Off on a Monday

Yesterday was the first day of my "weekend", my two days off after working my usual six-day week. I ran errands, bought a new programmable coffee maker, ate at Chick-Fil-A (their new dipping sauce is terrible!), watched The Shield, and took a nap.

About 4:00 pm, Ingrid called and bitched to me about Manny not understanding that she needs to get off early on Monday's, something that I had previously authorized . The other girl had called out, so she couldn't leave unless someone else was there. I listened to her, told her I was on her side, but when I am off Manny is in charge, and she really needs to talk to him about it. She said she would call him and also call the 3rd shift person to see if they could come in early. I think she just needed to let me know about it (hopefully). No calls since, which means it was more than likely handled in some positive way. It concerned me a little at the time, but I am learning not to let it stress me out or worry about it more than is needed. I am off, Manny is in charge. I need to let him handle it. I'm learning.

Did Legs yesterday. Did my 4 sets of squats, felt good with that. Will up the weight next week. Went to 15 lbs on my walking lunges; could totally feel it! Am slowly increasing weight on all leg exercises. I'm not sore today, so I think my legs are getting used to a frequent schedule. Leg soreness sucks! Did 30 min cardio, treadmill walk level 7 on hill repeats. Moderately hard, felt good. Had Adam's lasagna for dinner. Not a great nutrition day, but it's my day off. Gonna try to do Yoga today.

Practiced drums for about an hour. Consistency is the key to improvement. Moved up a level on hard. Failed at one song, sucked on Indestructible chorus, but still felt strong overall. The best thing about these video games that it objectively shows improvement. The better I get, the more I move up the levels, the higher percentage I get on the song, the more points I get. All awesome metrics. I'll practice more today.
