We're now into week 2 of the 101 list. This week so far has proved a mixture of good and bad. Monday started with some news about the house. Apparently our offer wasn't accepted by the bank, it was only accepted by the selling agent. That was slightly disappointing, but we got all the paperwork done for all 3 packets and they are all sent into the bank. Now we wait. I really really want to be in the new house by Christmas.
On the way home from the realtor's office, my brakes went out on the 240. I'm very grateful that I just happened to be on the phone with Devon because I most likely would have just sat there in the middle of the intersection hyperventilating because I had no idea what was going on. Devon talked me through it so I finally got the car started again and home. However, now I can't drive it so I have to drive the Z. If anyone reading this is good at recognizing details, then you may have noticed that learning how to drive the z is on my list. So, in a way that was good because it has forced me to figure out how to drive it. I've been doing pretty good. Each time gets better and better. I think right now parking is my biggest challenge.
Today I managed to drive on post and get some errands done. I slacked on grocery-related list items though. I remembered to use my re-usable shopping bags, but by the time I remembered them, I was also able to remember that they were in the other car. So I had to use plastic. I also couldn't concentrate enough to make my list so I gave up and just went inside. Devon would have been upset with my purchases because I didn't plan enough. In my defense, it's super hard to cook for one person, especially with limited cooking tools.
I did, however, make it to the gym. I worked out harder than I have in a good while. It feels good to be back at the gym. I was dreading it, afraid that my lungs wouldn't hold out. They're still not 100% from the flu. I'm going to have to go a lot to make up for the absences. I felt fairly productive when I left. It was nice. I'm definitely doing a lot better today than the passed couple days. Now I just need to keep it up.
