Well Sweetpea, get over there and take this girl out for some good afternoon sunshine walking!!! Bell, sounds like your needing a day out, is there anyway you can get out of the house maybe go to the zoo with the family, it's outdoor, walking and it's not that expensive, or at least not here. I get depressed when it rains for more than 3 days straight! I can't stand being stuck in my house and I get the really bad blues!!
You know I think it was the weather.
Yesterday it finally cleared up and got sunny for the whole day and I felt wonderful. I did get outta the house but not outside. Went to visit a friend who owns a consignment store and helped her get ready for her sidewalk sales. She paid me in clothes for my kids. Can't beat that arrangement!!!!
I'm sure your aunt flo coming to visit isn't helping out at all. I'm sorry!!!
She showed up late yesterday. BLAH! I hate the thing. I am not having anymore kids so am of the mind to "get something done". More for the problems that I have and not so much because of having it. I found out recently that I am not "normal" in that department. At least not the way normal is suppose to be. Cycle goes 8-10 days with 3 really really hard ones in between. So hard that I usually wind up anemic every month. And it only gets worse every cycle.
As all bad things do, it soon will pass. But, I do believe since you have sweetpea so close by, that maybe you two need to plan a day trip. And maybe find something that will help motivate you in the exercises department.
She is the best!! It worked out real well that yesterday was our Master Gardner Class. So we were able to hang out and be silly while we were suppose to be learning about dirt.......ummm I mean soil. LOL
You know exercise doesn't have to be running on an elliptical or going to a gym. It could be gardening, washing your car, playing outside with the kids, or just going for a light stroll. I hope you find something that makes you smile today. I'm super happy you have your friend, I think that will help!! I'll check in on you later!! Try to find some light girlfriend today!! Don't worry about the mess in the house, it will be there tomorrow.
Kim
Kim thank you so much for all your kind words.
If this stupid weather would ever let up I would go for a walk with my little boy. ( He's 4 and lives to go outside! ) It's either raining or so humid and hot that we would pass out before we got very far!!!
I am currently attempting to teach him pre-school and it would be nice to incorporate a nature walk into what we are doing.
I'm sure it was the blah of the rainy days that did ya in - I felt the same thing! I was like man is early winter here already?
I can take a walk with ya any time you want - course you know I won't be around this coming week.
Now that the sun is back (and the humidity) we should do it early morning!
And SweetiePea you know that I will walk with you anytime.
Next week will stink when you are gone. But I know that it is for a good reason. But I'll miss you terribly.
Just to wrap up this entry I did take some vitamins on Wednesday night before I went to bed and I am sure that helped to perk me up for Thursday. What with Auntie flo coming and all I am most likely running into the anemia problem again which makes me very very tired. As well I did get up early like said I would and worked out on the beastie for 20 minutes. Tried to keep a close eye on what I ate but I did forget to eat breakfast because I was in such a hurry to get my son to daycare (he goes on Thursday's to "socialize" as we have no kids in our neighborhood).
So I stopped at the local grocery and got some of those Special K snack bars.
Had a like 3 @ 90cals each because by this time it was 10am~2.5 hours past breakfast and I was starving.
Stopped and had a D-cheeseburger from Mcd's for lunch~I know bad choice but better than a 1/4 pounder right? LOL.
And for dinner a turkey burger on a whole wheat bun with good for you cheese, 1/2 ear of corn, maybe 10-12 chips and 1/2 cup of cottage cheese.
At the Master Gardener Class they had cut up veggies for us to eat this week because we metioned last week that we really shouldn't be eating cupcakes and muffins. I thought that was so sweet that they did that for us.
So I loaded up on veggies.
Over all I think I did Ok.
And I am feeling much better today even if it did start out dreary. The sun is coming out now and Iam sure that the humidity will be kicking in soon!
Today I got up early again and worked on the elliptical for 20 minutes and then had a vanilla cappicino(sp?) from our local coffee shop.
So as far as today is going is good so far.
I hope everyone has a great weekend. As usual I won't have much time to log on but I will try to at least keep up eith everyone as best I can.
Keep the Pace!!!
Bellaryna
