Flowin' Free Ain't So Easy

Well, the day after my birthday, my boss "let me go" because of money issues in the company. What a birthday gift. I've been readjusting to the new schedule, trying to reshape how the day/week/life will go...again. I wonder if it will be my lot in life to adapt to constant change. Seems that way at this point. After a flurry of applying to schools to substitute teach, I have been catching up on housework, writing letters, and watching Modern Family, Cougar Town, and The Good Wife.
I am realizing that I had gotten used to squeezing in exercise between running from one job to another, and had pretty much absented myself from helping out in the kitchen. Before I had this job, I had the luxury of focusing totally on exercise and contemplation. Now, with the lack of schedule, I am having to relearn the discipline of moving every day in some significant way. Its so cold, I don't want to go outside, or get the wii fit out with everybody lounging in the living room.
Excuses.
I need a reboot.
Too much sugar.
Too many doughnut holes, blueberry crunch sugar cookies (my sister in law is a master and a demon at baking amazing things I don't even want to resist)

and now?
Chocolate lasagna.

Must....make....some brussel sprouts.
