Day #1... only 364 to go.

The day began at 01:30 when our neighbor's extra loud mouth piped up through a gabbing session just outside my bedroom window. I tossed and turned, and finally made myself get up, then went back to bed and rolled around some more before giving in around 05:00 when I just got up and went on into work.

Needless to say I did not make it to the gym tonight. I am so exhausted it feels more like I am numb. I am going to keep this message short and to the point so I am able to take out the toothpicks that are holding my eyes open.

My boss and the corporate attorney were out of the office all day today for union negotiations which left me in the office by myself. It would have been perfect had it been a quiet day, but do you think the Fates are going to allow tranquility? Actually it made the day pass faster. By the end of the day the only thing I needed to focus on was making it home over a 23 mile trip home without falling asleep. I made it to Courtney's work where I pulled my Harley hoodie over my head and crashed.

I didn't make it beyond Starbuck's, but did not figure anyone would punish me for caffeine today of all days. I was good and left the bacon sandwich and/or Greek yogurt with them. I spot checked a tiny little tray of one boiled egg, three wedges of apple, and a couple other things. I can't believe what people will dish out five bucks on these days. It was basically a boiled egg and a third of an apple. Not this frugal gal.

The rest of my day was boring, but held no great challenge for me.

It was 89 degrees Fah. this afternoon, and felt like silk on my skin; neither too hot or too cold.

I ate a couple slices of turkey and a piece of cheese for lunch, oh and a few pieces of broccoli and carrots snagged from the salad bar.

I'll close for now and hope for a better day tomorrow. I am considering riding the bike in to work tomorrow. That always cheers me up.
