Boom. Down 2.6 lbs at this week’s WW weigh-in. That’s eight pounds gone in one month. Feeling pretty good about myself right about now.
Exist.io: My Week In Notes
I’ve been using the Exist app for over two months, and it’s almost everything a data nerd like myself could hope for. It pulls in data from the four corners of the interwebs and aggregates it to give me a picture of how various factors affect my mood, my sleep, my weight, etc.
It’s also handy as a nightly microjournal, since I log my mood and a quick note. I haven’t decided if I’m going to make this a regular lazyblog category, but I do like the idea of sharing this quick summary of the past week.
All in all, last week was a good one. I especially enjoyed having Aaron home from work for a vacation week. 😀
August in the Garden
I feel like August passed me by quicker than usual, and not in a good way. The weather was either too rainy or to hot to get outside and weed, or I had other commitments (like evening karate classes twice a week for myself and my son).
Still, I did manage to get out and photograph on Bloom Day, even if I didn’t post the photos on the 15th.
The Altheas are self-sowing, and I honestly don’t really mind. It looks like the main purple one may have died this year, but other purple seedlings that I didn’t yank up last year are blooming this year. I’m OK with that, even if they’re a little crowded. Maybe I’ll prune them into a hedge and get rid of the front fence someday.
Krav Maga Selfie
I earned my second stripe today! When I got home after class, my husband joked that I’m a second degree white belt now.
In one more month, I test for my yellow belt. Hope I can work up to ten full push-ups by then…
Morning Selfie
I was feeling particularly put-together this morning.
