Round 3: Day 2

Planked for a minute in the work kitchen.
Last night I took my measurements and the upshot is that three weeks of lazing about with the flu and then enjoying cozy time erased my progress. That was a bit of an embarrassment and a serious wake-up call. It is time to head back to the gym. Or buy a jump rope. Or something.

Ninety minutes of dancing tonight should be a good start.

Begin Week 6

Yesterday I planked for over a minute in the work kitchen, drank all my water, had a smidge of alcohol with dinner, and a few cigarettes just after the 24 hour mark. Resetting the counter and trying again, because that is the rebel way.

I got 9 hours of sleep, albeit interrupted by a two a.m. tea party with the toddler. She is awesome, amazing, and has a passion for a profundity of pink.

On the life front, I received a prequalification letter from my mortgage agent, and have submitted an offer on a house. I will hear from the sellers no later than this time Thursday. HUZZAH!
