Sunday Inspirations on Monday
Can you believe I already forgot to post yesterday?!?!? I got so into crafting I completely forgot! Doh!
This little Pixie Hat is adorable! It lists gauge too, so maybe we shall see one of these in the future!
Do you remember Stick Horses?!?!? I so do, if my nieces and nephew were closer, I would so make each of them one . . . I’m not sure they’d last in the postal system. Maybe next time we go to visit, if I have time, I can make the horses with them.
Recipes I’d like to try:
I miss Jalapeno Poppers, but these Baked Stuffed Jalapenos might be a good substitute. I also might try them with milder peppers for the husband. I think this is a definite this week.

Photo A Day
So, since the crafting will be less as I try to get my butt into the healthy gear, I wanted to make sure I am still here on the blog. I am afraid if I start the slippery slope of being absent, I might lose the blog altogether. Which I know may sound silly to some, but it is a concern of mine and legitimately so because my mind easily wanders off onto new things. I enjoy the blog and do not want to let it go.
So, I’ve decided to do one of the 365 photo things again. It will just be a photo of something from my day, which I may or may not go into detail about. I always enjoy looking at other people’s photos like this.
In the essence of “DO”, there is no time like the present, so to start it off, today’s picture:
This is a picture of my desk. I know you may be wondering where then is the desk? ☺ When ideas start going about certain things I want references, past pieces that I’ve worked on, etc., my dishes rarely make it to the sink and the desk gets buried. It gets cleaned off and sorted every weekend, but by the time next weekend hits, it will inevitably look like this again. It drives my husband crazy as he is a minimalist and cannot possibly understand why I would need all of this stuff at one time! I like to compare, contrast, etc. to make sure my ideas are going where I want them to. Then I have multiple things I am thinking about. He reminds me that that is what the craft room is for. I remind him, it’s winter in an apartment where we don’t control the heat, it’s freezing in there! ☺

Food Friday - Muffins Revisted
No pictures, as they look the same as they did before. I tried the suggestion of dusting the fruit with some of the dry mix . . . it didn't work. That's okay, still good, next time I will just need to chop the fruit up small. Lessons tried and learned. :)

Healthy Thursday
Weight: 277.4 (This is up .8 from last week) Only two days with exercise and not enough sleep this week.
Friday:
Exercise= None, was exhausted. Basically was lazy, watch some Netflix and knitted after work.
Sweets= None.
Sleep/Mood = About 7 hours, I didn’t take my B vitamins today, so I can re-situate when I take them. I didn’t have the tiredness during the day like before. My plan now is to take them when I get home from work and see how that works out.
Saturday:
Exercise= 35 minutes of mat exercises, 15 minutes of abdominal work on the stability ball, and arm exercises - 2 sets of 10 reps with 8lb weights
Sweets= None, although tempted because the husband bought himself some ice cream that happens to be gluten free.
Sleep/Mood= 8.5 hours of sleep and I slept good, which was nice. Was in a good mood the whole day.
Sunday:
Exercise= None
Sweets= None
Sleep/Mood= 9 hours of sleep, but I tossed and turned a bit. Dreams like being late for work kept waking me up. Otherwise good though.
Monday:
Exercise= 30 minutes of squat, lunges, leg work in general, 20 minutes on the stability ball, and arm exercises – 2 sets of 10 reps with 8lb weights
Sweets= Handful of peanut M&Ms because the husband bought a large bag.
Sleep/Mood= 6ish . . . as always Sunday to Monday never good.
Tuesday:
Exercise= None
Sweets= A handful of peanut M&Ms again.
Sleep/Mood= 6.5 hours, have been feeling tired this week, not sure why.
Wednesday:
Exercise= None because my body was just tired.
Sweets= None
Sleep/Mood= 6.5 hours, still feeling tired. I have been trying to get my vitamins on a schedule that aren’t going to make me tired, but I don’t think there is such a thing, so I’ll probably start taking them in the morning again.
Thursday:
Exercise= Will exercise tonight, at least my arms and on the stability ball. I am trying to be easy on my knees, but they are not enjoying this venture back into exercising.
Sweets= 1 peanut butter cup
Sleep/Mood= Only slept like 6 hours last night, if that, because I stayed up making peanut butter cups for work today as we had a tailgate lunch thing.
Overall, this week has felt long and short. Each individual day feels long and drawn out, yet I look over the week and it feels like it flew by and I accomplished little. Almost no crafting has been done this week at all. The blog has been ignored. I need to get next week organized better. Last week I focused more on sleep and was successful, this week the sleep was lacking and I think I paid for it. Well, now we know next week’s focus . . . sleep! So goal is 7.5 hours of sleep each night and do arm exercises each night.
