Okay, so I said I would record what I've been eating this week, but I'm too damned tired. Will do tomorrow when I have a lighter cardio day and more time afterwards. Going to sleep good tonight. Actually, I've been sleeping so much better since lifting. Unfortunately, I've been sleeping so deeply that I've had to keep my alarm clock in bed with ( Read more... )

Woke up with this song stuck in my head:

Not bad, especially since I got up early to make sausage rolls for the co-workers and I needed something upbeat to get me going at 5 AM. Everybody has been a bit stressed lately, so I thought a hot breakfast would help. Being the first person in the office has its perks too: I made the coffee so it was ( Read more... )

Spring cleaning my iPod and trying to find some different music for a work playlist. I think this one is probably going to be whatever hits my ear at the time instead of any set mood ( Read more... )

So I guess one of the hints that you've been doing too much crochet is when your hand decides to stop working. I've been wandering the house with one of those support comfort type gloves on as a way to rest.

Thermostat in my car said the outside temperature was 109 around 2:00 this afternoon. GAH.

I have taco meat simmering on the stove right now. It's the boss' birthday tomorrow, so we're all chipping in and doing a lunch. I'm hoping that I made enough; the inspectors are known to go back for thirds and fourths ( Read more... )

1. Writer's Block asks: What's your favorite song?

At the moment, I'm very much on a Florence + the Machine kick. I've got Lungs: the B-Sides stuck on repeat for my on-the-job playlist. I don't have a favorite because I really like the entire album.

The hat came out cute. I think I made it a bit too big, but that's okay; when it gets really cold or windy it'll cover my ears. I made a second one in roughly 2 hours, if you don't count me stopping to watch the Barefoot Contessa on Food Network. The second hat is a little smaller and I did two rounds at the end to close the brim up a little ( Read more... )
