The absolute hardest thing today was the bike ride to work. OMG I was almost crying, how out of shape can you be after only three weeks?! But first, before you make any judgements let me tell you this: all the way from my place to where I work is a slight uphill ride, sometimes even (for a few more weeks in my mind) a STEEP uphill ride!! Today I was fighting this also against the wind. Another thing is that I had to do this for about 35 min! I amas close to being a hero/saint/icon as anyone else who performed heroic deeds like this one! Well anyway.. When I got to one of the steep his I passed a person also on a bike, was proud. Next hill I was almost crying and the same person passed me and just carried on like the world wasn't about to go under?! How rude!! When I got to work I noticed that I was biking with the wrong gear.... Well, eh.., good training. Will be better tomorrow then.
Another thing that has happen is close to a miracle. My plants are alive after three weeks if starvation! I'm greatful! I was prepared for the worst! But my trick worked an upside down pet to drown the poor bastards! One is not doing so very well... But so far it's alive still.
I came home to Switzerland yesterday, I was a bit hungry I must admit. And since I couldn't remember what I had at home in terms of food, my mind just made things up, telling me that I could do grocery shopping like today instead. Well... I found cocholate, Ice cream, some herring and some hard bread. Eventually I realized that I had some eggs as well. Not the most exciting dinner I've ever had.... Specially not after a Holliday like Christmas and New Years.
Well... After a Holliday like Christmas and New Years I would need some holding back anyway... So here I am. Back at work, long hours, healthy food, exercising, more sun, longer days, close to the ski slopes, soon a trip booked to Prague. Life's tough.
