Annnd it’s Monday again! Funny how it always comes back around…
The weekend wasn’t as active as I had hoped… crappy weather on Saturday and a baby shower that I almost forgot about on Sunday put a damper on my plans of hiking with miss Nora.
It was a relatively uneventful weekend…
Friday after work I got Nora and we went home and made mushroom and black bean tacos for dinner and then played a bit and went to bed.
Saturday, miss Nora and I both slept in (needed!) and then we went grocery shopping and ran some errands then over to my parents’ house to watch the UK game. For dinner, I ate some pizza (bad, I know!). Obviously it was a cheese-less veggie pizza, but the crust was pretty oily. And I may or may not have had a few beers during the game. (emphasis on may)
Sunday, Nora and I got up, I made a big pitcher of juice for the week, my granola and some vegan banana cranberry bread! Then I cleaned house, did some laundry and we got ready and went to my cousin’s baby shower. No formal exercise but I did spend about 20 minutes catching/throwing toddlers and then Nora and I walked down to the park and I dominated some monkey bars… turns out, they’re pretty damn hard!
Last night for dinner I had a grilled Portobello burger on WW bun, grilled asparagus, cherry tomatoes and onions and some grilled pineapple for dessert! Needless to say, dinner was AMAZING. I LOVE grilling season so much!!

So I’m a little confused with my scale right now…. On Saturday morning I was really excited because it told me that I lost around 5 pounds last week! (putting me down to 226) So I was pumped and put it on facebook and blah blah… then I weighed myself yesterday morning and it said that I was at 237?! I have a hard time believing that I gained 11 pounds overnight. I’m hoping that there was just something wrong and I’ll try again later this week lol. Regardless, I know I’ve been eating a lot less (however, drinking more) and I did actually workout last week so… ? I don’t know. I stopped worrying too greatly about the number on the scale some time ago, but it is nice to see the numbers go down… and they really haven’t in a while. I’m ready to get back to the downward cycle.
I’m having trouble with… well, life in general right now. I mentioned briefly in my last post that I’m feeling really out-of-place with everything in life and I don’t feel like I fit in anywhere, and that is still completely accurate. I’ve been really depressed lately, especially as of the last week, and I don’t know what to do about it. My brain is craving a giant road trip with the windows down and music up… but I’m thinking that’s not going to happen for like…. Oh, I don’t know, 16 years? I want to go hiking/camping but fear that I may die in the wilderness so that’s probably not a good idea… I just don’t know what to do with my brain. I feel like being in northern Kentucky is clouding my mind and I need some freaking clarity! I have headaches nearly constantly and I’m really tired all of the time. I just want to feel normal and healthy again. One of these days….
So, after that uplifting and motivating schpeel… I believe it’s time for me to head out today.
Until tomorrow…
