I am sick of the cold already. If I didn't love the trees and rivers and springs so much here, I'd move further south. This weather blows.

In other news, I was really tired yesterday and did not have as good a workout at boxing as normal. I just didn't have the energy. Also the coach kept sneaking up on me while I was working the speed bag. He ( Read more... )

You need to dress like Nanook of the North. It's 33F outside! WTF?! What have you people done to Florida?! WOE!

And it's supposed to be colder tonight.

I'm taking a long-sleeved shirt to wear under my t-shirt for boxing, but there's not much else I can do. The boxing club is in a big metal building with huge doors that open up to the outside. Even ( Read more... )

Man, I did not want this to be Monday, but it is.

Yesterday I went climbing and banged myself all up trying to do a route that my hands just cannot handle. I am stubborn. I keep trying it, but I'm going to have to give it up. I have bruises, scrapes, and I twisted my left shoulder enough I had to have Pat massage it last night to unknot it.

Yes, we are expecting temperatures in the 30s, which for Florida is way too fucking cold. I really hate winter.

Yesterday at work went well. I got a lot done, and I also donated platelets. That went well. I've been reading a truly awful book on my Kindle. It had a lot of recommendations which is why I bought it in the first place. The ( Read more... )

1. Who are you named after?
I'm the 5th Sarah in my mother's family line. I was named after my Great-grandmother who was the 4th. My middle name is Elizabeth for my maternal grandmother.
2. Last time you cried?
I have no idea. The last time I really remember crying was when Dr. Sunwall was buried.
3. Do you like your handwriting?
I have pretty decent ( Read more... )

For the first time in months, my report was on time. Last week's report went in on Tuesday of this week, this week's report went in yesterday! YAY!

Of course yesterday as I was getting ready to leave for boxing my email box starting filling up with emails about e-gift cards. (sigh) There's a promotion this weekend, so I'm going to be buried in them ( Read more... )

I cannot believe it, but I was actually able to work on my report for most of the day. It was so calm and quiet at my desk! I was rarely interrupted, I was able to keep working on one thing at a time. It was odd. I liked it, and I doubt I'll get it a lot, but it was nice.

Today I have boxing and I'm sure I'm going to be exhausted tonight.

Yesterday ( Read more... )

Well, sort of sparring. I'm hitting, the guy isn't allowed to hit me. (This is a firm rule the Coach has. No one is allowed to hit me.) Anyway, he's 15 years old and 6'5" tall, and he's got his gloves up over his face. I said, "Why do you have your hands up there? I can't REACH your face!" He laughed.

Other than that, my day was pretty much the ( Read more... )

I went rock climbing in the morning and was very annoyed that the route I wanted to do had a point in it that was too difficult for me. It was supposed to be a 5.8, but in the middle there was a move where my foot was above my waist and I was supposed to be able to swing my weight up over it to continue the route. Nope. Not happening. So I cheated ( Read more... )

Yep. I need sleep, time to read, and basically to just find normal again.

My work weeks are really busy, and I spend all day in front of a computer either setting up spreadsheets or solving problems for donors. I do get phone calls, but the percentage of the time I speak to donors is far less than the amount of time I write to donors.

So I use ( Read more... )
