Cold Day in Hell - well, maybe not cold but cooler

I was 167 this morning when I woke up and am 166 now. Yesterday I ran a mile, walked a mile, did a half hour of yoga, and did 155 swings with the kettlebell in 15 minutes. Royce said the kettlebell burns way more calories than even jogging. I am strictly no carbs this week, this is week 3 of the 4 week cycle, next week (week 4) being carbs week, then I start all over. I have cheated though. It is right smack in the middle of my period, so the exercize has been hard, but I still did it. I really pushed myself yesterday, and I guess it paid off today. At 165 I will be what I was when Royce met me. The weather is finally starting to cool off, you know its down to like 160 - JK, but seriously its been kind of cloudy, even rained last night. So it is easier to go outside. And it is cloudy right now, so I am not going to be inside on the computer long and waste the heavenlyness of clouds in Phoenix. I even took a power nap - Royce took the baby to his mom's and I was in the house alone. Wow, what a weird feeling. Alone. So Tebs (my puppy) and I crawled under the covers for "15 minutes". Yeah right, I was out. But I feel so much better. I figure I can probably do yoga and jog everyday. I don't think that is too much. And then "workout" every other day. Or something like that.

I did a spell last night too. I have found a nice little place on the side of the house for my circle. My girls wanted to be out there with me, so I let them. They were very good and very respectful. I had them stay out of the circle. I will never push any belief on my children. But I will never hide it from them either and will always welcome them to be with me. It was a spell for money - specifically for whoever owes me money to get it to me - my retirement money that is due me. I need to get it faster. They told me it would be 30 to 45 days last week. I'm hoping to speed the process up a little. I'm going today to talk to them - hopefully inspire them to speed up the process a little. I wanted to do the spell before I went. And the moon is waxing, so it was a good time.

Royce and I have been playing alot of pool lately. I love it. And I'm getting better. We may even buy a pool table. Just gotta figure out where to put it in the house. Syd went with us yesterday and played. She had alot of fun.

Gotta get outside and see the clouds.
