Today was a busy Monday at work. I grocery shop for my week on Monday mornings and today I just couldn't catch up. It was soup for lunch today which went nicely with our new 2 inches of snow (which came and melted all in the same day...such weird weather!). It's suppose to get progressively warmer for the rest of the week, so I'm looking forward to that.
After my long run yesterday, I've gotten a little worried about my left foot. I'm sure I mentioned a few weeks ago it was bugging me a bit, and up until now it hasn't been bad. It hurt after the run yesterday and hurts today. I'm going to baby it for the week and lay off the miles to see if I can get it better. Looks like a lot of biking is in my immediate future. I'm staying optimistic though that a little rest will put me back on track.
As for my weigh-in tonight...thumbs down. I didn't lose anything BUT I did lift weights tonight right before I weighed in, and I've been told you shouldn't workout and then weigh yourself. I'm sticking with that reasoning and will hope for better results next week. Looks like I need to cram in some more fruits and veggies this week, just in case.
For his birthday this year, Tim got a Magic Bullet and it's become one of my new favorite things in the kitchen. I've been using it to make smoothies for myself and it's so nice because you put all of the ingredients in one cup and then it gets blended right in the same cup. Amazing!
This isn't the Magic Bullet cup, but I had to try and make my smoothie look beautiful for you all. Frozen strawberries, fresh raspberries, and a little banana. I don't measure anything, so I'll see if I can't find a good basic smoothie recipe to share with you all.
Time for bed. Aidyn has a field trip for school tomorrow and I'm going to try and finish up with work a little early so I can meet them there. Some kind of a storyteller, I'm not even sure what it's all about. I do know that we have our pretty dress, a necklace, two headbands, three rings, a whistle (I don't know), 4 back up dresses in case the first gets dirty, jammies in case all 5 dresses get dirty, and a raincoat in case it rains. We like to be prepared.
Night all!
Poor foot! Hopefully rest and biking can help it out!
ReplyDeleteAidyn really cracks me up! A girl's gotta be prepared you know! :) With all that bling she might need the whistle to signal for help in case of attack! It makes perfect sense!
I might venture outside for a run today! Even though it's 20 right now, I just feel like running!
