Week in Review

Climbed a mountain with my sister on Sunday. We had SUCH a good time but then I got shaky and sick on the way home. It took two bowls of miso soup for me to recover enough to finish the journey home.
Work was work. I had a goal of writing another five decisions and don't even remember if I made it. I think I did. We had a sushi day on Thursday and I ate too fast, so fast that I couldn't bare the thought of eathing anything but sushi for the rest of the day.

Thursday, I worked out for the first time since the mountain climb on Sunday. I had a long, tough, soothing spin class that melted away all resistence.
Friday, after work, me and my girls went sample sale shopping. This involves an adventure where the three of us pile into E's car and, instead of going home, we follow aprinted-out map and my iphone google maps all the way to a warehouse. Inside, we find top quality clothing discounted by 50% or 75%. I found a pinstrip pencil skirt with a buttery soft lining for 1/3 of its regular price. It's perfect for my practice and I felt so powerful and sophisticated in it!

All week, Monster and I have been watching the third season of "Dexter". We are both enjoying it so much, it's like watching a great movie in small installments.
Today, Saturday, I worked on an article I'm writing for an NGO I've been volunteering with since last summer. I finished it, did laundry, cleaned and straightened a bit, organized my summer clothes and brought some jeans (sample sale finds) to the tailor to be hemmed and taken in.

I also watched three Meryl Streep movies from the '80s and '90s ("A Cry in the Dark", "Sophie's Choice" and "Postcards from the Edge.")
