Today I've walked on the treadmill. No workout yesterday.........horrible night's sleep, plus I was busy with running a few errands and finalizing some paperwork.
Last night I slept great. Perhaps it was due to sleep deprivation the night before and perhaps it was due to listing to "136 Hz Theta | Deep Dream | Binaural Beats " from my InsightTimer App right before bed. I only got above 10,000 steps twice last week, but one day I got 9,5XX steps. This week has not been a big week for steps either. I purchased Jessica Smith's Lift and Shift which is keeping me busy. This was a huge hit at dinner last night and oh so easy. I used one can chickpeas and 1 can cannellini beans (because that's what I had). I also stirred in some arugula/rocket that needed to be used up (in lieu of spinach). I served it with leftover homemade toasted naan bread and it was *yummy*. I made sure to separate Jack's portion before I stirred the baked feta into the bean/tomato/arugula mixture. https://smittenkitchen.com/2021/02/b...and-chickpeas/

It has been a while since I have posted but DH & I are now fully vaccinated and DD gets her second vaccine Thursday morning. I'm at the condo with DD right now. I came up last Friday to go to the baseball games with DD and to help her get the condo cleaned and ready before she comes home for the summer. She got an internship at the Mississippi Aquarium.
I drove up to the condo with the dogs on Friday morning. DD & I went and got lunch and then came back to the condo to feed the dogs and get them settled before we went to the baseball game Friday night. The game went into extra innings and didn't end until 11:28 p.m. I got over 10,000 steps but only because I was clapping a lot during the game. That's the one thing I don't like about the wrist trackers (I'm wearing a Fitbit Inspire now), they can overestimate - or underestimate - your steps based on your arm movements. I want all my steps to count, but I want to actually have taken those steps too. Saturday they played a doubleheader since the weather was supposed to be bad Sunday when game 3 was originally scheduled. We had a great time, but it was another long day. Sunday we were exhausted so we didn't really do much. We went to lunch, did a little shopping and walked around the rose garden. The roses are all in bloom right now so it's really pretty. We also watched the last two episodes of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. DD had to work yesterday so I started washing towels and then I went to lunch with her and one of her friends that she works with. We made a run to Kroger after that. Last night she grilled steaks for supper and we started watching The Mighty Ducks Game Changers. We also started cleaning the condo. She started in the kitchen and I started in the living room. She's working again today and tomorrow and then taking Thursday and Friday off since she gets her shot on Thursday morning. Before I came up to the condo, I had been making more of an effort to get my steps in recently and I have gotten over 10,000 several times lately. I've also done a few short workouts on my rower. Deb - How did your appointment with the neurologist go? |
