Day 34 - 331 Days to Go

Monday, Monday - So good to me (Mamas and Papas - for those too young to know)
I had a very productive and meaningful day today. After the son and Bill left around 6:45 am, I started my dailly ritual (not the bathroom one)newspaper, breakfast, treadmill, that ritual. I was on fire today - if I were keeping points (which I'm not), I'd have a million. I got the laundry done (and yes that includes put away - no sitting in the dryer hiding stuff), all three bathrooms cleaned (except for the floors), - wait that doesn't seem like alot after all. Then why did it take me all day. Well I'm staying positive and still believing I got alot accomplished - house wise.

BODY: I have over 10,000 on my pedometer before 1:00 pm today. So in between all those housey things, I also did my treadmill. I didn't take Maya for her walk until after 4:00, so those steps didn't even get counted. I figured I got my 10,000 I could take off the pedometer and get comfortable.

MIND: This morning when I woke up, I did my little "what would I change about the day before - and there was only one thing." I really shouldn't have eaten all that dim sum at lunch. I was uncomfortable all day and into this morning. This evening I had a hmmm moment. Some people may be familar with the "Taylor Swift/Kayne West" incident from the MTV music awards on Monday night. What a immature thing for West to do. Basically Taylor was an award for video of ????? and she was up there making her acceptance speech when West gets on stage and grabs the mike from her, and proceeds to tell the audience that Beyonce had an amazing video. Now kudos to Beyonce for allowing Taylor to come back on stage and make her acceptance speech again, (after Beyonce won for something else) I've always like Beyonce and her music, but I am a bigger fan of her heart now. So getting on with the story, tonight on the Jay Leno show, Kayne West, Rhianna and Jay-Z were supposed to perform. Kayne West asked to come out first and talk to Jay Leno. I felt in his own, immature and uncomfortable way, he was truly sorry. It took a big man to a) show up after all the controversy and b) apologize on tv and c) admit that he has problems and needs to take a break. Now my son, who follows Kayne West's career a little more closely than mine, wasn't sure it was from the heart. But I am going to give this man the benefit of the doubt (because I'm gullable and I can)and belive he is truly sorry. Hopefully there are lessons learned here, and his followers (not sure what they're called these days) will take something away from his lesson.

Night for now!
I am tired out from all (or not so all) housework!
