Day 2 of My Connecticut Adventure


It is early in the morning of day two. I woke up early. I seem to wake up earlier when I take a Tylenol PM. Not sure why. You would assume that it would be the exact opposite. I went to have breakfast, because breakfast is ready at 6am. I waited about 10 minutes. The concierge was just putting breakfast out. I waited a few min, got a surprisingly healthy breakfast (usually complementary breakfasts are crap). Since I’m sure you are all interested in what my breakfast consisted of, I will tell you. I had a slice of pineapple, a slice of honeydew melon, a slice of cantaloupe, a hardboiled egg, oatmeal, and an apple for later. I have made coffee.  It is so weak it might just as well be hot water. L Guess I will have to stop for coffee on my way to training.
I will be wiggin’ it today. Lately I really have not cared if my hair looks fabulous or not (I KNOW it is a shocker) but my best friend and hairdresser was sick before I left. The brat was going to do my hair even though her DR wanted her to go in for an emergency CT scan. I thought not. She is my best friend first, and I have wigs. I would rather have her be doing my hair for years to come than just one time.
I got to my training with no issues this morning. Again, Google Maps didn’t put me on the wrong course. I don’t have great cell reception here, so it DID take a while to load Google Maps. But, it won’t be long before I can ditch the old cell carrier and port my numbers to the new one I work for J
The morning training was a get to know each other session. They are always good. I’ve decided to turn a new leaf in my life & no longer cringe when people comment about my name. This girl has been married for 13 years this August… SO I will embrace all the comments, and my name is my name, and yes, it happens to be similar to an actress.
I tracked down a sushi place that got great reviews on trip advisor. My Google Maps didn’t steer me in the wrong direction, but I did have to find a place to turn around, because I hate crossing over traffic. It was worth it. I will write a review soon. I’m not sure what I will try there tomorrow…Today I ordered one of my stand bys of California Roll, and I also ordered a Pink Lady Roll. The Pink Lady I had never had. It is spicy crabmeat, avocado, and crunch with salmon on top.  I do not have a fridge in my hotel room. I have made a make shift cooler by filling the sink with ice… so I had to eat my sushi early so it didn’t go bad. I think I’ll be eating a lot of sushi while I’m here just the same…. Maybe only ordering one roll instead of two.
After a long day of training, I have a migraine. I believe it is because of lack of sleep (and quite probably because I need to see a chiropractor & a massage therapist). We covered a lot today, and even more to come.  I think I’m going to call it an early night tonight. I was going to work out tonight, but I don’t think running or lifting is a good idea considering my head ache.
I will update more tomorrow.
