The next decade....what's in store?

Today

It started off with the feeding of the mutts as usual, and the cleaning up after them. I hope they're grateful. I know Penny is.

Then, after internet and breakfast, it was time to hit the streets. The first stop was the hospital to collect something. And it was during that trip that I had my first pissed off moment for the day. As soon as the light changes to green here, the driver behind starts to blow. Damn impatient bastards, half of whom must have bought their licences.

There were several more such incidents for the day. Mi nah go mek nobaddy stress mi out today though.

After the hospital, it was to New Kingston to interview somebody for an article I am doing on one of these U-19 cricketers. Next was the Pegasus.

During that part of the trip, I got a call to say my sister's flight was going to be delayed from 2:10 until after 4:00pm. The plan, working with the original flight arrival time, was to collect her and then head home and changed for my 5:30pm Pilates class. With this new change, I decided to head back home, change and I reached to the gym by 3:15.

Did 25 mins of cardio (treadmill and bike), then some leg work on the machines, then it was back to the cardio room to complete the 60 minutes of cardio that I had decided to do. Ended up doing 70 minutes. The second stint was elliptical runner, bike and treadmill.

During this time I called the airline twice and eventually the flight was scheduled to land at 5:39pm. Goody. I can do some of the class. So did 15 minutes and then went to the bathroom. When I walked in, a lady was changing for the Pilates class. She said to me "you're losing weight." I said not weight but size. But that wasn't really true, because if you keep looking at my weight slider at the top of the web page, you'll see that I've lost 6 pounds since I came back from Trinidad/Grenada on 19 June.

So things are working and I'm not stressing about food.

Must work harder in August though because I'd like to be down to about 210 by the time I leave for Grenada. Then I'll have 6 weeks or so to get to 203.

So that's how TODAY went. TOMORROW is a public holiday, but of course, the gym is open, so that's where I'll be at some point before 4pm. No class, so I'll do some upper body work.
