Not much to report

I was going to put the title of the blog as "not much to say" but even when I think I don't have much to say, I still manage to ramble on for a long time.  

"Not much to report" is more accurate.  I'm still at the retreat, still eating a few things I shouldn't and drinking more than I should.  Yet, I still think I'm doing better than I have in the past at these events, so I'm focusing on that.  I will deal with the weight gain, or whatever, when I get home.  

Haven't slept well the past two night, or more accurately, haven't slept for very long.  I sleep okay, but I still wake up between 4:30 and 5:00 in the morning and can't get back to sleep.  Both mornings I have woken up with a headache, which I'm blaming on the alcohol (1 drink the first night, 2 drinks last night... I'm such a light-weight!) and not drinking enough water to counteract the alcohol.  

I have been good about drinking my water.  I had a great app on my phone (yes, another app, I'm beginning to feel like an app junkie) to remind me to drink my water and to keep track of how much water I drink.  You can also track other liquids, but it only counts water toward your goal (which you set).  I have a goal of 64 ounces during the day.  And I've hit that both days I've been here, but I don't think it's been enough.  I probably should have drank more because of the alcohol and being in the hot tub.  Still, better than I've done in the past.

my "recycled" Christmas cards

Yesterday was a very relaxing day.  I spent part of the day uninstalling programs on this computer since this laptop will just be used for digital scrapbooking (got a new laptop about a month ago and haven't moved all my photos or the scrapbooking software yet).  This laptop still works, but there were certain programs that are no longer supported on it since it has the Window Vista operating system and it occasionally locks up or takes forever to process stuff.  Hoping that by removing all the programs and games I don't use or have moved to my new computer, will keep this one working well enough that I can use it strictly for digital scrapbooking.  We'll see how long that works... 

Anyway, yesterday I removed programs from this laptop, soaked in the hot tub several times, spent time visiting with my friends, and finally did some scrapbooking... or at least, some card making.  But very simplistic card making.  I just reused old Christmas cards to create new ones.  And I took the time to do the ROMWOD (stretching video) in the late afternoon.  Was a nice break while doing the cards and after sitting for so long it felt really good to stretch out.

See... told you, even when I haven't much to report, I still mange to find plenty of say.
