Well, the Sleep Monster finally beat me this morning. I didn't get up until almost five. I determined that, whether I was late for work or not, I was going to do a workout. So, downstairs I went. Went as far as I could go with Jillian. In addition to the cardio stuff, I did about 20 pushups and crunches. Still not able to completely make it through the whole circuit. Then I got on the treadmill for 30 minutes, and upped my speed from 3.0 to 3.5 mph. Seemed like a cooldown after doing the Jillian workout. Funny that it isn't the strength stuff that's killing me, it's the cardio stuff with the weights, and the jumping rope (without the rope). It's basically just the intensity and pace of it and not the actual exercises themselves.

Anyway, I was only about 10 minutes late for work, and I still would have made it if I hadn't had to take a detour of an unfamiliar route because some idiot decided to hit the guardrail on a 35 mph turn coming into town - today of all days. No harm done, but didn't want to be late on a day in which I'm already leaving early to see the Dr.

Did well on the diet yesterday. DW had been shopping all day with DD and DGD's for DGD's upcoming wedding. I really didn't expect her to make any dinner, but we got home about the same time and she asked what I wanted. I just told her, if she really still felt like making supper, just make something simple. So, had a hamburger sandwich and chicken rice soup. Worked for me.

DW is going to run uptown and pay for our dinner arrangements for the auction Saturday, and drop off the pens. I hope she sticks around for them to check them out, and let me know what they think of them. It would be great if the auction ran them up to $500 or so, but my gut tells me we will be lucky to get $150 for the lot. This town isn't like the New York flea markets you see on TV where people pay $250 for an old dining room chair. This is farm country where the farmers aqueeze a nickel till the buffalo deficates. A chair like that might merit $25 in a flea market, and get talked down to $15, or be relegated to the barn so you could set your fence mending tool box on it. Just simple folk out here. It's an entertaining thing to go to the restaurant in the morning and listen to the millionaire farmers talk about their on-line trading, and how rough they have it, and leave a quarter on the table for the waitress. Times are a changing. But, I've also seen a dozen bagels go for $500 at this auction. People can be generous when it's for a good cause. I won a rum cake last year for $60, and three of us puny little men sat and ate the whole thing right there at the table while the auction rambled on. I hope I don't do that again this year. Maybe I'll bid on 15 free trips to the tanning salon. And ruin this complexion? No way!

Toodles!

Great Job one eating light yesterday DK! BTW - Recent studies show that sleep is good for weight loss. There is some debate about how much benefit one gains in trading sleep for exercise. So maybe this morning's sleep was just what you needed. Best of luck at the Doc's.

Good work on the workout... You'll soon have Jillian under your belt... Mmmm maybe the wrong phrase to use - open to interpretation LOL

LOL, Sk1nny! Are you thinking cardio, strength or abs?

Ha ha DK's... I'll leave you or others to interpret.

I knew this Jillian gal was bad news... LOL. I actually 'thought' about jogging on the treadmill last night. Didn't do it but thinking about it counts, right?

In fact, thinking about it counts double for MENSA's! :)

The girl at the counseling center was running late for a meeting when DW dropped off the pens, so she didn't have time to look them over and comment on them. That's half the fun. Oh well, I guess I'll find out Saturday how well they do.

DK your posts almost always leave me with a smile....such an inspiration and love your stories!

LOL DK - believe it or not I was invited to join Mensa :-) I think someone screwed up the mailing list. BTW - re your 'list' being 'single' is a GIVEN. Well, not married at least. At this stage of life I don't have the energy to be any guy's 'first wife'; I need one already housebroken :-)

LOL, Bella! You need one that's repurposed.
