From KT – Sept. 18, 2016

Yo DaVita !

It is Sunday morning.  Yesterday was 32 minutes of cardio, 15 minutes of meditation, and 28 sets of PT, a very robust mix.  My Range of Motion continues to improve, I drove a car for the first time in 97 days yesterday.  Just a simple drive to visit my mom, which is only 7 minutes away on quiet roads, so I did not risk having to make a sudden and significant move with my arm.  Felt amazing!

I started yesterday by working on a speech for the Colorado Women’s Foundation.  They are inviting us back after we did the same last year, which is quite unusual but we did well.  At last year’s event i/we announced our goal of having a majority of our Board of Directors be diverse (meaning female or men of color) within 2 years.  If we do so we will be in the first 2% of the entire Fortune 1000, although I need an update on that data.  We are now at 50%, so getting close.  Out of 22 Colorado Fortune 1000 companies we are one of the three that have at least 3 female directors.

Friday was a strong day for a week-day, 20 PT sets, plus the normal 25 minutes of cardio.  Zero meditation.  Friday night was a benefit for the Boys and Girls club, Saturday night was watching Stanford play USC in football (a Stanford victory) with 6 friends and a great Qdoba feast.

That is it for me. I need to get some work done, then do cardio, then head to my PT who is doing a special weekend session for me, then a meeting with JR, then off to the Bronco’s game with JR and his 2 boys, then a dinner with a medical group, after giving them a tour of our wonderful Casa.  If any of you have not visited our Casa, I hope you get to!  It is a strong physical manifestation of our Village philosophy, and our Mission and Values.

My weight was down to 192.6 today, as I am now at 11 days without dessert and 3 nights with no food after 10 pm (unless I had not had dinner).  I had hit a high of 195.4 a week ago, so this is good.

I hope you are all achieving your MTM goals!  Your Mayor, KT
