Today’s task:
Spend an hour catching up on your reading.
Now. I’m not going to put any rules around what kind of reading this is. (I personally am going to finish up Women, Food and God ahead of tomorrow’s book club discussion!) It can be a book. Some magazines. Articles on the internet. But we all seem to have things we’ve filed away because w…[Read more]

Sorry you had a stressful day. Hugs.
Question: How have you been feeling physically? Like…your body?

If a task proves stressful instead of relaxing, don’t do it!
Remember the main thing with this challenge is trying + holding yourself accountable.

After the recycling truck came, I went out and picked up all the things that had blown away up and down my street.

Today’s task is:
Do a random act of kindness.
I chose this one because doing something good for others is good for the soul. It reminds you that the world is bigger than your problems and challenges, and there’s also the “sneaky” element to it that can be a lot of fun.Just as a reminder, a RANDOM act of kindness is not the same thing as a…[Read more]

I just did that a few months back with a ton of books I bought when my daughter decided to be vegetarian. Which lasted all of a month, lol.

I think that totally counts, especially if you felt better after it was done!

I’m sitting at the computer decluttering my email inbox. I usually check my email on my phone and my inbox on the computer is so full that I can’t receive emails on it any longer. I’m currently to the point that I’m starting to get June’s emails (it started with May’s) and I’m not stopping until I’m up to today’s!

Amazingly, for once, I am not inundated with a bunch of weeknight meetings! I am going to schedule book club because we are due to have one but besides that my evenings are looking pretty clear. This makes me happy. I was at a point where I worked all day and had 2-3 meetings per night. That was making me quite grumpy!
This week’s dinners will be…[Read more]

I hope you figure this stomach thing out! I know you’ll let us know how you’re progressing and I appreciate that. 🙂

Sounds yummy! We are doing “make your own take out” night on Tuesday, I think. My oldest makes awesome oven fries (I’m going to make myself spicy sweet potato fries) and we are going to make cheesesteak subs. I have a good hack for that, by the way. I buy a big tub of the thinly sliced deli roast beef and fry that up with onions and green peppers.…[Read more]

You are busy lady!
You mentioned wanting non-egg savory breakfasts. Are you able to do tortillas? I make an awesome high-fiber breakfast burrito. I make about 8 of them in the oven at once (because the family always pillages!). You can omit eggs and just do sausage crumbles, veggies and cheese. If you’re interested, I can post my recipe.

I hope your hectic work week goes well! Good of your hubby to take some stuff off your hands.
I’m going to give the lemon bars another go this week making them how *I* would make them (so my fave crumb crust and just how I generally know how to make a custard). I’m gonna feature them on the blog (as a recipe semi-fail/recovery story) but I’ll…[Read more]

I’m so sorry you’ve been feeling queasy. I hope you get to the bottom of it!
I did not sleep well last night at all. Sigh. My surgeon said this will increase in frequency until I get my right half reconstructed. I’m not in pain. I just can’t lay down comfortably. Luckily I’m pretty much a ball of pure energy so I’m not tired but…I don’t know…[Read more]

I’m actually pretty excited about this one and have been sort of “prepping” for it.
Today you’re going to:
Declutter something in your life!
Could be your junk drawer. Could be your purse or wallet. Just get that clutter OUT!For my part, I’m going to do some decluttering of my office. I called bulk trash to come get my ages old…[Read more]

Today starts my  “figure out what the heck is going” week(s). I’m on water-based protein shakes until I can get something down without feeling queasy and my system settles down. So meals are easy. Premier protein waters and Synthrax Nectar shakes.
As far as getting my steps in, I have somehow managed to get myself into 5 fitbit challenges, so I…[Read more]

I usually go for the scented wax melts so I bought myself some new ones and opted to use the pretty wax melter from my daughter.Â
