and another one
That is, another pretty good day—I’m on a roll. Made it to the gym all three days this week again! Yoga class today after weight machines and treadmill, usual warm-up. One of my gym buddies made fudge (bad man!!!) and gave me some….how could I refuse? This is the man who talked me into starting at the gym last year. He’s the grandfather of a girl A. used to run with and an amazing runner himself. I’ve known the whole family for years. It’s in the fridge, it was practically liquid by the time I got home, it’s so hot here. I’ll have A eat it. She never turns down chocolate.
Food: bfsk: grapenuts cereal w/ skim, tea w/ skim………snack: 2 forkfuls of f.f. cottage cheese, about 6 almonds………..lunch: 1& 1/2 piece cheese pizza, small………snack: kiwi, 2 rye crackers w/1 thin slice Swiss…….dinner:bowl homemade vegtable soup
I didn’t pick A. up after school till almost 5:30, she was working on an ensemble orchestra piece with 2 others and her teacher…….this amazes me–school is over at 2:15 and yet all these teachers and students are still there……..I’m pretty sure that when I went to school the school was totally empty on a Friday and locked tight 15 min. after last bell.
I’m going to curl up and read my book–Shiver by Lisa Jackson and try to watch Valerie Bertinelli in Claire tonight on Hallmark and those are the extent of my plans. Well, I just checked the old pedometer and I guess I’ll walk the dog first, need to rack up some more steps.
G’nite!

Hiya. Just got back from my dinner with Serene. We didn’t go to the movies because I arrived too late - stuck in a traffic jam for a bit of the way plus, I went against my better judgement and took the freeway, which usually terrifies me. I know local roads to get to the Tappan Zee - that’s how I came home. We went to a place called the City Diner in White Plains - it’s not really a diner. The food is pretty up market. I had a salmon sandwich with mesclun salad on the side. It was good, not great. Had to chew soooo slowly. Then….my last splurge for awhile….creme brule. They make it there, so it’s fresh. Have you ever tasted a dessert at a restaraunt and tasted…..the fridge? This wasn’t like that. Ohhhhhmyyyyy. Good. Second best I’ve ever tasted. I’ve never made it at home. I’m now wearing that creme brule, just below the belt.
Mother was simmering with pent up boredom and frustration when I arrived home. So. Change of plans. Get her out before she explodes, laundry afterwards.

Hog that I am, I took up all that message space and never said hope your evening is fun and your week-end too. Hope your daugther liked the brownie, and yes, they sure do spend a lot of time at school these days. Teachers and students alike! It’s good though, most of the time, aye?
G’night, Rubes.

Well done on the gym - both for making it 3 times and for bringing the fudge back home.
I wouldn’t have been able to do that - the fudge. I read your food diary and you are doing soooo well there too.
I could make it to gym only twice last week. Must must not repeat that this week.
take care,
iniya
PS How is the book? what genre? I will try to check if they have it in my library.
