OIY....Can't Sleep!

I've waken (woken?) up several times during the night, finally noises (again) woke me up at 2 and I couldn't go back to sleep. I am a "light" sleeper, I don't know if that's a curse or a blessing.

Husband left at 3:00-ish a.m., I locked up, made some coffee and here I am.

I heard the weather man say that it was going to be about 10 degrees cooler, we shall see:)

Son and I plan to go to my favorite church this morning. I haven't gone since Nov., when I hurt my back, I had to stop going, it's a long walk, and there are'nt any nearby buses in the area.  I think, hopefully, fingers crossed, that I am ready to walk there today. If I could walk to FoodTown, I'm sure I can do this, I think it's about the same distance, only the opposite direction.

Today I'm giving my upper body a rest, the walk will be my workout.

I woke up hungry today, at 4:30 a.m., I will shower, and then have something to eat while I put some makeup on.

Wish me luck, self:D

I will post later and share whether it was a success or an ordeal:)

Well, I am happy to say, that the walk was successful! YAY! :D

And what surprised me was that the distance was even less than what I've been walking lately, 1.58 miles. Isn't that something?  All this time I thought that this would be my longest walk yet. Wow!  This means that I will be able to go weekly again:)

It's been a real struggle food-wise, though, I have been a bottomless pit all day. I guess sleep deprivation is the reason.  But, I'm hanging in there, just nibbling on little things like pickles, and sugar free gelatin in between meals.

In other news: I am really enjoying my book, "A Stranger is Watching" it is a real page turner. I am so glad that I don't remember it.

Well, I'm hoping to walk again tomorrow, and maybe an upper body workout to boot.

I will write my total in later on.
