Today will be the first day I use the staff gym here at work. I don’t mind saying I’m a little skittish about it. I’m not crazy about machines...I prefer free weights & walking. But for the next couple of weeks I have to come in at 8 AM (as opposed to 9) and the idea of getting up between 4 & 4:30 DOES NOT make me happy or excited about working out. Also, there’s a chance my schedule could change permanently after this, so not to un-do the progress I’ve made thus far, I’m adjusting.
I’ve dropped 5 pounds since we got back from vacation so yippee for me. I was hoping to get on the scales this morning (I only weigh in once a week) hoping to see another pound gone but no luck so I was a little disappointed. But even though I didn’t lose anything, I didn’t gain anything so it’s all good.
I don’t put a lot of stock into horoscopes, they’re fun but you can’t use them to guide your life. At least I don’t...all I can think of is the Mary Chapin Carpenter song “I Feel Lucky” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laE3sj678so. That having been said, I read mine every morning. So I wake up this AM, weigh in, feeling bummed because the scale says the same thing it did last Monday morning, feeling apprehensive about a new routine, check my email and find this as my horoscope for today

The smallest details of your daily routine can be important enough to make you feel better or worse over extended periods of time.

Even though I don’t totally believe in this....I feel lucky!
