Trish's World

For the record, I’m feeling MUUUCH better today. I can breathe!! It was kind of a rough weekend, but after being in the house for days, I managed to sneak away on Saturday afternoon to do a little shopping with my mom, and yesterday we went out to eat. It was nice to get out a little since it had literally been days. So it’s nice to be back among the living. I tried a Neti Pot for the first time this weekend. I was somewhat skeptical and truthfully, a little creeped out, but WOW! It’s the greatest thing to happen to sinuses since….Well, ever. It feels so great, and it totally unclogs all of the grody mess up in there. It rocks. Love it love it love it.

I made a couple of batches of granola yesterday. I tried to use Splenda brown sugar and I wasn’t as happy with the results. Once this granola is gone, I will be going back to my regular brown sugar.

I did somethiong totally unprecendented today – I got up early and went to the gym. I know, I can’t believe it either. Even scarier still, I’m considering doing it EVERY DAY. Today I did 30 minutes in the pool. I’m thinking I’ll swim on Mon, Wed, & Fri, and hit the elliptical/treadmill/bike and also do weights on Tues & Thurs. So that’s my plan. It was actually awesome. I didn’t want to get up, but I did, and once I got in the pool I felt great! Plus, I feel great now, too. I think it will help me to stay on track if I get my exercising out of the way in the AM, so I’m really really shooting for that. Wish me luck!

I also got a call from the car chick this morning. Our new Scion has arrived! We can’t pick it up today because they won’t be done with all of our modifications until tomorrow, so we are picking it up tomorrow after work. So yay for that. I already bought a couple of cute things for MY new car (the Buick) – I got a butterfly magnet, and a new steering wheel cover that is brown suede with pink daisies embroidered on it. I’m actually really excited to be able to go places if I want to!! Like out to lunch or even just to the post office or the grocery store.

I think that’s it. Oh! We are leaving for the cruise 2 weeks from this Friday!! Holy Schnike it’s coming up quick. I need to start making my lists.
