good luck

First, a good luck note to my dear friend Carmen. Good luck on your adventure tomorrow! I wish you all the best for the surgery and hope for a speedy recovery.

I burned off some negative energy tonight on the treadmill... I could have probably stayed on for another hour but know that if I spend more than an hour on the machine I get too jazzed up and can't get myself to sleep - even now with such a late start I'm wondering if I'll be sleeping anytime soon.

I was hoping to share something enlightening with you tonight... but alas today had few enlightening moments... ok - I will at least give you a quote... "Identify your problems but give your power and energy to solutions." Tony Robbins (um.. I've listened to Tony Robbins 'Awaken the giant within' three times now - definitely good for a long drive...

What did happen today? I got a smoothie that on the first taste made me think of throw up... and for some reason I went back for the second slurp and decided my first taste had been incorrect - but not far off... boo... today was mostly a liquid day because my jaw is terrible... my TMJ or whatever the heck is wrong with me is flared up and causing me grief... I had a few hours break from it late this afternoon and then I also had a break while I was working out and now it is trying to decide if it is going to make a come back or not.

Reading.. well I started 'love the one you're with' by emily giffin - within a few pages she mentioned when harry met sally and that made me want to read on... I also started that egyptian novel and after a page, put it down - I hate having to sound out names and novels that have a vocabulary list in the back of the book - when I read I want enjoyment - I don't mind having to figure out some of the words, but gees... when the first page has a few and the book is more than 700 pages long.. sorry - I just can't be bothered.. maybe one day... but not right now. I'll let you know how the other novel works out.

big hugs :)
