I just drank my second dose of pre-colonoscopy prep… I am not used to quickly drinking 16-oz of fluids all at once, much 32-oz. Ugh. I’m not in pain, this isn’t life and death (as far as I know right now…) but feeling bloated and needing to be camped out next to a toilet is no fun. Add to all that I’m aware that I really need to step up my daily exercise game. It turns out that walking from my desk to my recliner a couple times a day doesn’t cut it and isn’t nearly enough compared to the 10,000 steps I walked daily in my classrooms in the before time. I do not like feeling like my jeans are too tight. Ugh. Feeling bloated right now does not help. 

Of course none of this compares to what might happen if something brewing in my body goes undiagnosed. Ugh. So, today is gonna be more about making it from moment to moment and probably lots of napping and recovering from getting probed from both ends (yeah, because of previous health concerns I’m getting the full treatment and getting an endoscopy too. Yay!). Maybe after going through the whole system “cleanse” it’ll be a good first step toward losing the weight and resetting my fitness efforts. I’ll get to this right after I nap and recover from today’s purges and probing. Ack. 

7PM

Back home, napped most of the rest of the day and now I’m watching “A Million Miles Away” for the second time and building some LEGO. Hope y’all had a Good Friday. 

Midnight 

Finished the LEGO 100 anniversary Disney BlockHeadz… 😎
