Hi!
I got a lot of good stuff done this weekend. I had a lot of it planned out which I've found is key for me. I scheduled everything from working out to when I had time to set aside to get my kitchen to-do list done.
And I used my crock pot for the first time and the results were delicious.
This week I have a much more positive outlook than last week which was nice. Sometimes when I get gloomy it's just impossible to snap out of. But it's just about the middle of the month so I've been taking a look back at my goals.
For my fitness goal I've been ticking off how much I work off. I'm trying to get in at least 20 minutes of any particular activity. It was slow to start but I'm making a good dent in biking and walking.
For my organizational goal I got a bunch of kitchen canisters. I meant to get a kitchen island, one I've wanted since like 2001. And Ikea has discontinued it. Cry cry cry, I'm going to have to look for it on Craigslist and whatnot because I WILL have this kitchen island :)
seriously you guys. it's one of my favorite things ever. |
Healthy eating, oh gosh I don't even know. One of my favorite things at Ikea is their lingonberry soda. It's got to be as sugary as Kool-Aid. No way is it good for me and I had two full cups of it. And then Korean bbq for lunch. Sunday wasn't too much better, although it was just as delicious. I had grilled cheese and tomato soup at a friend's house for lunch. So good. I get spoiled with food, I know it.
So this week I've got to make up for it and step up my working out. I've got a few healthy meals picked out. I found this tip on pinterest to sprinkle a little bit of sugar free jello on apple slices for an awesome candy apple treat. I tried it this morning and it was SO good!! From the looks of it I barely touched the jello so a little goes a long way. It totally satisfied my craving for something sweet in the morning.
That's enough rambling. I'll pick a topic tomorrow, but today my brain is all over the place so it's only fitting this post is too.

Good luck on finding that kitchen counter/island thingy. I wish you the best of luck. :) I heart IKEA. I try not to go there because I'm a sucker for their cookies with the fruit and chocolate in there...and their $1 ice cream cones....ugh. I hate food. LOL!
Check Ebay too. I found the bench that Ikea discontinued that I fell in love with on there among other discontinued items!
I'm liking the positive attitude! That is a cool looking island and I love all the storage. Good luck finding it.
What flavor of jello did you use on the apples? Sounds tasty.
Have a great week and make mindful choices (that's my goal for this week).
Chubby McGee - oh my gosh for me it's a struggle not to get the cinnamon rolls...they smell so good!!!
Marie - thanks, I've been checking so hopefully it comes up!!
Tammy - thank you!! I used strawberry. For me it's just strawberry everything all the time lol. I bet lemon or lime would actually make for a good combo too!
