Hey y’all…it’s official…either I’m getting old, or the BTD has gotten me so healthy that I can’t successfully mistreat my body anymore. I went out to a club last night to see my friend’s band and only had part of one shot (bought for me by someone else). The only other thing I had to drink was a glass of very sugary lemonade (non-alcoholic). I got to bed late (3 am) and woke up at 8:30 (why, oh, why can’t I sleep ‘til 10 even!) with a grouchy tummy and a general hang-over kind of out of it feeling. This is very depressing news. I know it’s from the bit of alcohol, sugar and lack of sleep…but it’s nice to be able to go out once and a while…the problem being that I can’t afford to be lazy the whole (or even part) of the next day. Ah well, more examples of growing up and supposed maturity…

The other bothersome fact is that I’m completely bloated and gross this morning. My belly and hips for sure, and even my face a bit. It’s so ugly feeling! And I have a date tonight!! The plan for today is to take an extra long, if easy, swim (in the bright sunshine, yay!), take mini-naps if I need them and get as much homework done before tonight as possible. You can bet the farm that I won’t be enjoying wine with dinner, either…it’ll be water or green tea for me all the way! I’ll also load up on extra superfood to try and cleanse my system a bit.

That’s it for me for today. Be well and stay smiling…
