up. That was the muscle and it was tight. I immediately knew what I had done. I did a little light stretching and hoped for the best. I told my husband how it happened and he just laughed and shook his head.

I woke up this morning and things weren’t too bad. A little stiffness but nothing major. I thought I was recovering until I reached to scratch my back. That’s when the muscle in my neck decided to clench itself into a tight little knot. Now that was some serious pain. MyHusband was kind enough to massage it for me until it loosened up again.

I should be embarrassed about what happened but I’m not. The fact of the matter was that yesterday I had an empty house for thirty minutes, some unwatched files, and a fresh set of batteries. I had plans for those thirty minutes and I was gonna use them. And I did. Six times.

Six times. I was impressed with myself. I still am. You can be impressed or jealous. Whatever works for you. Lets just say this (NSFW) is worth every penny and next time I’ll be sure to warm up first.
