naps, heat, life in general

I had a brief meeting with my manager yesterday to discuss job performance. I do a good job of staying positive. This is nice to know considering right now I just feel overwhelmed.

It's end of July in Charlotte, it's hot. Last Friday Southpark area flooded. It was the first night of restaurant week. I can only imagine the chaos as all that traffic was trying to navigate through flooding to get to their restaurant for their reservation. So so so thankful I was able to give my restaurant gig up!

I slept in my car for 30 minutes today at lunch. I was so tired. It's the heat, that's the only thing I can think of, that is making me so tired. My car is parked in the shade so I put the sunshield up, rolled the windows all the way down and at 11 there was enough of a breeze that I didn't sweat.

I forced myself to the gym last night. I tried to run but my knee was acting funny, it hurt. Top part middle. Not sure what is going on, also not sure what I might need to do. I did run 5 miles saturday morning and it may have been pushing too hard too fast. I don't know. I ended up mainly on the elliptical. It's not the same but it's cardio.

I feel GINORMOUS. The whole healthy eating, trying to change (old) bad habits, yeah that's not happening. I lasted all of 7 days. In truth I am probably not ginormous. I can't tell because I'm wearing dresses and dresses don't get too tight like jeans do. It's too hot for jeans right now.

Girl Clean has ballet class tonight. This is number 3 out of 6. This fall she will take classes on Saturday mornings at 9:30. I'll go early for my run and then take her to class.

The whole discussion from Sunday about oversharing, after the apology the subject was done. Which is nice, I'm sure it will come up again at some point but overall we seem to have moved past it. Yet again an example of progress.

This evening will be the crazy busy night of the week. Dance class. Possibly taking Girl Clean home or back to her mom's and then my meeting. Good thing I had a nap!
