Bummer

Today was a total Monday. Apparently in my work, leaving early on a Friday only means you get hit twice as hard on Monday morning. The weekend was amazing but what good is that when you just have to work doubly hard for having too much fun? So how does a former food-a-holic cope with stress? Yep - that's a no brainer. Ok so at least I try to munch on healthy stuff but even healthy stuff has calories and ashamedly the stuff I munched on was a little carb-a-licious as well. That's ok - I rationalize... I have step class tonight! I'll burn it off. Nice thought anyway - I muttered to myself as I entered the gym "Just kidding!" Apparently as I was the only one who showed up for class tonight, the teacher didn't feel it worth the effort and called it off. Being that nothing has really gone my way today (except for the tasty chicken enchiladas I made for dinner) I decided this was just another thing that would NOT cause my mood to sour. So determined little booger that I am, I decided walking could be a good thing. Never mind the wind - I'll layer up and be just fine.

And I was in spite of the hot/cold phenomena of layering and then unlayering, walking fast - fake jogging - slowing down; up hill/down hill - kicking dogs off my heels and losing all track of time. I'm really not a fan. Walking is boring; Jogging is not for me. Dealing with weather is unpredictable and dang it, I just love my class. I think it's par for the course this time of year. Everyone gets busy and it becomes harder to be indoors for a class. But it sure would be nice if I could know ahead of time when they aren't going to have it. Then maybe (just maybe) I wouldn't eat a 2nd helping of chicken enchiladas at dinner..... *burp* ~excuse me!~
