Here we go again :-(

Yesterday I missed my swim workout because I got home too late.  Ok, no big deal -- I figured maybe if I was up early enough, I'd do it today and if not, it's just one swim workout.  I woke up this morning with a stomach ache, so swimming was out.  I thought I would feel better by evening.  Well, it's 6:30 in the evening and I still don't feel well.  It looks like I won't be running tonight.  Nothing tomorrow, either -- I'll be working until very late.

This is how it always starts -- work or illness or injury sidelines me and then the downward spiral begins.  I guess I could view this as a three-day break which I may have really needed, judging from my last two workouts.  How else can I keep life from sending me into a slump?
