Big Week

This feels like a bigger week than I've had in a long time based on WHAT is happening.  MRI, 2 coaching calls, private Spanish tutoring, new car, making a scratch birthday cake (that needs to transport), drive to Asheville plus all the filler stuff around the house.

I woke up last night thinking about everything and feeling anxious (for no reason).  Luckily I was able to stop myself from thinking during the night by agreeing to "panic" think today.  I'm not sure why I'm so freaked out.  Probably monthly stuff ... cause there's that too ... probably coming to hit perfectly with the MRI and massage over the weekend.  Why not?  What good is a monthly visit if it doesn't interfere with at least a few things.

We had a great time at Easter dinner.  Kids outdid themselves and the meal was awesome.  Chicken cordon blue with 2 sauces (one for me because the other was cream), scalloped potatoes, garlic green beans and apple pie.  So nice!

I could really use some exercise this week.  I'm turning to mush and I need a good sweat.  Clothes are getting tight in strange areas as I loose muscle tone and gain weight (top of arms, upper thigh).  My plan is to start working out by the beginning of May -- I'll have the MRI and ortho appointment by then.  Fingers crossed.

Here are a couple of porch pictures -- the beginnings of a plant porch and the rocks I painted on Easter.

New car day -- I'm excited and a little sad.  This is DEFINITELY my hormones because who gets "sad" saying goodbye to a car??

I need to take a big breath and get at this week.  It's all doable and, more importantly, it's all good stuff.  I need to remind my brain because it's in panic mode -- crazy brain.  Later gators.
