Sofa Surfing Friday

Good lordy lord -- hormones are the real deal.  Got my monthly EARLY.  Yea, because, wow, feeling all the hormones was too much to be just a normal day.  Guess that's why the weekend recovery is long this time.

I rode the Peloton yesterday and it took everything for me to finish the class.  That's how low my energy is right now.

I decided to take a day off from working out today.  I decided after the ride yesterday.  My body is pooped and I need to listen.  This is a rare week of NOTHING these days and I'm taking advantage of it.  Another morning of sleeping until 7 o'clock.  This month has been one of the rougher ones.

So what's what today?  Sofa surfing Virgin River new episodes.  It's cheesy with overacting galore, but I'll take it today. 

I need to run 2 errands -- Monti to the vet for shots and pick up meds AND I have to pick up a package at my old house.  Somehow, Shutterfly reverts to my old address.  I delete it and it comes back.  I ordered some prints and didn't remember to override the address.  I thought they were lost, but the new owner finally contacted me.  They were delivered over a month ago.  Better late than never, I guess.  I already reordered some of them and have them hung on the wall lol.  I'll give these to my son and DIL.

Self Coaching call was decent.  20 minutes goes by quickly though and it's a different coach each time.  We chatted about strategies for feeling better after these "vacation" weekends.  Why I end up compromising more than I should (spoiler alert -- people pleasing and not wanting to be different) and how to approach the weekend with different thoughts.  I have another call next Thursday.

Spanish workbook study is going well.  5 weeks and I'm finally on chapter 2.  That said, I actually feel like I'm learning this time.  My goal is to do this workbook this year (and it will take the year at the pace I'm going) and evaluate next steps.  This is the first time studying Spanish that I feel it's possible to actually learn.  Language is tough for me and I needed to approach it differently (I took an adult learning class, tried Rosetta Stone many times and Spanish language apps).  This has been a goal for 15 years and it's happening.  Pretty darn exciting.

Dogs need to go out so I better get my butt out of bed.  Have a great day.  Later gators.
