New Challenge(s)

Renee has started a new challenge, and I've signed myself for two beakers of fat by Labor Day. That's 10 lbs people, or 175.5 by Labor Day. I can do this! I feel really good today and I'm just hoping this feeling stays! We went grocery shopping last night and stocked up on good stuff so I'm all set for the week. Of course I'm leaving Wednesday night and I'll be gone until Sunday, but at least I'll have good stuff to eat until then.

While the eating/workout side of things has been great, I am experiencing new and annoying life maintenance challenges. I went to register my car today and of course I didn't bring my checkbook and they only take cash or check. Figures. So I have to go back tomorrow. Still no job, which means I'm enjoying life but terrified at the same time. Why does money control me like this? It's scary.

The weather here is crazy, so we're canceling the bike ride for tonight. I guess I'll have to save that for tomorrow as well. Why can't I just sell my car and just ride my bike all over town. I'd love to, and if I still lived in D.C. I might, but the public transportation in Denver just sucks and a car is a necessary evil. Feh.

Off to make dinner. Not that I'm cooking. But heating up at least. Salad, corn on the cob, zucchini, and Morningstar Farms Honey Mustard Chik'n Tenders. Yummy!
