Re-Do and a Hair-Do

It's Monday.  Time to clean up my life again.  Too much sugar, too much gluten, too much dairy.  None of this agrees with me.  After a W30, I usually go back to my occasional of all these things.  This time I fell face first into all of it -- and my body let me know that's a big NO-NO.

I've been super bloated, moody, joint achy and battling a cold sore that keeps reappearing.  All signs of a gluten sensitivity.  I'm not exactly intolerant, but I think I have a threshold.  It's the same for dairy.  I can eat some cheese, but just a spoonful of cream sets me off.  Threshold.

I'm going to limit all 3 again and expect I'll feel better within the week.  I'm pissed I spent 30 days working hard, feeling good and blew it so quickly.  Stress got me.  I let stress get me.  I'm not back at first base, but I want to feel better than this.  You'd think I'd learn -- good lord!  Old Michael Finnegan begin again ... sort of ...

Today is hair day.  Last time was almost too dark again.  I'm pushing for the blonde today.  I don't know why this is so hard.  I'm a broken record on this too.

I canceled my nail appointment this weekend.  I was on the fence about gel or no gel.  My nails are so much healthier and I didn't want to blow it with gel so soon.  I had stuff to do and didn't want to "baby" my freshly painted nails after the salon.  Cancel works.  I'll reschedule at some point.

Yesterday was a good day.  Golfing with the family (not my best, but I rallied toward the end), really hard workout (intervals, arm lifting and a couple of tabata sets), dinner at a new favorite Mediterranean restaurant and Game of Thrones (it was a good one).

P.S.  Family says the apple pie square are DELICIOUS and better than apple pie.  Wow.  I didn't expect that ... maybe they need to stay in the mix.

Early hair appointment so I need to get walking my old man dog.  The humidity finally broke enough that he can be walked.  Poor baby needs to get those hips moving.  Later gators.
