Day 4 of 5-5-5

   Once a month I lead Zumba Gold at a neighboring nursing home and it's always a mystery about folk's mood and participation each time, and today they definitely did the arm movements.  It's always done sitting in regular or wheelchairs, but we do leg positions anyway.  One client took the hand of another participant who mainly sat there and swung it gently in perfect rhythm.  Soon both were smiling.  Dance is wonderous!

   This was fun to do, took a cooler of food to my husband while he "baby sat" the art gallery, his once a month turn.  Took large salad with greens, avacado, onion, tomato; last night's soup of squash, carrots, tomatoes, onions, garlic; salt; home made salad dressing; herbal tea.  It was a feast!  Really enjoyed tonight's meal of zuchini, tomatoes, onions, basil, celery leaves, olive oil, salt and pepper.  The sweet potato/carrot fries were excellent as always. 

   And, another plus during the day was to purchase a Danskin top at Wal*Mart for exercise.  They were out of 12-14 large, so...on a whim I purchased 8-10 and....it fits!!!!!!!

   Our son has begun some sort of techy job with AT&T and is in a probation period.  While he was training for a month in Dallas, the mother of our granddaughter totaled his car swerving to miss a dog.  He is 45 miles away from his work check in point.....  Once a week we have been driving to pick him up to go to work and, when he calls that it is finished, pick him up to take him home (36 miles from our home to his).  He is about ready to purchase another vehicle and this will simplify life since we don't know when his day will be completed.  He has watched FSND and is inheriting our Jack LaLanne juicer to start on it when he is ready.

And so, Day 4 of 5-5-5 Reboot well completed.  Weight is down just a tad from where I ended up on the first 5-5-5 go-round.  This is encouraging!  I'm actually eager for the 5 days of pure juicing....
