Too Darned HOT!!!

A high of 95F/35C this afternoon. Too hot to even breath outdoors. It's my friend Diana's birthday today (my dear friend and golf buddy you met in a post the other day). She LOVES to swim, so she came over mid-afternoon and we spent a lovely hour in the pool here at my condo association. No one else was around and the sky was super blue! What a way to cool down, right to the core.

My Pilates instructor Nancy came over this morning. I'd asked her if she'd be willing to work with me on my machine to develop a 20-30 minute workout so that I can start to get my poor body back into shape. It's been a tough couple of years, starting with a knee replacement almost two years ago and just going on from there. At any rate, it was terrific to work with her again (we figured out that it's been almost 7 years!) and now I've got a practice that I can build on as I get stronger.

Other than that, I've got a draft of a long post for my blog written - I'll polish it up in the morning. Going backwards in time to grad school again, where I delved into my adoption in a very deep and mindful way.

Hot again tomorrow so I'll be out early. Oh and hey, I started using my CPAP machine last night. Although I didn't sleep through the entire night, I felt remarkably better this morning. I went from 15 "events" (not breathing for more than 10 seconds) an hour to an average of .5 an hour. No wonder I was tired all the time!
