Trying to find my way to a happy, healthy, balanced life.
Working on more art today 😊 Confession #1 I weighed myself today. I'm down 14 pounds since Jan 1st. Which is great. But I wasn't supposed to weigh myself until Feb 28th. Confession#2 I had a large diet coke today. I haven't had one since December. I wanted one on my free day last weekend… Continue reading Confession
I signed up to do a virtual 5k. Which I plan to walk, not run. I've done two 5k walks before. Both to support lung cancer. One in Nova Scotia and one in Oklahoma City. I don't have any desire to be a runner. I'll be happy just to be able to walk pain free… Continue reading Virtual 5k

I've done yoga mixed with Pilates, tai chi, and barre. I've done yin yoga, restorative yoga, power yoga, hot yoga. I've done yoga by… Continue reading Yoga

I took Ella tobagganing yesterday for 1.5 hrs in -20C. I got so cold I climbed into bed and wrapped myself in covers and could not warm up. I even enlisted B to come snuggle me to warm me up. Brrrr. I read that shivering from being cold and burn 400 calories an hour. I've… Continue reading Shiver!
I've spent about four hours outside the past 3 days. At least! Fresh cold air. Some walking. Walking in the cold makes my body seize up and ache. But it's good to get Ella outside playing and tobagganing. Today I had an art class. And decorated my plant shelf. And made chili. I had my… Continue reading Day 27
My book finally showed up! I've already started reading.....and it's so good! Ella and I made more Paleo brownies. These ones are even better. I think. This green drink was yummy 😋 It's Day 24. I've been eating healthy for 24 days. I'm really curious to weigh myself but haven't yet. Waiting for the 31st.… Continue reading Healthy as F*ck

We could see the sunshine filtering through the windows into the house. So I say "hey, we should go for a walk today?" B… Continue reading Reality post
