• Thank you God for more free movie tickets in July.

THOUGHTS:

• I was able to fix one of the DVD players, just by taking it apart and cleaning it and reassembling.  I did that with both DVD players, but only one of the DVD players works.  The other one isn't reading the DVDs.  I have another idea, but maybe I'll try another day.  I have a thing that's cleans the lens, but I might make my own thing to clean it.  
• Started my work late and didn't think I would be able to finish today, but I did.
• Thankful for my sister letting me know about more free movies to Harkins.  This time I got 4, but I thought they were for next week, but it turns out the end of July, right before school starts.  That's fine.

Notes:  I liked this workout, but it wasn't as hard as I thought.  I did all the exercises as she said and I used my GymBoss timer, as sometimes she talks and takes more time in between.  The timer helps keep me on track.  Also I did the tornado sit ups and didn't feel nauseated.  Praise God!  I think working on the trigger points over the past 5-7 weeks have really helped in my lower back to reduce and/or eliminate the nausea.  Will be testing this out more.
