Happy hump day!
Middle child was feeling much better yesterday. It definitely only lasts a day so hopefully even if more people get it, it will make its rounds quickly!
Today we are finally going to take Christmas stuff down. We're also planning on reorganizing the living room as well. Should be an all day project, with a more functional living space as the result!
Glad to hear people are picking themselves back up again. Life is life and while I want to constantly improve, I'm ridding myself of the stress of constantly worrying about how successful I am. There will be days that are good because I've gotten a good workout in, ate well, or stayed in my calories. There will be days that are good because I spent good time with family or friends and enjoyed some delicious treats. So long as I keep moving in the right direction overall..
Good luck everyone!0 -
Totally agree val! Today was a good day because I got several errands run with the kids and made homemade-ish chicken noodle soup that's delish! (Fresh chicken breast, frozen veggies, leftover spaghetti, veggie stock, spices and bingo!) Today's steps aren't what they ought to be, but not totally shameful either I don't think.
Mostly though, today was much less stressed and funk seems to be fading.
Unfortunately DH still hasn't bought my shoes in USA, but he still has 4 days. (Apparently there's only one good New Balance store near Bethesda/DC, without going to VA! He tried plain ole shoe stores, but no good.) Also, I found a used Garmin running/GPS watch that I'll be getting from someone on their next visit to Athens (prbly after elections next week). So by about two weeks, I'll be set with new shoes and a new watch and ready to go!
Have a good one!0 -
I've been feeling under the weather the past couple days. Yesterday just a bad headache. Left work a few hours early to get in a nap which apparently confused my cat because instead of napping with me he stood by my head and meowed repeatedly at me. Had my swim lesson and I did go last night (a) because this was the class where we learn the right technique for freestyle, which is the stroke I'm the most interested in mastering, and (b) the instructor felt so bad the week before about the fact that I was swimming laps while he worked on getting the rest of the class comfortable putting their faces in the water that I didn't want to not show up & have him think I wasn't dropping out. I don't have a way to "call in sick" for it. In the end it was a really good class and I learned a lot. Headache was better by the time I got home, but then this morning I woke up with the headache back plus feeling achy & had a low grade fever. There was a meeting at work today I had to be here for so I came in, which turned out to be good because it was a busy day and I did start feeling less miserable after lunch. I've got a seminar the next 2 days so hopefully I'm back to myself by morning. Will go home and have a quiet night. It's my rest day anyway so I don't have to feel bad about blowing off anything. 0
