So thankful for a weekend off!  I really don’t like working long hours, or working on the weekend!  So even though I worked long hours this week, I knew I wasn’t going to work this weekend.  I needed some down time after working almost 50 hours this week.  I think I’m crazy knowing I’ve worked so many hours .  When I get home from a long day,I wonder why I didn’t leave at 5 like I’d intended to do.  Those hours after 5 PM are so productive! No phone calls or interruptions.  But….then I think about my shortened evening, and no real time for myself, and end up staying up late.  So the cycle goes on.  Why am I so driven to “get more” finished up?  Why can’t I be OK to let it go, and deal with it the next time I go in?  I feel like I’m programmed to be driven.  Maybe it’s my high cortisol level.

We just had a nice little rain shower here, and it smells so nice outside. Still on the warm side, and now it’s muggy.  I can hear the rain again, so it must be starting up again.

Today I did the 3 mile walk with Leslie Sansone!  Yeah.  I felt pretty good after it, but I did push myself to keep going after 2 miles.  I could barely do the 1 mile walk only 2 months ago.

I re-took the tests, and I was using the BSS book.   Maybe I need to update the tests online, just to be able to keep track of things.  I think the toxins are getting me – no real weight loss for what seems like a long time.  What’s the next step after the 8 weeks?  and can I find a functional doctor where I live?  and can I afford it?  still, I love feeling good and healthy, even though my body is still on the overweight side.
