You or Me

Because of the forecast, decided not to make my usual Sunday afternoon trek to Illinois.

At some point, woke up in the wee hours of the morning and saw a text message from work that we'd be opening on a delayed schedule. Quickly turned my regular alarm off and edited another one for a different wake up time. What an unexpected gift.

My coworker messaged me to say that she didn't feel comfortable driving and almost immediately messaged me to say that we were actually closed as she had spotted the message on Facebook.

There was some type of glitch with the alert system and after checking the automated message decided to check my work emails and communicated with the people that I needed to and then I shut down all work stuff...

With my extra time, I cleaned out the fish tank, exercised, read and, otherwise, chilled out. Couldn't believe how sore I was from the 10 minutes of kickboxing which makes me feel like my workout regime was in need of shaking up.

Took another bubble bath tonight and did more yoga. Reached out to a friend to tell her that one of my cousins and an aunt are off tomorrow and she said, "Yeah, I don't think that's going to be you or me tomorrow."

Nice

Had our work holiday party on Friday and it's sad how many of us were looking forward to a  half day away from our desks.

Thankfully, the party veered from the usual structure and we had more fun. I also continued my streak of winning a door prize and got a gift card. I have treated myself to plenty in November and December so not sure what I will treat myself to.

Alison messaged me while we were having our party and I sent her a picture of my plate in response to her "What are you doing?" and she responded back: starch fest. Indeed. I am still thinking about the lentil samosas; they were so perfect...

Checked my Saturday Zumba teacher's social media and found out that they are closing all classes at this particular gym. This is the second time that they've remodeled a bigger space and another gym has been affected. So, goodbye to two Zumba teachers. One of my classmates seems to think that they are pushing their Les Mills classes...

With the exception of going to out to get ginger, I've been in the house, due to the weather, all day and it's been nice. I pulled out my workout DVDs and did a segment from a Leslie Sansone DVD and also did kickboxing plus just moved around the house. It looks like there's going to be a change in my exercise routine.
