Day 358
Today, would normally be my first day of classes - but NO! IM DONE!! hahahaha! such bliss . . .
Now on to the real world - i have reciepts to organize, scheules to make, people to phone call, and students to track down - my oh my, can I really do this?
Im sure ill get through these transition times, Im going to look forward to getting settled in now with this teaching job and finding some other gigs in and around my neigborhood. Im glad to know there's a bunch of great jazz musicians living close to me - Adam Schroeder, David Ashkenazy, Josh Nelson, and others.
As for my health - today I went swimming in the glorious Belmont Shores pool. This place is great and I hope to go there as often as I can.
Its looking like ill be around 225 on day 365 which is pretty wonderful. Now I know I can get to 200 by the end of the year and satisfy nearly my entire goal weight. Considering im on a pretty tight budget and the my food choices then become restricted, it makes sense Ill have no problem getting there. hahaha. In all seriousness, Im sure ill get there so long as I keep waking up early and working out first thing in the morning and maybe even in the evening too. I don't want to over do the excersize - especially if my calorie count is down - however, I want to make sure every day i include the excersizing as a way of my life. This past week was tough because I was sick and couldn't work out - now that its all gone i can get back into the swing of things.
Rather than writing out another goal chart, i think ill do that next monday when I can see where Im at with my weight exactly one year from when I decided to change things.
So far today, ive been listening to Sarah Vaughn - ive been really diggin the Geoff Keezer record "Falling Up" as well - since Im working on my writing skills, his compositions and arrangements really go above and beyond the call of talent! Lots to practice this week too: the David Pritchard music needs to be worked on and hopefully we'll have a gig or two in the coming months. Ill try to update my website as well once I get things rolling with my schedule.
