No bugs, back to reality.

Friday, July 20, 2012

Yesterday the bug guys came back again to inspect my apartment. I had to leave for the day just in case they had to spray, which didn't actually happen this time. My apartment is still a mess, but now I can work on putting things back.

I can work on cleaning every corner just in case. I'll have my place in order in a nicer way than I did before and it will be cleaner than it has in a long time. Plus I have to find the room for my new r2 unit, he's going in the living room for my dvd's right where it will be a conversation piece.

Since I'm not going to yoga tonight I'll be getting plenty of exercise putting my home back in order. I would have gone to yoga if the Y wasn't right across from the county fair this weekend. I will be going back next weekend. I miss going.

Yesterday was cool enough after dinner that I decided to go for a walk. It was very quiet in the park for that time in the day. I managed to walk as quickly as the last walk I took, plus I went a lot farther than I did the last time. I still get a little of that cough when I get moving, but it's good enough that I can walk briskly. I went a full 2 miles instead of the just under 1 mile when I go around once. I find that if I circle the small loop away from my place, I tend to go longer. If I loop all the way around to the side that is near my place, then I tend to quit sooner.

It was also the first time in a while I've gotten over 10,000 steps in a day. I average around 6000 with my slow days around 2500 steps. Hopefully this week's extra movement will give me a bigger loss than the half pound that went last week. It might even be one of those 3 pound loss weeks I occasionally have!

I enjoy my normal. May it come back quickly!

    Yippee! No more crawly critters! While this was an unwanted hassle to go through, I'm sure you'll like the results when everything is clean and organized and put back in better order than before. :-)

    I'm so glad to read that you are bug-free and heading back towards normal. Maybe I need some type of chaos to help me clean my house, or some fun new gadget to find a place for. I'm guessing you got the little guy all cleaned and repaired?!
Good job getting the extra steps in, and I am crossing my fingers for your weigh in!
Have a terrific weekend!

    So so happy that you get to put the place back together. Guess you didn't get to put off spring cleaning until next year. I really wanted to get out and walk in the cooler air last night, but alas I was in the grocery store too late. Great progress on your walking!
