So...I'm not leaving tomorrow. I'm leaving a week from Saturday. Not my fault! The other day my mom asked (out of the blue) if I wanted to stay another week. After checking with my sister and my mom's caregiver back in Oregon to see if they minded (they're watching our animals, after all), we went ahead and changed my reservation. For only $10 extra!
I'm really happy about that. I was starting to feel like I was being rushed, that I didn't have time to do everything I wanted to do. And that's true, actually. Being sick for a week really forked up my plans. Another reason I really wanted to stay is that this will be one less week my mom will be here alone.
On the negative side, the Self Challenge starts in four days. However, I'm not going to stress out. I can start it a week late and it won't really make a difference except that my info on the website will be a little off. I just didn't want to start the Challenge while I was here. We don't really have any fresh foods and I don't have access to my exercise equipment. I know I can exercise doing something outdoorsy, but I'm anal retentive and want to do things a certain way.
In the mean time, I'm getting out and doing stuff everyday. I have a lot of plans with my friend Julie (including, hopefully, another hockey game. Sadly, the Bolts aren't playing the Caps again until the end of March.), plus! Now I have time to get my film developed. I should probably go do that tomorrow.
At any rate, that's what's going on. I swear -- I'm coming home next week and this blog will resume its running-only status.
