Day 3/ Week 1

I had a good day today food & fluid wise but not so good emotionally.

I had a lamb that I have been trying to "make better" for the past 4 weeks and this morning I found her in respiratory distress and had to euthanize her.    That is the part of farming that I really, really don't like.
I will move on because I know there was nothing I could do and doing what I did, did her a favor.  She is no longer suffering

So, after saying that, the rest of the day went much better and I buried myself in paperwork... which meant I sat at a desk a good part of the day.  Good that I got lots done but not so good that I didn't move much.  I didn't make my 10,000 steps today even though lately I have been averaging 12,500 steps in a day.  I will make it up tomorrow as I have a bunch of barn work to do.

I am proud of myself cause I got informed that we were "eating out" at lunch.  I had my lunch already prepared and took it with me.  I ate mine while others ordered and ate theirs.  It was at a fast food/gas station so no one pays attention that you aren't ordering or eating what they have there.

Tomorrow is WI day for me.  I am actually excited about it.  I will let you know how it went tomorrow evening... if your lucky maybe even  sooner :)
