28 days later or day 64

here's what i've done:

1. i accomplished #20 and #21 in one day-going to the pulmonolgist and cardiologist. i found out that i'm only using 71% of my lung capacity (normal is 80%) and that i have a heart murmur. i was given a sleep oxygen test that came back normal, so i don't have to worry about that again until next year. i guess that 9% isn't all that importnat. i have to get a echocardiogram to see what's up with the murmur. would've done that last week if i hadn't contracted swine flu...will makew appointment after i'm done with this blog.

2. i took part in an ILL presentation for our all staff day. in preparation for this, i was required to attend a workshop on public speaking/effective presentations. after seeing myself on video and practicing a lot, i discovered that i'm actually not a terrible public speaker. this accomplished goal #82, to become a better public speaker and enhanced the ongoing goal #33, to be more proactive at work.

3. i'm making progress on #52, growing my hair out. here's were it is as of today, about 1/3 of the way to goal #1:



and here's goal #1:


4. val and i completed the first session of water aerobics, only missing 2 classes (and for totally valid reasons). we are signed up for the summer session, which starts in june. in between, we are going to continue to meet and swim on thursdays. this helps with #3, which is to swim a couple times/month.
5. i changed my sheets last night. not doing too well on doing that as often as i should. it had probably been a month and a half. still working on #41.
6. finally, i changed my #101 goal from participating in the 365 project to completing the 5 things i'm supposed to make for people by the end of 2009. i have some of the supplies for those projects now too.
the 3 things i would like to work on now are keeping track of food, exerbycling, and making the most of P.T.
