Bit pissed off for this workout. Started off pissed leaveing my place, I was on nightshift last night and I ended up sleeping through the whole day, and I won't be able to sleep later....Have to find my sleepin drugs for this one.
and I couldn't use any bikes at the gym, there ALL broke! Like ****, replace the ****in broken equipment, but no, not in fort mcmurray, everything takes 6 months longer then usual. So I'll use my rower tomorrow.
I got to the gym at near 8pm, this is when all the ****in kids/teens/******s go.
Have to work on friday and saturday too, further backing my reason to let my boss know that Im pissed off at the piss poor schedualing.
and last night I was alone in my unit at work, supposed to have 2 other people with me, and I had an extra busy night to top it off. I was dropping the 'F' bombs freely by the end of the night! ****
yeah, tomorrow should be a good workout, got some frustration to vent!

Another ****ty day I took my 2 pills to sleep last night/this morning, and they worked alright, slept thru most of the day - woke up at 2pm and I have to be up for 4am tomorrow morning for work. I'm sick up this ****ed up work schedule! Next week I am refusing to work any extra in the middle of my days off, ****s up my life to much.
So far on these 'days' off all I did was sleep and be pissed off. Work outs sucked to top it off.

Another great workout! Show's that all I needed was some sleep!
Bench was better then I thought after the fact, I was thinking 245x4 and 250x2 was not good, but I think my best was 250x4, so I actually didi really good today!
On stocks, I relocated $9K to HTE.UN, Harvest Energy Trust, there dividend right now is ~33% annually, and its paid out monthly! Just an FYI for those investors who read my journal. There stock had been running a steady $20=25 over the past 1+ years, and now its $10.75. So even if the stock doesn't go up at all your still getting a ROI of 33%! Hard to beat!!!

Signed up for a one year at the new gym. bench is strange....but I think that i like it. The rack the holds the bar actually glides about 6 inches towards you to help you lift off. It'll take some getting used to. I couldn't hold my form/tightness in my back so far, thats why i was so weak.
brand new gym too, really big with lots of add on's, indoor runing track, rink, court, blah, blah.
Still having issue's sleeping at night, took 2 of my sleep pills again last night, woke up 3 hours later feeling great but I got back to sleep in no time for another 5 hours! It all happened when I moved my bed in my room! Might have to move it back haha

They have a dip/chin belt at the new gym!!!!! I missed having that soooooo much! No more 25 rep sets of chins for me, only heavy ****in weight

On the financial side......not sure if I mentioned it above, but I'll probably be getting another property soon. Just a condo probably, if in edmonton it'll be $250K or less, or McMurray it'll be ~$400K.
Also, got my prelim's back for my house I'm building, after I told the designer what changes I wanted he sent back a drawing PERFECTLY to what I want! I'm going to sleep on it tonight and approve the layouts tomorrow!!!!

Ok, workout was going decent, then I started roaming the gym and found a new room........the 'High Performance Studio'
Its awesome!!! Has 2 unbelievable racks (fully adjustable, big, built in band anchors on both!) and they have Oly rubber plates, an Oly platform so you can dump the weight, steps galore for Jumps, balance stuff from Fitter. And like NO ONE uses it, so its just me and my tunes
and found some really nice 'spinning' bikes that I can use now, they kick ass cause they're not all ergonomically friendly or soft, just new, expensive, rock hard spinning bikes.
So now my gym fully kicks ass!

On money talk, stalks are improving the past 2 weeks, I'll probably be buying another house in the next few days, found a 'good buy' at $540K. In my town again (mcmurray) so after this one I'll buy a few in Winnipeg. I've been lookin at Pheonix again too, but I'm trying to hold off on buying down there for now.
