Brrr...feels like the Fall has finally arrived.  I am freezing!  Lots of prayers have been said over the last 2 days for family, friends, and strangers who were affected by hurricane Sandy.  It's heartbreaking to me to see the devastation on TV, I can't imagine how those who are there are feeling.

It's Sale week at Quoizel!  Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of this week we have our big warehouse sale.  It is a BLAST!  Our employees have been working on this for months!  The time leading up to this is stressful for many...so look forward to the end of it, but me...I love it!  It's great to have the public come into our warehouse and shop like crazy for lamps.  It's fun to watch our shoppers come in and start shopping like crazy.  I definitely comparable to Black Friday.

My diet has been off this past weekend.  Because of all of the performances Joe had to do  my prep and planning was way off.  He normally does a Friday and Saturday show...this time he did over 10.  This is not something we are used to at all. We were eating out too much.  It always feels good to get back on track...except when I have to workout.  Today's workout was not pretty.  It was a good workout and I was sort of excited to do it...it seemed simple enough but my gosh was it tough for me today.  My excuses for not doing well today:

• Did not sleep well at all last night
• Was nauseous during the workout
• Kind of lite headed
• was worried sick about my family and very distracted
• barely drank any water before hand
• Ate too close to the workout
• It was chilly.

The one thing that got me more than anything else was that I became winded so quickly and I felt a heaviness on my chest.  I thought it was odd, I was wondering if it had something to do with the cold air.  Well. that's it for my excuses.  What kills me is that I should have been able to complete this workout so I am going to jot it down and try it again within the next couple of weeks.

I feel a little bit better this evening.  I'm hoping I sleep well tonight and will feel like a new person in the morning.  We have a busy week and weekend ahead, I can't get sick and I feel something coming on.
That's all I have for now...Still praying for many!
