My sleep schedule righted itself for awhile there, but now it's all flipped around again. I was up all night again last night and got to sleep around 5:00 a.m. I woke up just after Dave left for work and then couldn't get back to sleep for several hours. I'm getting about 6 hours of sleep every 24 hours, but it's all broken up into pieces, which I hate.
Anyway, I got up in the afternoon, took a shower, got dressed.
Dave came home a little early because we wanted to take Saba to the vet. One of her eyes has been bothering her and we wanted to make sure that she didn't have a scratch on her cornea or anything. The vet checked her out and didn't see anything. He suggested it might be a flare up of a herpes virus that is normally dormant. I don't know how much I'm invested in that diagnosis, but at least we know that it's relatively minor.
I went to the gym tonight alone, as Dave had something else to do tonight. I say alone, but I met Judi there. I was a bit early, so I got on one of the recumbent bikes and did ten easy minutes to warm up. Tonight the trainer had us doing planks, modified Zercher squats, regular squats with rows, and lunges. I'm going to have to start being careful with my knees and not squat so low because they're hurting now and I don't want to trash them. Anyway, I did about 110 squats and 50 lunges (25 on each leg). So that's pretty good.
I came home after the gym and had a cup of yogurt and a banana. (I've been getting weird cramps in my feet, hips and back that I suspect may be related to stopping the calcium-channel blockers I had been taking, but in case they're not, I want to get some extra calcium and potassium in me.)
After my snack, I made dinner, a vegetable and tofu stir fry served over red quinoa. Dave came home soon after and we sat down to dinner.
After dinner, we went up to Sonic for some giant icy drinks. (I didn't get my usual vanilla cone because I'm trying to eat less refined sugars.)
