Day 20 Mar 22

Monday March 22 Day 20


Last night’s dinner was excellent. Each dinner consists of rice and dahl (lentils) and some kind of vegetable dish. Last night was potatoes and cauliflower lightly spiced. This morning I tested my blood sugars and they were in the NORMAL range. This is the first time that has happened since I left Seattle. My joy is tempered with the realization that I did not do any hard training yesterday, which would effect the amounts of sugars left in the blood. I shall look forward to see what my meter says tomorrow.


Today’s morning workout is to go all the way down the hill to Hanson Field. Hanson Field is the sports field used by Woodstock and is at the lowest elevation on the school campus. That will mean that I will have the longest up hill climb. When I return in September I shall have to bring a GSP unit so I can check the elevation of the various locations. I have always been curious as to how much vertical elevation is climbed while wandering around the hillside. It is undoubtedly much less than my fevered imaginations brought on by exhaustion.


I walked down to Hanson Field and found rhoddies I want to tape on Wednesday morning. On my way back up the hill I spoke with a woman who works as a Residential “mother” for the high school girls. She had to stop just short of the getting to the top of climb. I was pleased to see that someone 30 years younger than I and who has lived on the hillside for 2 years, had to stop and get her breath. I didn't feel quite so out of shape.

About Me

My photo
I have twin sons with 2 children each. I will miss them when in India. I have been a job gypsy all my life looking for new challenges constantly. I got bored quickly except when teaching. 3 years as a Middle School Music Teacher and 9 years as an Assistant Professor of Music. I played in a Country Western Band when I went back to college at 39 to get a degree in Accounting. I was a CPA that worked in various companies, the longest for 5 years and the shortest for 2 days. I spent most of my accounting life working as a Project Accountant where I would come in to solve a particular problem. I was rarely required to do a lot of the boring stuff for very long. With the passing of my wife and NO job to go to, I can now pursue my dreams in India.
