Well that was a busy day. I started off replying here but couldn’t finish the post. I swear I put it in Word – but I guess I didn’t save it.
Anyway. I think I said something like this.
Great quote. True lies was a funny movie.
Re: time for funly exercizish activities.
I am planning to go to bed early on school nights. About 10:00. That should let me get up early enough to usually fit in some exercise before work. I have a bad track record with following through on the get up early stuff. However, it is a long time since I tried, and I have a better record with eating right now, so maybe I can do this other thing too.
After school is dodgy. However, my daughter will be at dancing for ¾ hour 5 times a week so maybe I can use that time for exercise too.
I will put some effort into making a better system for grocery shopping. I used to print out likely lists and tick them off when I was busy before, and go shopping less often. That would free up some good time.
I thought if I had something/s I can do at my own home that would give me the chance to sometimes do them when it is too dark to walk.
Hopefully a lot of weekends will have some extra space in them. I know this weekend is supposed to be hideously hot so swimming would be my best bet.
Also, there are happy opportunities at times, like tonight. I went to my friends and took “finger food”. I stressed a little about what to make, but decided on rice paper rolls with rice noodles, veges and prawns in them. I ran out of time to eat before I went out so I pigged down some of the stuff that I hadn’t made into rolls. That was unpleasant actually. It reminded me of some of my eating before I started eating properly – no enjoyment and a bit disgusting. Anyway, it was probably ok foodwise. Then at my friend’s I had one piece of chicken wing and one slice of pizza and a bottle of water. After a while we went out to “The Moon and Sixpence”, and danced a little and then the women I was with proclaimed that we should instead be at the Old Bailey because that was where Peace and Love were playing so we went there. They were right. It was crowded and lots of people were dancing and it was fun. I mainly said I would go to the second place because I thought I could do with the extra exercise! LOL. It was fun. I think I danced for 3 hours tonight. I had two diet cokes and one half brandy and dry. Now I am thirsty, but I am happy.
I tried to walk this morning and did in fact walk for an hour at Carine Reserve. However I left home a bit late 10:00 –and after an hour my dog was hot and didn’t want to walk any more!! Seriously that is the reason I came home. The path went near my car but then I turned back and she did NOT want to follow. I went off anyway, and eventually she followed but doing the old lagging and stopping thing and then the next thing she had disappeared. I found her lying on the verandah of a little clubroom building, in the shade. However, I reckon I have caught up my exercise now. Those women were good to go out with because they all just wanted to dance the whole time – just like me!
