That is more like it. That is the foods that I need to be eating. Well except the hamburger one...but I am working on that.
I elected to take the 11-8 shift at work as it was not going from one extreme to the other like I have the last 6 months. What I did not think about was that covered both lunch and dinner time. Now I have to more aptly figure out something to eat while working and something to eat after working out. (Love having the gym downstairs - not sure why I have not used it all these years).
Today, as a matter of fact, I was working out with my CIO and two of his directors. What pressure...not. I am hurting with the ruptured disc in my back after that 4 hour trek on Saturday but I am not letting that win. If I let that win I will never end up getting anywhere. Instead I took it really easy on the treadmill for half an hour and then kept all other activities light.
Tonight, though, I think I am going to have to break out the heating pad.
I feel slightly tired today. I know that sleep pattern last night was rough even with the mask. I know between the pain in my back and the subconcious chewing over everything that is going on I am eroding into the sleep patterns. I did have a dream about work and one about a heavy metal girl. Think her name was Tammy but I could never get a clear view of her. I think I have to let some of this just go away that is bottled up in my head. Need to see if I can meditate in the morning and find out more about Qigong. Read a lot about it online but there are no teachers nearby and the vidoes online were low res and driving me nuts.
I know I am rambling but there is so much spinning around in my head I need to let some of it burn off. So forgive my segmented thoughts and I get to see my doc in the morning and maybe discuss what his views are on interdimensional travel....or the issue with my PFO. I think he will take the latter subject and maybe call the men in white on me for the first.
See ya!

ok, first try and shake off some of the load off your mind before you go to bed :), so a few deep breaths then hit the pillow. As far as Qi Gong, see if you have any Tai Chi classes around, just as good. good thought...good thoughts :)
