OVERSLEPT BY AN HOUR!  Didn’t get up til 6:37 – but fortunately the kids aren’t here, so it was no big deal.  Dire Straits this morning…man, that made my soul feel good.

Work – learning the difference between a sociopath and a psychopath.  I see traits of both. Zoooom over to the clinic for a final session before our newest clinician takes him on since my Friday’s are booked. Zooooomm back to JH to meet with gang member.  Did I mention I love my job?

There was a weights date before the Zumba date.  I learned a few tricks from my friend which will be good.  I still have a paid month of training with Jake, but time is tricky now.  Maybe in March.  I decided to take off the glasses for Zumba, which was terrific as I didn’t watch anyone else. It was liek being an a disco aquarium.  I must have burned 1000 calories tonight at least, because I didn’t put on my fitbit until just before I left for the gym and when I got back into my car the calorie burn-count was over 1,700.  It bloody kicked my ASS, but man – if I keep this up with my eating for the next few months, holy hell.  

Home with a very, very pained body and I cooked a healthy dinner.  Those energy balls are gonna kill me – peanut butter, oats, chia seed, flax seed, agave juice, cacao nibs and semi-sweet morsels.  They taste like heaven.   I can’t wait til breakfast when I get 2 balls for breakfast .

  Had another lovely FB chat with a friend – a different one this time.  This one suggested I ski with her soon and mentioned the attractive, fit men who ride ski lifts.  Yes, please.  Then I laugh….  Why am I so desperately lonely now??  When I’m trying to get things together to move to Switzerland?   I’ve always been a little skewed in my planning, I find.
