Boo Hoo!!Back to Work!

I was dismissed today from jury duty. I was certain that I would be selected. I spent 2 days in the jury box as "#7" only to be cut. I am disappointed. However, good things did come from an early dismissal.

I met my friend for lunch and she shared about her trip to New York, he 6-month anniversary with her girlfriend and her return to the gym. She also mentioned that she noticed my weight loss. That made me feel great.

It was great not to have to be anywhere until 9:30. I would very much enjoy a 9:30 to 4:30 schedule daily. My current schedule is 7:30 to 4. I changed it recently so that I can make it to step as well as get my workout into my day before I am starving. It is incredible what the hour does for my psyche. I am at the office for about an hour before my supervisor and am leaving right as my energy is waning. This has been a great lift to my spirit. The schedule change also allows me to enjoy more sun during the day.

So, tomorrow, I'll be back in the office. Fortunately, it is only for part of the day. I will probably take a solo trip to another county for some work on Monday as my co-worker's mother is set for surgery and there is pressure from our supervisor to do all of these tasks. Sadly, my co-worker and I see a lot of this work as "wasted energy." Oh well, it's better than being in the office.

My friend from work emailed me to share that she had a dream about me. She said that we were running. (She is an avid runner and agreed to run the half with me.) Well, she said that while we were running, I was talking about MY wedding. The strange thing is that last night, Matt shared that he was thinking about our future together and that he was thinking about what our kids would look like. It's as if she sensed this. I thought it was pretty neat.

I have a wacky couple of hours to take care of some work things. I have to drop off my car at the dealership for air conditioning repair, then, get a rental car for work purposes then hit the gym. I should just bring all of my workout items and head to the gym close to the dealership. It stays a bit less crowded than the one closer to my house.

Here's a wacky story: Matt comes out to watch me play my last game. I told my friend, Mark, who is on the opposing team, that I was going to introduce them. I call Mark over and Matt and he look at each other and say, "Don't you work out in MV?!" How crazy is that! They already have crossed paths MANY times. It was pretty cool. So, all this time I have been sharing about Matt to Mark and they know of each other. LOL Small world!!
