I slept in this morning which was nice from the cold weather that we are experiencing down here in Southwest Florida.  I don’t mind the cold, but we are uncomfortable using our heater due to it needing to be serviced (maintenance) and without the funds, well, here we are.

Last night, I went to the gym and worked out for an hour.  It’s nice to be getting back into a routine.  Also, I went out to Winn-Dixie, and spent way too much as usual, and bought some healthier foods and some snacks that were things I’d like that would help me get to eating a little healthier even when not officially ‘healthy.’  I’ve got to start somewhere, don’t I? 

Now, let’s get back to today.  I had breakfast, spent some time on Sparkpeople, as I have vowed to do for the new year, and dilly-dallied around until it was time to go pick up Joey from his first day at his new school.  (Jeff was out doing his podcast.)  Joey had a great day at his new school and it seemed to be an all around fantastic experience for everyone involved.  He even gave the assistant director a high five and his teacher a hug.  That was totally awesome.  I was psyched.

After picking Joey up from school, Jimmy, Anna, Joey and I went to Burger King (I know, bad for the new year!).  We went there to wait for Jeff to get done with his podcast so the kids played on the new playground for about half an hour while we waited.  We had a great lunch with Jeff once he got there and we got to spend a little time together via the Burger King playground while the kids played a little more after the meal.  LOL! 

I spent some more time on Sparkpeople and learned just how bad my lunch had been!  Oh my!  Later into the evening, I signed the kids up for soccer, went to Sam’s Club and went to the gym again for another hour.  I feel that I had a productive off day even though I didn’t make it to Edison to get my new Connect Card and buy my books for spring classes which start on Monday. 

I am full from my earlier snacking, so I’m skipping dinner tonight.  I’m having a glass of sangria to finish up my bottle.  When I’m done here, I gotta fix up my salad and sandwich to take to work tomorrow for my healthier eating.  I work 6-2 tomorrow and then I am going to head over to school to get my Connect Card and my books for next week’s classes.

I think I may also stop by my doctor’s office to check on getting an appointment so that I can get a Rx for Concerta.  I am awaiting a switch from Vyvanse (for ADD) to Concerta, however, when the Patient Assistance Program came through as approved, it came through as the type of program where I need a written Rx to take to the pharmacy with the PAP card.  Due to new rules at the doctor’s office, I have to have an appointment to even get a Rx.  I tried calling them last week to get advice on whether that had to be the process due to the lack of knowledge that led to being in this situation, but, as expected from doctor’s offices, no one ever called me back even a week later.

Well, I had a good day, all and all.  I plan on having a great rest of the evening getting myself ready for work in the morning.  Then, off to bed I go.  Goodnight!
