I seem to have done well.

I made it to my swim. In spite of not having slept last evening, needing to exert extra effort to go swimming, and with the fact that I started a bit late, I was able to do my ¾ mile regimen. As well, I shaved off some decent time. I was finished in under an hour! From now on, starting today, I will actually just shower and be ready to leave when I finish my swim. I had been going, then returning, wearing sweats. I do not have the luxury of time in order to do that at this point. It worked well today, though my duffle bag was a bit full. I tried to carry my day clothes and wear my sweets. No more, but these things always need tweaking as new parameters arise.

I was still home in time to have taken the bus. Being that it was the first day and with some uncertainty regarding where my classes actually were to be held, I drove to school so as to be early enough to figure things out. I had no difficulty finding my way. I made it to each class, on time, and ready. The first class was canceled, our professor was stuck in Japan. With the extra time, I bought a breakfast burrito and a glass of tea. That type of eating might become regular. Though I did not care for the burrito, I am sure I will be able to find something. Even with the missed class coming back into the schedule, I have an hour there. I will also probably begin consuming a morning protein drink. It is rather good for me and offers half of my protein needs. It is light in calories, but the protein shot should be helpful, then a decent small meal between my last two classes should add some calories, but the evening meal is a project in the works. The other classes went off without a hitch. My pre-study has helped a good deal. And, I think if I stay on top of things, I will be fine. Doh! I know me, but I have gotten better.

I need a nap now. On top of swimming, walking around, and the heat, one of my paths goes down, then up, a very large hill. With my book bag in tow, it is quite the challenge. I am hoping I will get the weight lifting completed later. But for now, a little rest is in order.

  1. A terrific first day!
    Tweaking seems to be never done in life. Adapting to the ups and downs, additions and subtractions... it's what we all need to do.

    Hope the nap was restful :-)
