Up early for my interview. Strange, I have a positive vibe about this. Maybe I'm talking myself into it. Still, I feel that way more than I have with the last few positions. Not just for the interview itself but the position. Intuition? Not like there would be absolutely no stress involved, just like it may be a good fit overall.
That said, much of that comes from what I know so far. The schedule is a big thing. Then the ex told me last night that daughter may be working Fri evenings for now and Saturdays this summer. Not sure when that will begin. In any case, during the summer our schedule is more flexible and I could have her with me on different days. Her job would only be open on weekends. I'm proud of her for having a good work ethic.
Looked in the mirror a little while ago and found I really am achieving what I want. Chest is larger than abdomen even from a side view. Men over 50, even when they're in shape, tend to get a barrel chest appearance. Not easy to overcome.
Funny, my legs are sore and gf is sore all over. Me from the gym, her from aerial yoga, belly dancing and other highly physical exercise classes she is taking. If we went out in public today people would probably think we're old without knowing the story behind it. Both of us are likely to remain more active than typical for many years to come. We already are for our ages. We can both run circles around people half our age.
In spite of being sore, I plan on going to the gym after the interview. Not so sore as to avoid it. I know part of it has been some infection I had, which is resolving with no major repercussions. Probably something related to my UC but could have been a minor upper respiratory issue brought on by allergies. I would be sore whether I keep working out or not, so I may as well keep doing it. That may actually help if I don't push myself too hard and make myself sore all over again. I'll push myself but not quite as hard. I just see how far I can go once in a while, which is what I did on Monday. Can't go much further on top weights for now. I've maxed out the weight stacks on most of the machines I use. Only ones I have not maxed out are chest press (but I do on pec fly, which is my preferred chest exercise), lateral bicep curl and tricep press. Working on some of those but less on chest press because of the shoulder pressure it causes. Have to go more slowly there.
