Iced coffee is preserving me this morning.
Well, mid week is so full for me with work that exercise is scarce. I did go for a solid mile + walk at lunch yesterday, and ate mostly healthy except for the ice cream after dinner (which I split with M).
Hope to go swim laps again tonight or tomorrow night. And maybe a bike ride this weekend.

I'm really hoping for a nap this afternoon and a solo trip to the grocery store.

I'm currently allowing myself a long lunch. Because hot. And tired. It's 91 degrees F outside.
And planning my new business - Artisanal American Cheese.

I just registered for a 1/2 marathon in Sept so it looks like I'll be doing a lot of running.

Yesterday I went up to the roof and did a little seated yoga session with an app on my phone (it's meant to be desk yoga but DNW to look that silly at my cubicle among all my office mates). Followed with a 5 minute meditation, and it was glorious. I did it at the end of the day and I am planning to do it again today, to release the day's tension before heading home.

I ordered my groceries using the Clicklist process. 4.95 and I don't need to do anything.
My first order was free and it looks like they have a free item each week.
I'm going to see if I can stick with it and not buy extras. I always overspend on things I don't really need when walking through the store.

I'm making brownies. Does that count as self-preservation?

I'm going to see if I can stick with it and not buy extras. I always overspend on things I don't really need when walking through the store. We love click list. We discovered it when I went on bed rest, and it was wonderful. I could pick things it on my phone or tablet (I couldn't put a laptop on my actual lap at that point) and h could pick it up. We had what I wanted even if I couldn't go get it. We use it all the time now just so we don't have to take our circus out. |

MIL had foot surgery so she's off work for the next month. She had an appointment here in town today so she asked if she could come and get the kids for a couple more nights. How can I pass that up? Originally DH and I were going to spend the day together tomorrow, but now he has to work, so I'm thinking I'll spend the morning picking blackberries and cleaning the chicken coop, and then I'll spend the afternoon sewing.

I went out on a limb and went to a new playgroup with a homeschooling group. The leader lives on acreage not far from me and we hit it off. Not to be cheesy but it was an answered prayer.

I've been meeting my goal of 8k steps a day, and have been mostly staying hydrated. I forgot to do my push-ups and sit-ups yesterday though.
Yesterday I met some newish friends (baseball moms) for supper and margaritas. It was glorious. No kids, margaritas, and I actually really like these ladies.

So after talking my plans for today over with DH, we determined that I needed to spend the morning mowing the lawn at the rent house and Grandpa's back yard. After I got done with that I came home and mowed our's. As I was finishing up one of our neighbors stopped on her way by just to tell me that I am an inspiration because I take on so much responsibility and handle it with grace. Thank you neighbor, for the huge compliment!

I went out to lunch today with the boys, MIL, and a couple she knows from Florida who live here in summer.
I had a delicious avocado blt on brioche and a glass of Pinot Grigio. We sat outside on the deck under a fan. T slept the whole time and R was a perfect gentleman. It was glorious.

I'm sitting alone in an arboretum at dusk feeling the breeze. I could fall asleep. Also why can't my property look like this?

We were planning on going to the county fair with my parents today in Delaware, but with the horrible heat and humidity, we decided it was best to not go. Instead of canceling my day off and going to work, I took a mental health day and used the day to relax and sleep time with J and Nugget. We drove out to our old neighborhood and had lunch at our favorite brewery and then took Nugget to a play cafe nearby and she had a blast playing. Then we came home and installed the doggy door on our back porch and relaxed. I needed the day to recharge, especially since my parents are back tomorrow morning and
We'll have a busy weekend.
