Had a very long train ride this morning -- switching problems and freight-train interference added more than a half-hour to my trip. Oh well, at least the boss was late, too, for the same reason!

I found a newsletter that detailed the street-sweeping schedule. The reason I didn't get a ticket is that my street will be swept on the 9th. So even though the sign says no parking on Tuesdays, it matters which Tuesday it is. I'm going to put the schedule on my refrigerator door.

I am going into the city tomorrow for a workshop which I am helping to plan. It's been a lot of last-minute work, especially now as the attendance list keeps changing. But I'm looking forward to the sessions and to seeing other people in my field. And I get a free lunch! After the workshop, I'm going to meet some friends who work downtown for supper. That won't be free, but it will be fun.

My food challenge isn't going so great, but I will report yesterday's intake:

Breakfast - oatmeal w/brown sugar

Snack - cake (yes, I did succumb!!)

Lunch - one chicken fajita, one orange

Snack - 6 Townhouse crackers

Dinner - 1/2 cup chicken & noodles, 1/2 cup peas, 2 Grands biscuits w/butter, 6 oz. wine

I am not really dieting -- I guess I am just trying to be a little more accountable and not QUITE so piggy as I have been! Writing it down will help.
