- Bed/couch by 10:30 I did lay down on the couch at 10:00, but I watched tennis until way past 10:30. Still fell asleep before the end of the match. Guess I'll look up the winner, pretty sure it was Nadal. The second half of the 1st set was bad, but then he picked it up. Kind of wanted the underdog to win that one.
Discard 5lb challenge Round 2.

Positive thought: Even if you mess up one day (or week, or month or year or years), you get a chance to do better today. Make yourself proud. Regrets solve nothing, they just make you feel bad. Use it as motivation not a lead weight that brings you down. Much love all!
My life is good even though I didn't go to the gym this morning and my mom is a whack job. Luckily I get a chance to go get my *kitten* kicked at CrossFit again tomorrow. I look forward to it, and I don't. It's hard, but maybe it's what I need. Build back up from the ground with a stronger foundation, literally. I'm sure we are booked for the weekend, but I can't recall anything, so maybe I'll get a bike ride in and maybe self defense class. I haven't been to self defense since before July 4th.
Oh, V's project we worked on all weekend was a hit in her AP History class. If someone tells me how to post pictures as "Spoilers" so they don't take up the whole page I'll show you the poster (actually shower curtain) part of the presentation. It turned out really cool. The autopsy of Kali the Hindu Goddess in relation to the Indus River Valley Civilization. There was also an obituary of the Indus River Valley Civilization. I think I helped V too much on that. I didn't do it for her, but I guided her through it and helped her find the information she needed rather than just telling her to find certain things. Once she had the basic information we personified the IRVC as a "she" and put the obit together. It was a bit of a morbid project, but the kids seemed to enjoy it.3 -

Kali is normally depicted topless, but we gave her clothes for some reason.
V didn’t want to put the fact papers over the picture so we made flaps that would blend into the design.

JFT 9/5 Recap
Drink water
limit alcohol
healthy choices
90 minutes exercise
Got 130 minutes exercise in today, though went over on alcohol (dang birthday), about to drink lots of water and made fairly healthy choices today so that's all good. Still within calories but mostly because of all the exercise! Not too shabby of a day and about to go take a nice soak in the tub with a glass of icy water. Plus others are doing all the car pooling so I got to have wine and watch outlander. Actually, this whole weekend is pretty low key so I think I'm going to need to get lots of exercise to combat all the drinking/eating that's going to be done "for my birthday". My goal will be to out exercise my bad habits and try to remember to make some healthy decisions.
