Mid-Week Updates

My new schedule is working well so far.

I did my first OBE Fitness workout and I'm sore -- good sore (no surprise).  I did a low impact cardio circuit and it was fun.  Lots of legs and that's what's sore and tired today, but I need that -- use muscles in different ways.  So far, OBE seems like a good option.  Lots of workouts to choose from, workout plans, longer options, express options, live classes.  Variety without a big cost (under $30/month).

I canceled the Pete's Paleo subscription.  I had lowered it to 5 meals every two weeks.  These were a nice, healthy freezer option during quarantine, but I'm tired of them.  My only complaint was SO MANY BEETS and I hate beets -- super duper hate beets and didn't eat them.  Also, the chicken was usually dark meat with skin, but I did eat it.  Also, not my preference -- I don't like the texture of dark meat chicken.  For the price, that was too many "not liking" options.  The only specification you could make was no pork.  That said, great company, great customer service and good delivery.  I still have about 10 meals to finish up.  I wish you could choose the menu since there were a lot that were excellent.

Monti is feeling better.  Antibiotic has all but kicked his cough away.  

Today is a cook up ... ground beef and ground turkey.  Hello, MEATBALLS (!!)  I have a few variations to try -- nothing fancy and I'll modify the recipes with what I have on hand.  The freezer is getting packed again.  I found organic chicken at Costco so next week is a chicken cook up.  Nice to be stocked up with cooked meat.

I'm going to take my "extra" walk today and do some podcast listening.  Hoka shoes are out for shipping -- GET HERE already LOL.  I wanted to wait to do my extra walking until they arrived, but oh well.  Long power walk and a 10 minute express OBE arms workout.  Partially sunny so I'll get some VitD happening.

This Is How It Always Is (Laurie Frankel) is okay.  I'm almost halfway and it's the same thing over and over -- the story needs to move along.  I want to finish it quickly so I can read something else (not a good sign), but shouldn't judge a book until it's over.  Stay tuned.

On the agenda today is to purchase Enneagram videos.  You rent them for a week (I think) so I needed a stretch where I was willing to listen to 6 hours of videos.  It's a recording of a seminar by Suzanne Stabile.  She's one of the "experts" and trainers on Enneagram and believes in figuring out your number through hearing about it -- not a test.  The more I learn about 6, the more I think it fits though.  Also, the more I learn about 2, the less I think it fits.  Jen Hatmaker (my guru LOL) recommends her and her videos.  $40 and since I'm doing nothing social, it's my "fun" money purchase.  I'll do an Enneagram post (or two) once I watch the videos.  

Best get moving before it's too hot.  Dogs and I had our super early walk, but it's time for me to do mine.  Stay well.  Later gators.
