No exercise today, but I walked!

Thursday, October 2, 2014

Today started out pretty normally, with me waking around 10 and reading for a while, getting up around 11:30.  I jumped right into playing Happy Homemaker, getting the few dishes done and doing a load of clothes.  I also put away all the clothes from the other day, emptying all the baskets sitting around, and I got all of my too-big (I can't believe I am saying that!) pants into the "Rummage Sale" bag to take up to church next week, for the Rummage Sale coming up October 10th and 11th.  I also got Corgan's birthday gifts wrapped, as well as a couple more Christmas gifts. I did have a sausage, egg, and cheese muffin (yes, I really got one of MY muffins today) for my lunch around 1:30.
I also had plans to get my desk cleaned off, but that didn't happen - I got caught up in playing on the pute, and then Ron called for me to come up to Georgetown to pick up his check and get our deposit made, because they are sending him back out and he's not gonna be anywhere near a bank, nor will he get home in time to get to the bank.
So - Change of Plans! - I have to go get dressed, go up to Gtown, and do all this now.  Since I am also supposed to put a sign for the Craft Show at Country Inn in Gtown, I decided to stop in and eat while I am there.  We are going to go to Amelia again this Sunday, and it's the perfect opportunity, even though it's a little early for my supper.  I can handle it, and damn, did a BLT sound good!  I thought about being good, but their only soup today was bean soup (no, thank you!) and I don't like their chili (yes, I know I'm weird), so I got the steak fries, as usual.  If you remember, I don't like cottage cheese, and applesauce with a sandwich just seemed weird.

I didn't get to do my exercises today, because I figured if I started them (after I got back home from my errands), then Ron would be texting me that he's on his way home and I'd have to abandon them to go walk to meet him, so I just didn't start them.  Then, once he got home, we had to make our football picks and get them turned in, and I just forgot.  Hey, that's what happens when you get old, right?
He did text me after I was home only about half an hour, and I walked out Hoover Road to meet him.  Carol, my friend from TOPS (the one who lost her husband), was out at the end of her driveway collecting her garbage cans, and we met up at her driveway and visited with her for a little bit before I got in the truck, and we came on home.

I made it through the evening, watching Ron eat his supper of Ramen Noodles, and we watched Quantum Leap episodes until time to watch football.  Then, about quarter after nine, I realized that I had forgotten to watch Bones!  Dammit - I am not used to Bones being on Thursday night yet, I guess.  (That's my story and I'm sticking to it!)

After putting my food and exercise (I counted all my walking through the house as my first 5-minute walk) in MFP, I had  just under 100 calories left for the day, so I put in for a snack (a string cheese stick) and ended the day at just under 50 calories short for the day!  WhooHoo!

Ready for big excitement tomorrow - I have to go help set up for a funeral luncheon at church in the morning, and I might go shopping - might - then back home to do my fingernails for Saturday!  I'm really looking forward to that - I just hope I don't mess them up...
