This weekend was HIGHLY productive, migraine and all. Thank goodness the migraine didn't actually hinder the weekend. Heh. Yes, it hindered Monday, which means it was a very unexpected 3 day weekend...although for most people that was normal, what with Dr. King's Day and all.
The house is clean. I should actually re-phrase that- almost all of the house is clean. I still have the kitchen to tackle and some more laundry to finish. But the living area is as clean and organized as it can get currently. I am still on the search for a new apartment or house to rent, so if you know of any, give me a shout out!
I started K's birthday present, which means I'm not working on my sweater, but these socks are darn tootin' good lookin'. They also feel good in my hands when I squish them. I think he will be pleased. I need to get back to taking pictures for ya'll.
As far as this crazy eating/exercise is, it's well, actually. Saturday was very hard, and I believe it is because I didn't eat enough prior to the class. I felt weak. I think it's a MUST to get up at 8am now on that day and have breakfast. Class is at 11am, and I got up at 10am, and had a protein shake. I think my body needed way more fuel than that. Eating was hard over the weekend, but I spent the time to cook and prep a few days worth of protein and am satisfied to say that yesterday and today was fairly painless. I have found some good, well rounded foods that are working for me- including Raw Goat Milk Cheddar, Toby's Tofu dip, Chipolte Salsa, Smoked Salmon, Broiled Lean Top Sirloin, Turkey Breast, Chicken Sausage, hard boiled eggs, hummus, low carb tortillas and Turkey Meatballs. Throw in some spinach, kale, celery, radish and cucumber- and you pretty much have my meals. I am now searching for an "almost all meat" low-carb turkey chili. Again, if you know of any, give me a shout out! I didn't go to class last night (migraine) but on Tuesdays I will go to two in a row (yes, obviously I am TRYING to kill myself), so I don't feel half as bad as I should.
The cat is still having problems with bed time. I think it might be time to get a hard-hitting spray bottle. Sigh. She FRAP's way too much now that K is gone. (I once saw Alicia refer to the crazy manic way the pets tear around the house in the evening, and it's not left my mind- but I can't for the life of me remember what it means: Frenetic...Rampage...Around..Premise or something like that- but I it made K and I laugh and laugh, so now it's what we call Stellas nutty rampages- jumping around on the furniture, bouncing off the walls, fur all out on her little body- it would be funny if it didn't happen at 12am...)
Speaking of which, K is now in San Antonio from San Diego, and tomorrow heads to St. Louis (Brrrrr). From there it's Tampa, and possibly PA. We'll see how it goes. It's been a week and two days since he departed, and Stells and I miss him. He's having a ball being out in the world again and being at the Sea Worlds. I wish I could go to FL with him and go to Busch Gardens. That would be a blast.
Have a great day everyone!
XOXO
