Day 18 – Wii Fit is tiring

I told myself this morning that I was taking another day off, but I sort of got bored so I began to do stuff.  It was a high pollen day outside, so rather than walk, I decided to get on the Wii.  I hadn’t been on Wii fit for slightly more than a year.  After doing my initial body check, it said that I was unbalanced, that I had gained 12.5 pounds over the last year, and that I had the fitness of a 61 year old.  I’m 47.  Guess I’ll need to start doing this fitness thing in earnest!

Whew, Wii fit was tiring.  I made myself an egg and country potato lunch and washed the whole thing down with an entire bottle of Martinelli’s sparkling apple cider.  I was kind of sleepy after that.

I had received a call from Fidelity about my 401K plan during lunch, so I called them back.  Turns out, I would save $100 a year by rolling my 401K plan into an IRA, so that’s what I did.  The funds should be transferred (tax free!) by this time next week.  After that, I can decide if I want to convert some of my traditional IRA to a ROTH IRA.  I probably will.

The solar guy was supposed to come at 2PM to show me how to find my savings on the web, but he called to reschedule.  I was a little annoyed by this because I had purposefully not gone out to procure some things so that I would be home when he arrived.  Now I’ll have to be home tomorrow at Noon for him as well.

When my son got home, we watched Police Academy together.  I then practiced for tonight’s band rehearsal… and then went.

I almost drove my car off the road on the way home.  I decided to use a route that I rarely take.  As I was getting up to speed on the onramp, I came to realize that there were two corners to navigate, not one, and that second one really surprised me!  I guess I should have had my high beams on!  In my Honda, this is not an issue – I’d still be gaining momentum even after I got onto the freeway – but with the Porsche, I was up to 70 at the second curve!  Yikes!  Good thing those tires are sticky.  I got slammed into the door, but the car didn’t budge an inch – it kept its line.  This car is amazing

Day 18 mood:  I’m in a funk.  I want to do something significant, but I’m not quite ready yet to actually start.
