Fluency Journal #8 (07/03/2014)

Well, I finally got to work today. And I couldn't have asked for a nicer day to be working outdoors. Clear skies and 80 degrees. Not too shabby. I got a lot done: three yards mowed, the heifers pregnant checked and separated, and even got some fence repaired. Needless to say, my shoulders are pretty red now. And I get to do it all again tomorrow. I can't complain, though; it's money in the bank. 

     I even managed to find time to go to the gym for an hour or so. I ran a couple miles while I was there. Anyone who knows me knows I'm not much of a runner. I just quit smoking cigarettes a few months ago and I suppose I thought my lungs were back in working order, but apparently I was wrong. I literally thought I was going to pass out. I'm going to have to start incorporating more cardio into my workout to get my lungs functioning again. 

     Anyway, I guess all my studying and hard work paid off because I did a little better than what I thought I was going to do on my algebra test. I was honestly expecting a B, but I was lucky enough to receive an A, so go me! It just goes to show you that hard work and dedication can get you just about anywhere. It's definitely good for the old ego. 

     I haven't done much else today. I suppose it's time to buckle down and work on this reflection. I have all of my homework done for my other classes so now I'm able to devote all of my attention to the Writer's Workbench essay. Adios. Hasta mañana.
