I’m cold. I want to sit in a hot sauna. I’m wondering if the genesis fitness that’s close to my new house has a sauna? I’d love to have a nice long soak in a hot tub or laps around the pool alternating with trips into the dry sauna. I just want to be warm. Winters in Nebraska are too long.

It snowed again overnight and everything is covered in white. Icicles are hanging from the gutters and it might be beautiful and it might also be depressing. I want to go to Austin where it’s warmer than here.

I’m tired and crampy and want to put on my pajamas and curl up in a warm blanket and veg on the couch for the rest of this Sunday.

It’s good to want things.

Today marks the end of my first full week in my new house without my kids. As predicted, I had a little more time to put toward other things since I did not have to do as much driving for the school commute. Apparently, however, most of it went toward sleep which is evident as I do accounting of my stats for the week.

I had a banner week where sleep is concerned. I not only exceeded my goal for the week getting more than 7 hours average per night, but exceeded that goal every single night and had a record average of 7 hours and 40 minutes. Wowza!! At least I did one thing right. As for the rest of everything else.. well.. things were sub-par.

I missed my goal in steps slightly getting only about 11k average steps per day. I still didn’t start Jazzercise again. Hmmmm, so much for exercise.

I ate like shit and any notions I had of healthy eating this week went out the window before the week even began. Apparently I try to cope with being grumpy by eating things that make me happy. Hmmmm, so much for healthy eating.

I still only worked about 25 hours. So much for catching up on that.

I’m still not doing any more where writing or reading goals are concerned. I’m still not doing anything for school (not that there is anything to do now anyway). I’m still engaged (yay for that) despite my sour mood all week and not handling several situations very well. I can’t blame everything on my PMS but my hope is that the lion’s share of my grumpy disposition was because of that.

Anyway, I’m glad the week is over and now that a new week is soon to start I am equally as hopeful that things will take a turn for the better. The kids come back tomorrow and I will have a clean slate for all my “stats”. Let’s close the book on this one and not look back.

XOXO,
