thisnewdayThis is the second day of Jason's morning practices for his school soccer team and the first week of official pre-season practices. They're scheduled for 5 days a week, 3 hours a day until school starts, and I've agreed to get him there in the early AM and pick him up mid-morning for the ride home.
On top of that, I have another dental appointment today, set up late yesterday with a call from the dentist himself. He's a great guy and works his a$$ off and so I try to accommodate him even as he works to accommodate me.
Yesterday, I was in such a rush to get things done that I totally forgot to do my BP--something I've done 3x daily for almost 9 months. This morning, though, I was awake a little after 4 and got up at 5. Got my BP done, am working on hydration, will be getting dressed next. By 6:20, I have to be cranking up the breakfast smoothie I promised to bring the kid and then it's off to the races.
Practice starts at 7 and lasts until 10. This morning I'll just drop him off and head home to eat and do my AM meds if I haven't gotten them in before picking him up. Then, I've gotta change, get him home, and head for the dentist. If no extractions today--which I've gotta call to find out about--I'll stop at the high school track for my fitness walk before heading home,
This morning, though, I calmed myself down a bit by reading a few pages of Paula McClain's Love and Ruin before checking my BP. It seems to have worked, because I was in the mid-120s, which is OK for me.
Probably won't be that low for the rest of the day though, lol...

Date: 2019-08-20 10:24 am (UTC)You are one busy guy today, might meet yourself coming and going. Anah is enjoying having a driver's license and her own car. And thoough she's a super young woman, I miss that little girl she was.
Glad you took a gander at Love and Ruin which btw becomes much less calming as it moves forward. I'm 60 pages into the bio, admire Gellhorn totally.
Good luck at the dentist!
