September 16- Woke Up, Got Out of Bed, Dragged a Comb Across My Head

Weight Loss for This Week: 0lbs

This week was... long.  Everything and everyone seemed to be stretched past the breaking point and I am extremely glad the week is over.  That's really all I wish to say about it. It's over, we're moving on and not going to dwell on the negatives. I have enjoyed having the weekend to recover and recuperate and am ever hopeful that the week ahead will be better. 

Obviously, I did not handle the stress well or else I would have lost some weight this past week.  On the other hand, I didn't gain, so that's something.  I attempted to plan ahead and for the most part stuck with my plans.  I did not work out as much as I wanted to, or clearly should have given my stress level last week.

But the week ended on a better note.  I was able to donate blood for the first time in my life, and I did not suffer any real side effects from it. In fact, I was able to go right back to teaching five minutes after I donated and was still able to coach my flag football team right after school ended.  My team is crazy. I love them, but they are crazy.

Yesterday, I got to engage with my inner nerd during Downtown Museum Day and had a blast.  I went to the Fire Museum, Sun Studios, the Cotton Museum and The Underground Railroad/Slave Haven Museum.  It was so much fun! I got to slide down a fire pole, pretend to be in a burning building, stand where Elvis, Johnny Cash, Rufus Thomas, etc. have stood and rock out, hauled some cotton, and found out that I would have just flipped out from the dark, confined spaces had I been a slave.  I love things like that. I hope everyone takes advantage of such things :)  It's good to get your geek on.

Ok, time to hit the hay and rest up before the next week begins!
