Best time of the day. I especially love hitting the gym early morn before anyone else is up and about.VinylGuy wrote:Woke up very early, had my morning coffee while the city is still kinda sleeping. What a beautiful moment when it happens really.
oh yeah, thats a great moment and also a great feeling. Being there all alone, nobody is going to message you. You can just relax and do stuff and everything seems to move on a different speed.Ello Sailor wrote:Best time of the day.

Alternated ibuprofen and Tylenol all day. Had meetings in person, then had to fulfill a promise to take my daughter swimming, then on a play date with. Just brutal, could hardly walk, hunched over all day, painkillers doing nothing.
20 minutes ago my wife says “oh I just remembered! I have some muscle relaxers…”
