    OOF. Yesterday was a long day, and today is going to be another one. The audition that I've been waiting AGES for is tonight. Plus I've got two fitness classes. Normally I wouldn't put two on the same day, but it's the only day this week for either of them that they're available and so am I!

    Didn't do well yesterday with the monologues or the writing. Need to make that a priority today. Also, I'm going to have to take a decongestant before bed. I was SUPER tired last night - didn't even leave the garden until after 10:30, so that wrecked my bedtime plans - but I still woke up at 4:30 because I was SO stuffy that I just couldn't breathe. :(

    Recap M 11/27 - non-dog walk day (Packers played Sun. night game & late to bed)
    1) Move hourly / stairs breaks at work = Fitbit 7,685 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 31 floors. :smile:
    2) Meals & snacks are prelogged / stick w/ plan / net calories green = Net calories green, sodium red & 15c water. :smiley:
    3) To-do list after work = Most done, would've been more if Kitty hadn't insisted on napping on my lap. In reality, it was nice to sit and relax. :smiley:
    4) Unwind 9:30 / floss & retainers / bed & TV off 10:15 = Done / done / done :smiley:

    JFT T 11/28
    1) Walked dog 3.09 miles before work = happy dog :smiley:
    2) Move hourly / stairs breaks at work
    3) Leftovers for lunch & supper / keep net calories green
    4) Drink > 10c water / I'm finding it really helps flush sodium from my system, good for my bp
    5) Errands after work & mail bday card
    6) Unwind 9:30 / floss & retainers / bed & TV off 10:15

    @OConnell5483 Have a great first day on the new job! I'm sure everything will be fine. :smiley:

    @MLHC1 Thanks for the recipes, I'll have to try! :smile:

    Hey! Did you all read the blog article "In Crisis Mode?". Maybe there's something in there for us. I know I need to read it and soak it up a little more. I love the worldwide weight graph for the year.
