Good Morning Friday!

Friday, June 25, 2010

This has been some busy week. What is it that makes the week after a couple days off like punishment? I guess you really do have to pay to play. I am so looking forward to sleeping late tomorrow. I am still running on empty as Jackson Browne said. I got behind over the last weekend and although you can't really catch up, I will definitely feel more rested after a good day of sleeping late. We don't have any plans but that doesn't mean we won't do whatever strikes our fancy. That is one of the things I love about my life. I can pretty much be the master of my...whatever most days. (You thought I was going to say destiny.) I better get up and get dressed. I have to finish out this week strong so I can have a great weekend. Maybe I will go for a walk with my hubby this weekend!

Sleepless in ABQ (my own fault)!

Thursday, June 24, 2010

I got my phone and spent way too much time on it. I finally made myself go to bed at midnight. I get up at 5AM so I am a little tired today. The SP app works really well on the new iPhone. It is so fast. It worked fine on y old iPhone but this is a noticeable difference. I was pretty excited that I didn't flake and not exercise. I got up at 5AM and did my hour on Life Cycle and my FF&FU Crunchless Core Challenge. I didn't even give myself time to consider rolling back over. I might have done just that if I had lingered in bed. It looks like a pretty busy day so far. That will help with being tired. We are going to a cool hamburger stand at lunch. I am splitting a burger with a friend since it has 8oz of beef that will be perfect. I have been planning for this for days. It is part of my "figure out how to maintain" plan. I really need to figure that part out as I am getting there. I have never been able to maintain but I am going to this time. I have a secret weapon that I didn't have before....Spark People!!

  

iPhone Day

Wednesday, June 23, 2010

I checked my Fed Ex tracking email and the phone is in ABQ and being delivered today (a day early). I am excited but then I love gadgets of all size and description. I got up this morning and got my exercise in. For some reason I was running a few minutes behind. Not sure what happened there. I got up at the same 5AM as always but I lost 8-10 minutes somewhere. I got to work a couple minutes before 8AM. I like to get here a few minutes early to get coffee and settle in before it is time to start working. As I get older (50 now) I dislike having to rush everywhere. I would rather start a little earlier and comfortably arrive on time. I was not bad yesterday but I did 100 more calories than I wanted. I am being really good about my exercise though so I should be fine (I hope). It is a life long goal so I am trying and mostly succeeding to treat it that way. I know I will never be able to eat crazy again. If I do get a little wacky I will need to make up for it before and after with calories and exercise. That seems to be the ticket to success. I have always known that but now I am accepting it. That is a pretty big accomplishment for me!

  

Tuesday is going well so far. Let's keep it that way!

Tuesday, June 22, 2010

I got an email this morning that I will get my iPhone tomorrow from Fed Ex instead of Thursday. If that is true, I am really happy. I got up and got going with my exercise this morning. I wasn't to excited about it but I need to keep my momentum. It will be that much harder to get it back if I let it go. I am happy today for some unknown reason. I hope it lasts all day! That would be really nice. I am going to email the link for SP to the guy I met on the plane. He was such a nice guy and made the trip fly by (no pun intended). I had better get going with my day. The work fairy didn't show up at my office last night so I guess I will just have to do it myself!

  

Back to Work After the Short Vacation

Monday, June 21, 2010

Well I am back to work this morning. It seems okay for the moment. I am still trying to get caught up on my email but the emergency stuff has been handled. The rest is go at your own pace. I was on the bike this morning. I did my usual hour even tough I would have loved to sleep an extra hour. I really wanted the 500+ calorie burn though. I am sure it is helping me do these last few tough pounds. Now I just need to get through the rest of the week and I will be fabulous! I am curious to see my weight next Saturday. My official weight day is on the weekend. I had better get cracking on the emails. They won't answer themselves!
