Sun 26 Jul

Going to get above 90° again today. Time to turn on the house a/c. Have run the bedroom a/c the last couple of nights already. Choir sings for Mass today for picnic Sunday. Have asked Bob to bring me lunch from the picnic at work if Mass doesn't finish in time for me to get it myself before I go. I work 12:30-5:15 today. Workout was intense yesterday with Laura. I was pretty wiped for hours afterward. Food: 7:50 am 55 g raspberry kringle, 101 g blackberries, coffee, goat milk powder

Thurs 23 Jul

Get to go in to work a bit later today, not til 9:30, though straight to Bootstrap after. Starting to feel the cumulative tired of the week already, and still have steady activity until next week Friday. Pia's dinner last night was very nice, about 20 folks, most of whom I already knew. We all talked about how we knew Pia and how she had influenced our lives. Food at Amber Grill was pretty good too. Food: 7:55 am 60 g raspberry kringle, 101 g blackberries, coffee, goat milk powder

Enjoyed visiting with James yesterday. This evening is the farewell dinner for Pia at Amber Grill.

Food: 7:55 am 58 g raspberry kringle, 101 g blackberries, coffee

James is going to stop by this afternoon for a visit. Will be nice to have some time to talk with him since he was quite spread out at the reception after the concert. I work a morning shift today, 8-12:30. Settling in to the rhythm of the week now at the store, so much quieter. Had a chance to chat with Grazzia yesterday and get to know her a bit. Food: 6:20 am 103 g raspberry kringle, 106 g blackberries, Dolce Gusto cafe au lait

Mon 20 Jul

Off to an 8 am shift today, and tomorrow as well. Other days vary from afternoon shifts to later morning times. Today should just be selling as hopefully all items are out and appropriately priced. I was able to pull up the finalized schedule on Leo's laptop and take a picture with my phone, so I believe I have the accurate hours now. I will stop bugging all and sundry to send me the schedule and just accept that this is a fairly unprofessional year. Food: 6:25 am 60 g raspberry kringle, 103 g blackberries, Dolce Gusto coffee
