This morning I went to the Silver Sneakers Fitness class at 24-hour Fitness on South Eastern, just past the corner of Sahara. I enjoyed the class, all though I think when I go next week I'm taking water with ice. As I was drinking my water (at a short break) I decided I didn't like to drinking it at room temperature. Drinking cold water winter and summer is something I picked up in my childhood, I don't like the taste of tepid water.
I got a good workout this morning and decided to come home after the class instead of going to the grocery store or the bank. I was tired, but it was a good tired because I wasn't exhausted. My mood was and still is positive despite the fact that I have financial worries. The exercise appears to decrease my depression, while causing me to feel better.
happiness increased
by an hour of exercise
a bright sunny day

Travel Tuesday: I'm staying home until this afternoon
Fiḍál (Grace), 3 ‘Alá’ (Loftiness), 170 BE - Tuesday, March 4, 2014 about 10:46 am Pacific Daylight Time
This is travel Tuesday, which means an entry about traveling somewhere. Today, the only traveling I'm planning are a couple of trips to the alley with some trash and a trip to the gym this afternoon. On Monday, I went to the bank, to pay the rent, and then to the gym. On Wednesday, I will make another trip to the gym in the morning and then to a grief counseling meeting in the afternoon. On Thursday, I plan to go to the laundromat in the morning and then to the gym in the afternoon. Friday is grocery shopping day, so I will pick up some senior food in the morning and the stop at the grocery store on my way home. I will go to the gym again on Saturday, but I'm not sure whether it will be morning or afternoon.
Those are the extent of my travel plans this week. I could complain about not being home, but since it's my choice to do these things I can't complain. The two projects I'm focusing on this week going to the gym and attempting to organize my apartment. Since I can't let these project interfere with writing 2,000 words a day, my life is full, but at least I'm not bored. Happy traveling to everyone who is getting out into the world or just traveling the Internet.

Making Changes in my life
‘Idál (Justice), 1 Ayyám-i-Há (The Days of Há), 170 BE - Wednesday, February 26, 2014 about 3:21 pm Pacific Standard Time
Two days left in February 2014 and then March begins. March the month of winds; will it come in like a lamb or a lion? I am making some drastic changes in my life and attitude. I have decided to go the the gym four days a week to work out. Right now my workout schedule is Monday and Wednesday at 1:00 am and Tuesday and Thursday at 3:00 pm.
I have two doctors appointment scheduled in March. The first is on Tuesday, March 11, at 1:00 pm and the second is on Monday, March 17, at 1:00 pm. I also have a grief counseling meeting on Wednesday, March 5. at 4:00 pm, and another on March 19 (also a Wednesday) at 4:00 pm. The other things I have to do, is go to a couple of the food banks to pick up food and do laundry, either once a week or twice a month. I don't know what the laundry schedule will be as yet because it depends on having quarters for the washers and the dryers.
My finances are going to be tight again in March, but I think this may be a continuing theme. I have to find a way to make some more money, so I need to schedule time to do paying online surveys and submit some of my stories and poems for publication. I wish I could get a part time job outside the house, but that may have to weight until I've had several gym sessions and built up my ability to walk for more then a few feet before becoming winded and tired.
Before I go to bed tonight, I'll set up my March calendar with the things I know I'll be doing. It's the unknowns that usually throw the schedule off. No matter how busy I am in March, I still have housework and writing to do, so I'll need a schedule rather then just taking thing hit or miss.

Tuesday Anternoon Thoughts
Fiḍál (Grace), 19 Mulk (Dominion), 170 BE - Tuesday, February 25, 2014 about 1:29 pm Pacific Standard Time
It's Tuesday afternoon and I spent most of the morning out of the house. I went to see the dentist about some issues I'm having with my gums. He can do something for me, but it's going to cost a good amount of money. I'm not ready to say how much yet because I have to pray about this situation. Prayer always helps me make a decision about anything I do. Prayer also helps me find the money to accomplish the goal.
After I left the dentist, I went to the gym. The last time I saw my regular doctor she said I needed to lose weight. The problem is that I won't lose weight unless I have some assistance, which is one of the reasons I went to the gym to see what they had to offer. The other reason was that I could get a free membership, which will help me lose the weight, but I'm still going to need a physical trainer.
I'm going to go back to the gym tomorrow to talk to a trainer and see how he can help me. I know what the gym I went to has to offer in equipment and stuff like that. I still have to purchase some shoes and the appropriate clothing. I also need to go to the laundromat to do some laundry. I think I'll put the dirty clothes and laundry detergent in the car before I leave the house, that way I can stop at the laundromat after I leave the gym.
