Heat and hormones

Boy there's nothing quite like a really hot, humid day to wreck my mood. I woke up all happy and ready for a lovely day. I went out with the dogs, my coffee and my camera and took some really neat flower photos. I did some cleaning, some planning, some organizing and was feeling swell.
Than it got hot. Just like that. The little bit of mist burned off and that nasty, sticky, oppressive heat thwamped down on me. I just do not do well in this. Fat girl no like heat. My clothes are sticking to me, my hair is damp all day. I cannot drink enough water but then am all bloated.
I tried to go for a run in the basement where it is nice and cool, but I had t have my daughter help my with my sports bra - you know how you get all sticky and they roll? Yeah. That happened. It was stuck, all rolled up and inside out, right between my shoulder blades.
The run was okay, nothing stellar like yesterday, but it did give me time to reconsider my private thoughts of finding a fall tri in the south to work toward. D - I do not know how you do it down there in NC!!
Then I cam up and showered, around noon. Even with cold water I could not stop sweating! I'm not very good at this.
Besides that, the kids are bickering, the satellite is acting up and I'm all hormonal.
Wait. Is it really hot today or is it just the hormones?

  1. I just go and take big gulps of thick, soupy air. Last night was the wettest I've ever been when I was running. Water dripping off my elbows as I ran. Not even sweat. Just water. Good times down here.
