Currently....

Good Friday Morning!!!!

So I haven't done one of these Currently posts in a long time... and these are one of my favorite posts.

Current..

 Book:
Go Set A Watchman by Harper Lee.  I was super excited to find this book at the Library finally. I haven't started it yet, I tried to the other day but I ended up falling asleep. I do plan on Sunday spending a good part of the morning doing just that.



Music:
Well I am still obsessed with the Sons of Anarchy soundtrack. But this song by the Zac Brown Band, is my new favorite running song. I love the beat and it really pumps me up.


Guilty Pleasure:
My new Erin Condren planner. I guess it is no a guilty pleasure per say, but I am obsessed with stickers and decorating it and making it look so visual. Every day  I am looking at my planner and how I am going to make it better.




Drink:
Nothing special at all, just coffee and water.

Food:
I have been trying to get as much protein as I can lately. I have been eating yogurt and chicken, anything and everything that is. I always thought protein would be the hardest thing for me but I have found it to be a lot easier and I really love protein, it is in a lot of my favorite foods. I have been using My Fitness Pal for over 100 days now and I am still loving it. Synced with my FitBit and Running Apps and activity, it really has made a huge difference. While the scale is not moving much, I am seeing some good changes.

Show:
All my shows are coming back!! YAY!!!  We have even started some new shows to watch weekly, The Grinder, Grandfathered, Shades of Blue, all really different but good shows.

Triumphs:
Probably my biggest Triumph is getting my new car. Gosh, I can not tell you how awesome it feels to drive around in that car. Also the fact that I am back to running longer miles again. I have truly missed the longest distance. I did 9 miles the other day and it felt wonderful. I missed getting lost out on runs and just going and going.

Need:
Honestly there is nothing I need. I have everything I need. But my NEED TO DO list could go on and on lol.

Mood & Excitement:
I will combine these two. Mood, happy and feeling like I don't want to go to work haha. Excitement, off on Sunday and James and I are having a date night tomorrow night to see a movie!!

So what are you Currently up to these days????

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I ...

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look ...

Journey to 26.2 Day 33: Strive for Progress, Not Perfection

Image
I saw this quote the other day when I was looking up a quote for a Challenge on Twitter I am participating in, called #sharesomethinginspiring and this just rang so clear to me. I know there are days where I just want it to all fall into place. I want to run fast, run long and strong, I want to drop the weight, I want to see my arms and legs tone up and everything just be there. I follow a lot of fitness, running and Weight Watcher people and I want to be so close like most of them are... And then I read this and it just seemed to make sense. I was thinking and striving for perfection, something perfect. The perfect mile, the perfect weight, the perfect experience. You know what, I am not going to have that because it is not attainable. But progress is. Hitting my marks, running when I am dead tired, like today, or when I just don't feel like it. Hitting that snooze button over and over, sweating like crazy, filling up on protein and having to have a salad when I would rath...
