It Is Not Over

This. 

COVID IS REAL. It is not going away Nov 4. And with winter brings all other illnesses. I’m tired of wearing a mask. I’m tired of washing my hands 50 million times a day. I am tired of not being able to relax out of my home. But this is life. And every day I suck it up and do what is right. I just wish everyone else did too. 

Time To Cook! Let’s talk about Snacks

I’ve been working on my nutrition lately. Snacks are fun because you can pick one big thing or lots of little things. Here are my favs:

Protein: eggs, deli meat, protein shakes, cottage cheese

Carbs: raw veggies or fruit, roasted veggies 

Fat: nuts, olives, hummus 

If I want an “all in one” I may eat protein balls or a built bar. I try not to eat those every day. 

Winter Weather Already?

Yucky yuck. Not a fun way to start the week.  And they had school! It made for a light work day! 

Caturday: Halloween House Edition

Grandma bought the girls a new house. They haven’t had one since Christmas and they are THRILLED! 

They started off nicely taking turns on the top bunk

But then they got into a fight about it. AJ wanted to take a turn but Scully wasn’t ready. 

And then someone got hungry. Not sure which one did this:

Oh well! They love it and that’s all that matters. 

Fitness Friday!

So I’m almost to taper. I’m ready for my half and ready to restart some cross training goals. 

Sat: ran 12 miles. It was windy and hard and almost got hit. But the last longest run is done! 

Monday: nice walk. I was sore! 

Wednesday: 

We had a fun speed work. 1 mile warm up, 8 x 100 m and cool down. 

That’s it!

Thirsty Thursday

Want a quick meal?? Go to Target and buy this...

And add a package of shrimp. Dinner is done in 15 minutes! Best part was Lauryn ate two servings. You know it’s good then!

Back on the Wagon

I haven’t been on here for awhile but I’m trying to get back in the habit of blogging. 

Today is Wednesday so what’s up with us? Well Lauryn and Jeff are almost done with first semester (which is weird to think that way). She’s been on remote and while she may not love it, she’s doing really well. She’s got a good system going on. Work has picked up and is normal for me which is nice. 

Okay, that’s it for tonight. 

Caturday 10/3/2020

It’s that day already!!! This week has been a doozy. I’m going to work harder at my intention of blogging regularly. 

I also realized I haven’t even taken any pictures of the girls this week! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️
