Monday

-Despite turning the clock forward an hour on Sunday, somehow I woke up before 8 a.m. I don't regularly get up at this time.

-I wrote almost 1800 words in preparation for today's taping. A significant percentage of those words were summarily cut for TV. (The full pieces will hit my other blog, for what it's worth.)

-I wasn't feeling the exercise routine tonight but pushed through it to do 4.5 miles in an hour. Hooray for me.

-With all I accomplished today, I feel like I'm so behind in preparations for getting out of town.
