Get ready for this to get difficult

It's hot here.  There will be a seven-day heat wave.  Right in the middle of it I'll be attending my first sheep sale.  Mental note: include some swimming this week.  Also, pack a hat.

Resolution: Getting my shyte together for a multiple-stop run of errands on the hottest day of the year, including my gym gear: +1.

Refusal: something spectacular from The Donut King, twice (while walking to and from the gym… and if I had the blood sugar right now I’d make a joke about that): +1.

Rediscovery: I returned to my home gym after a six-month absence.  I’d forgotten how pretty it was.  With a 700-km drive tomorrow I don’t want to weary myself, so rather than attend the Pump class that I got myself there in time for I re-acquainted myself with the weights machines and pretended to spend some time on the elliptical: +1.
