Still Raining

Wake up: 6:30 am
Slept for: 7 hours
First thought is: I have so much to do to get Scarlett prepared for camp. Why didn't I sort it all out last night? Followed by a flood of thoughts related to starting something new, wondering if she'll get on with the other kids, wanting her to be accepted and thrive, wanting this experience and everyone to be positive for her.
Baby is: Going to the doctor today. My fear of shots and their possible repercussions ensues.
This is: Nerve-wracking—believe me, I do a lot of research on the autism subject for THE FAMILY GROOVE and everyone has something different to say.
Daughter is: Excited about her first day of camp.
This is: Fun for me, as I imagine her perception of these, the very first of her salad days.
Man is: A rock.
This is: Concerning from time to time, as I wonder if he ever gets tired of being so responsible and hard working.
Emails to check: 58
Goal for the day: Contain my agita—but first figure out why I have it.
Kabbalah says: "Mistakes are opportunities. Every time we mess up — intentionally or not - there is a chance to learn and go to a new level. In fact, mistakes are only mistakes if we don't learn from them.

Today, forgive yourself for something you've done in the past. Remember, when you fall, you learn."
Arrive at gym: Too much to do in the morning. Have to go at night. Never made it at night. Two glass of red wine equals focus and drive out the window. Drinking is bad.
Weight is: Much.
Weight to lose: Much.
Workout is: Nada surf.
Today's song is: Still Raining by Jonny Lang
Best lyric is: Sometimes I wonder what'll become of me
There ain't much left of what I used to be
Best spam subject line: My number 73
I want: Multiple clones
I love: Post-modern Americana, just as the sun hits it.
I wish: It were 1970.
I am totally, majorly obsessing over: Short shorts and knee socks with stripes
Being a mom means: Running about like a crazy woman
Being a wife means: Working out to have a body that can wear those short shorts
Being a business owner means: Not scaring easily
Out of the mouths of babes: The boys were annoying.
Today I ate: No breakfast, portabello mushroom, spinach, tomatoes and zucchini for lunch, chicken and vegetables for dinner. Oh, and fat free, sugar free yogurt mid-day.
Today I drank: Water and two big glasses of red wine.
Work was: Less productive than usual.
I learned today: Accomplishment takes focus.
I am: Writing this on Tuesday because I fell asleep, fully clothed, at 9 last night.
Tomorrow I will: Get with the program.
