I
knew if I started this week as badly as I finished the last one, I
would probably continue to do badly. Since my son's paper is pretty
well done, I was able to conduct my day better. I didn't go quite
every hour, but I did pretty well. I didn't always remember my timer,
but I checked my times and remembered better than I anticipated.

I
didn't do too badly today. I had hoped to do better, but developed a
late afternoon migraine. I can't seem to escape the sun. It keeps
hammering at me. I felt enough better later in the day to dance one
more time, but I didn't get as much in as I'd hoped.

I
did pretty well today, despite the fact that it's Fun in Writing day.
I had a great time at writing group and enjoyed the fact it was
overcast. I suppose I should explain this battle I have with
sunshine. I get migraines that are brought on by bright light,
particularly glare, but a zap in the eyes from the sun, is also
really bad. I realize the irony of my living in Florida with this
condition, but it wasn't this bad when I moved here.

Wasn't
too bad a day. I had more time at home. Although I had a slight
headache, it wasn't bad enough to keep me from exercising. I got a
new idea for a story, so my times got a little erratic.

Today
wasn't quite as good. I kept getting interrupted. It was a very
frustrating day, all things considered. I had to pick up my son from
work, then he had to go shopping, so I drove him over there. The
traffic was horrendous because of Bike Week. I had to take a back way
and it slowed us down. At least I wasn't stuck in stop and go traffic
for an hour.

You
may notice that I tend to favor certain songs, like F**k You, Rumble
& Sway and Into the Jungle. This is because they have a good beat
and aren't too fast. They are also ripping good songs and I enjoy
them. I am particularly hooked on Into the Jungle. It has a great
bass line and lots of drums. It makes me want to dance.
The
important thing here is to find things that make me want to get out
of my chair and move. I've put together a playlist on YouTube that I
call “Songs that Make Me Want to Dance” When my timer goes off,
if I don't have a good song on the playlist I'm currently listening
to, I pull that one up and grab a song.
I
have noticed that my body is responding to this exercise positively.
I notice when I haven't done as much in a day. I get stiff and sore.
I
do need to work on getting the posts done more efficiently. It's
almost Tuesday and I haven't gotten this post up yet. Ah well.
I
didn't get my measurements or weight done today. I had a show this
afternoon, and that set off my schedule considerably.
