Where do I begin?

Food: Still pretty darn good! I had some baked taco chips with salsa and a faux beer when I got home from the gym, but otherwise did excellent yesterday. I portioned out the salsa & stopped with the chips when I ran out!

Exercise: Not as much as I would like. S wasn’t back from Texas (she went to Austin to ride with Lance), so I didn’t do any weight training last night. We had a sub in step. I couldn’t get into it. Maybe my love affair with step is firmly in the past. Today I am going for a walk here at work (which I do nearly every day for 30 minutes) and either a walk or a jog this evening. We’ll see how I feel.

How I feel: Lousy. It’s not TOM I despise so much, it’s the cramps. I am drinking a cup of sugar free cocoa and feeling sorry for myself as I wait for the 800 mg Motrin to kick in.

Husband’s job: He’s doing a 1 day job today. There are many things I appreciate about him having his own small business. The income uncertainty is not one of them. I wish we could live on just my income, but we aren’t there yet. We’ll see what happens.

Son’s school: In a nutshell: The school has always had 1 pre-school and 1 elementary class. This year, the lady who owns/runs the school “M” expanded the pre-school to 2 classes. Fine, but she also increased the elementary class size 50% with the same space. I think the class is too crowded, and I’m not too sure about the new teacher either to be honest. The fact that she hadn’t read my son’s file and didn’t know he had been diagnosed with a learning disability?!?! WTF!??! For that we’re paying over $700 a month? (Okay, my mom pays most – we just aren’t that well off). I have spoken with some other parents. One other boy won’t be back next year (he’s been there 4 years also) and another mom is also concerned. She is asking M to set up a meeting with some of the parents. We’ll see what happens. But I may be in the market for a new school for my son.

Workout envy: Have you people checked out Lynne’s site? She is doing the things I dream of doing. Maybe when my kid is in college! In the interim, I’ll keep jogging, biking, swimming, stepping, lifting, and whatever else I can think of that is cheap and convenient to take care of the old body.
