The weather prediction was gloomy with mixed precipitation and ice from 6 am until 2 pm. Hence I stayed at home and had a blast. My office and home gym are in the former recreation room of the house.

I worked on some papers that I promised to write and did extensive emails for the week. I made a few phone calls and then dug into exercise. I did my resistance bands, worked on the fitness ball, and threw my kettlebells. Then I worked on my abs and balance. I put in a Billy Blanks cardio kickboxing DVD and worked out also.

I had time to cook, to review recipes and then plan some new meals. I even did some mending. What a peaceful day. I needed the time after Bob's illness during the night.
