covenant

as i got ready for work, the eyeliner i'd just used on one of my eyes slipped from my hand and fell down the sink drain :S now it rests on the bottom of that pipe with a barrette that fell earlier this year. no wonder i'm paranoid about things falling down there. i'm going to have to get some kind of something to collect fallen items or my drain is going to get clogged quick.

my feet are freezing, but my legs aren't day 3 of long-john wearing under my work clothes. awesome :D

i did a great workout at the gym last night. i really pushed myself hard with the weights and i added a handful of arm machines to increase my upper body strength. i was pretty pleased with my rosy cheeks and my sweaty brow. i'm on the right track. woo-woo!

i had a lovely visit with mrs touw last evening. it was my first time in melissa's martial home, i liked the way photos of mark's family had popped up around the place. she was so warm and encouraging, and i love hearing about her life. she's such a gentle, kind-hearted person, and she enriches my life greatly :)

sometimes i sleep right up against the wall like i'm hugging it.

i've discovered the downside to our netbook. whenever i'm typing the fingerpad jumps to different parts and sometimes deletes whole paragraphs. that happened recently when i was emailing shanno, and i couldn't be bothered to re-type what i'd written so i just concluded the email with stories unsaid. i wish it was clever enough to recognise that if you're typing you most like want to stay where you are. the fingerpad should automatically disengage when i'm typing. so annoying!!

the only sound you hear is a closing door.

Function F7 should turn off the finger pad - which is annoying, but if you know your going to be typing for a while ...
Good for you for sticking with the work outs Les. Many people would have gotten frustrated and given up at this point. It's great that you are so committed to making your body and healthier and happier place to live!!

yeah, i was going to say the same thing. i have a function on the mac that disables the trackpad when the keyboard is in use. i also turned off the double-tap on the trackpad for similar reasons.
