Thursday Updates

Post titles are hard.  I tried to come up with something clever or at least different, but "Thursday Updates" for the win.

I'm in brain fog right now.  Up WITH ALARM at 5 o'clock -- grand-dogs are getting dropped off in about 30 minutes.  I needed to be up and functioning.  Deep sleep and alarm don't go together for me.

Anyway ...

Tai Chi and meditation was good again yesterday.  I have the easiest time getting into a groove at meditation.  Didn't feel the soft blanket, but felt vibration sensations all around.  Still cool.  This time he explained that this is a Tai Chi from the perspective of a healer -- basically he adds the meditation and other warm-up parts.  I chatted with one of the repeat ladies before class.  She's going back to work after next week, so that will be the last I see her -- bummer.  My leg feels good still.

I had my coaching call and it ISN'T the last call.  Good news -- one more.  We talked some interesting things.  Brain fog says to explain another day.  It's not earth shattering so it can wait for a clearer (more awake) brain.

I'm making a few recipes today.  It's about time I start cooking.  More on this after I cook and taste test for my grand review - hah.

Guess why I was in the mood to cook??  Yesterday was a HIGH of 81 degrees!!!  What?!?  The next couple of days will be mostly overcast a lot cooler.  I've become a southerner -- 80 degrees, pull out the winter coats and make the soup.  (It's going back to hot by next week so I can't get too excited ... YET).

Also, today is SNS day.  The break is over.  Me and my nails are ready.

DOING things has helped my mood a lot, yet I'm already tired.  Really??  Yep.  Need to build up some endurance.  Good lord, it's been 2 days.  When I'm getting back at workouts, it's draining to me.  I've always been this way.  For someone who workouts regularly, I'm a wimp (apparently).

Speaking of workouts -- plan today is an outside run.  I might need an alternate plan depending on how the grand-dogs settle.  It might be mad chaos when they arrive and I'll miss my outside run window.  No big deal.  I can easily switch today and tomorrow.  I'm keeping an open mind so I don't get pissed if the morning goes crazy.

They'll be arriving any minute -- best get going.  Cooking and coaching updates in the next couple of posts.  Later gators.
