Things that make you go GRRRRR.... (Part 2)

Cheers guys.

I feel like talking a bit...read on or not..I care not.

This'll bring a lump to your throats...we brought Tinker's body back from the vets to bury in our garden, she was wrapped in a vet blanket so we laid her down in the garden for our other dog to sniff. My two year old daughter also went up and stroked her. Just to give some sort of closure on things. Luckily she's young enough not to really understand that Tinker wasn't just having a nice sleep.
My wife took both inside while I dug the hole and then when it was ready we laid Tink in it, with her favourite toy, and I filled the hole back in.
I bundled up the vet blanket and put it up the side alley.

Later in the day we were in the garden when my daughter went up to the vet blanket saying "ninker, ninker" and started looking inside it for her.
Not easy telling her that Tinker was "all gone". Not an easy day at all.
 
We had a dog we had to put down. She was around before me, and pretty much took me as one of her own until she died. I know how tough it can be, so I'll just send my best wishes.
 
Sorry to hear that mate , i had to have my cat put down last christmas , one of the hardest things i've ever done.
 
Awwwe, I'm sorry It's so hard. I lost 3 of my pets so i know what it is like.
 
I had a ninjutsu nightmare last night/this morning (by that I mean troubled dream, not a bad training session)
 
This was another first. I think it was related to the anxiety I had last night at the gym when I went over (no pun intended) jumping/diving rolls and still felt some head/shoulder impact, and was close to acknowledging I probably won't be training any longer.

There is a lot I like about the training but I cannot accept that I may be asked/made to do this technique in class thereby humiliating myself in front of the class for no benefit.

There were three things that hurt the last time, one was that in my mind I felt I just about knew how to do it but my fear was blocking me so just did it (a bit like learning to swim or ride a bike holding back in itself will make it worse) but got it wrong, no one pointed out what mistake I made, I later analysed it and having watched several videos thought I had why I got it wrong. The second was the knee in the face, temporary hurt, but since we have so little impact (all of the bruises I have are from blocking) in class it caught me out. Third was a bit of pride, I felt the rest of the class got a laugh out of it. With friends like these who needs enemies!

Still. I don't like 'giving up' so feel like ****.
 
also, I have just shot steroids up my nose...they're not anabolic though. Lol. (I have horrendous hayfever, hence corticosteroid decongestant...)
 
my GRRR: having trouble filming my new video for the workout thread and ending up having to do a half-assed take because my endurance failed even with an hour of rest. upload finishes in about 15 mins though .
 
Can I join you in body hate today?

Was my squat day, and I was doing okay, with some previous weeks work on 8 rep sets at weights upto 5kg off my max 5RM I felt strong on 70kg, even on 77.5kg (my current PB 5RM) then on 3rd rep of 5 on the way back up I felt my left foot cramp up and just got it racked. I was really peeved, the cramp eased off but couldn't risk more and knew I could have walked 80kg easy, maybe 85
