On the way to Mt Ida for Andy’s graduation from middle school.
Justen decided for the last half of the drive that he wanted to listen to his League of Legends podcast.
I’ve never wanted headphones more than I do right now.
This shit is so stupid and grating and I kind of want to jump out of the car.
I’m trapped and feeling really claustrophobic.
Halp!
It’s hard not to take it serious when I get a text like this from my mister.
The ‘threat’ has passed Rogers and all is well with Banky and I.
Justen is at work which seems to be par for the course when it comes to severe/scary weather.
I was at work all day so I’ve only just heard about the devastation that’s taken place in Oklahoma today.
So sad. So scary. Stay safe.
Have loved this forever since it was featured on Regretsy a few years ago.
Since I can’t have it (and they aren’t making duplicates or a pattern for it) maybe I should consider commissioning a painting.. I mean, I just really feel like my home needs some House.
Just couldn’t shake the craving.. so this small Butter Pecan Concrete is happening right now.
I’ve been spending a lot more time with my treadmill now that I have some free time on my hands. Pretty happy about it. It’s been a long time since I’ve run on a regular basis. Well, to be honest, there’s a lot more walking involved right now than running.
I’ve gone back to my trusty C25k app, since it’s a slow and steady buildup. Of course, the plan is for every other day, but my rest days have the tendency to last for months… so I’ve been doing it daily.
I would like to add in some weight training as well. However, I don’t have any weights. I might just do body weight stuff (push ups, squats, lunges, etc.) until I decide what I want as far as a weight set goes.
I have given Justen the mission of asking one of our friends if he would like to store his Bowflex at our house instead of his garage.. cuz I mean, it’s just taking up valuable space in a garage and we have plenty of space for it in the treadmill room..
So Riot Fest is a legit reason to miss class, right? I mean, look at that line up. Dying. <3
The joys of being a girl during that special time of the month.
And the emotional mine field her husband gets to navigate.
Before & After.
I love having a treadmill at home so I can run in whatever ridiculousness I want/is most comfortable and I don’t have to feel self-conscious.
2 miles.
Also: I cut all my hair off.
My best friend and I have been texting what we eat to each other for a few weeks. I haven’t been calorie counting or tracking, really. But it does make me think about what I’m eating since I know I’m going to have to ‘admit’ it to someone. She’s not going to [verbally] beat me up if I tell her that I had two(!!) of the donuts they brought into work BUT when I’m whining about how I haven’t lost any weight she might remind me about them.. and the pizza.. and the pretzels with Nutella.. and so on and so forth. Or I could just scroll up and remind myself. It’s nice.
She and I have always been somewhat competitive with each other, so we are using it to our advantage. [She’s totally winning right now though, if you were wondering.]
So far today I’ve had a protein shake (1 scoop chocolate whey protein powder, 1 c milk, 1 Tbs flax seed, 1 Tbs PB2, 1 banana.) 2 cups of coffee with milk. 4 pieces of sour Jolly Rancher gummy candy. Today is going a lot better than the last week or so.
This has been a post. I’m going to try and do that more often.
