Golden Girl

It's a gorgeous, cool sunny morning here in Florida. It's been a hot week on many levels though.

This week - and I don't really want to talk about it - it's come to pass that our go live date is in jeopardy again. In fact, I think it's no longer viable myself. Not my or my team's fault at all (yet again) but it is what it is. We worked 12-16 hour days all week - I couldn't even go to the gym but at least made it to dance class. In the middle of class, I had a huge catharisis and almost fell asleep in the middle of a vibrational shimmy ;-) I'm actually serious when I say that.

Yesterday morning I accomplished something quite good and positive - I did the 5K Race for the Cure (since it's breast cancer month). It was a great experience and felt wonderful to be a part of something that is so good for you as an individual and as a citizen of the world. I really loved it though I managed to feel my age. I should have ran more of it than I did because for some reason, running is easier on my particular injury than walking is. So I overcompensated when walking (power walking, incidentally, not strolling about) and now I am whinging that I'll need a hip replacement. It's actually my back I think and not my hip, which is just lovely. I think it's a good time to go to a massage therapist. Or maybe I'll just get a pedi :-) I'm surprised how much I liked running. I used to hate it - and technically it's not the most comfortable given my erm..assets but I definitely felt better physically running than walking.

Then last night we had our big dinner at California Grill. It was awesome, we saw the sun set and then the fireworks and the night was just perfect for weather. Cali Grill is allegedly one of the best restaurants in Florida and it's very good but I think it's overrated. You can't beat the view though, that's for sure.

OK, it really is Clean The House You Lazy Arse Procrastinator day. At least until I need a nap ;-)

Next week looks to be nearly as mental so I don't expect to be updating too much.
