Off track?

I am not feeling so well tonight. I actually left a college basketball game early, which is pretty unheard of for me. I think I'll live; it's just a sore throat. However, my sore throat has blown two things: 1) My Eat Clean-Eat Real Food Plan, and 2) My budget.

Today I have eaten a frosty from Wendy's, a black cherry shake at the basketball game, and a chai tea latte from the student union. None of these things were necessary expenses either calorie or money-wise, but I just didn't care. I don't feel well, and I want what I want. And I don't even care that I ate what I shouldn't eat and spent money I shouldn't have spent.

I have been teaching more aerobics recently. I got up this morning and headed in to teach my fitness classes--and I didn't know if I could get through it. I just felt awful, but once I got there, I felt much better. I find that this is typical with a cold/sore throat. A little bit of exercise makes me feel better. I feel like it eases the sinus congestion for me. Then later in the day...I started feeling crappy again. Maybe working out and pushing through it wasn't a good thing in the end.

Enough about that...It's going to be a cold weekend here. I woke up this morning and let the dogs out. I noticed the thermometer on our back porch was indicating an actual temperature of -20! No wonder Murphy didn't want to go out. I can't blame him. The good news, if there is any, is that it wasn't a windy day, so it actually could have been a lot worse!
