Delicious.
Dec. 2nd, 2019 10:18 pmSleep: Went to bed early thanks to jet lag. 9:30 PM – 4:50 AM. 7 hours 20 minutes. I stayed in bed until about 6:20 AM, but never really fell back asleep.
Program: Kneeling prayer this morning, meditation after the team meeting. I used SH to measure “stress” immediately after meditating, & my pulse was 60 BPM & blood oxygenation was 96%. My blood oxygenation is usually lower than that & my pulse higher, so…. Hey! Meditation helps with stress! #WhoKnew
I need to contact Pastor R* to see if he knows anyone at HFASS who might be willing to sponsor me. I think I need a new approach.
Work: I got to work early – about 7:45 AM. I got a decent amount of stuff done.
Food: I got some quick kitchen tasks done this morning (unloaded dishwasher, started another batch of bone broth). I had early coffee w/cream, then ate standard breakfast (casserole, keto biscuit) around 11 AM. A handful of cashews around 2:00 PM. Then M* came over for dinner, & I made keto fish sticks & tartar sauce. They were SO GOOD. Between the two of us, we ate 1+ lb. of fish, then split a bowl of salad. I am going to make more fish sticks later this week to use up the rest of the tartar sauce.
Exercise: OK, the plan was do the pre-hab & Day 1 of the new yoga routine this morning. But when I woke up, my arms were still so darn sore that it just didn’t seem like a good idea. So instead, I packed a simple workout bag & brought it to the office. I walked/jogged on the office treadmill for 20 minutes, making it 1.43 miles. Baby steps. 1,764 steps / 39 minutes active, not counting the treadmill time. That will improve when the doggos are here.
Mood: I had a headache again today – third day out of the past four. It’s wearying. But M* & I had a good evening hanging out – talking, sharing photos, laughing.
Grats: 1. Headache cleared off in the afternoon. It might be a hydration issue plus Shark Week. 2. Delicious dinner with a friend. The most basic of pleasures. 3. I managed to overcome a reason to NOT work out & still get in a little bit of exercise. That’s five days in a row now.
