Wishes, Dreams, and Lies #6

It's super easy for me to work out in the winter time. Going to the gym when it's dark and cold is definitely preferable to biking outside in the sun. Another health option that is easier in the winter is eating cold smoothies first thing in the morning. This morning I made a smoothie (truth). I wish it had gone more smoothly. First, I shredded the kale in the bottom. Next, I added the frozen fruit, yogurt and peanut butter. Then, I turned on the blender. I WISH I would have check the bottom to make sure it was correctly aligned. Soon, smoothie was literally hitting the walls. When I took time to align it and try again, I DREAMED that it would go smoothly. As I sat down to eat my smoothly, I started finding chunks of the seal in my smoothie. I'l save you more details, but the bottom is on so tight since I didn't realize the seal was shredding and kept tightening the bottom. Basically, I can't get the bottom off and I found ten pieces of the seal in my smoothie. I WISH I would have taken a picture of the shredded seal full of smoothie. A new blender is ordered (Black and Decker Crush Master), and I'm on my way to the gym.

I have really been enjoying Barre 3 online workouts this school year. You can pay 10/month and do unlimited workouts. Really good. And no cold trips to the gym.

Sankalpa Day 5

Today I went back to the interweb to find out what I could post about that would relate to sankalpa . "...Sankalpa has the potential to release tremendous power by clearly defining and focusing on a chosen goal." My chosen goal since May has truly been on being physically active. Since it's cold and miserable out, I've been being active inside instead of outside. December 6th (or something like that) was the last time I ventured outside for physical activity. I, however, have still been going to they gym and focusing on being physically fit (or at least burning enough calories to eat more food). Yesterday I received an early morning text from a friend in God's Country . President Obama was talking about "The President's Challenge" . Today (I tried yesterday and decided to put it off until today... forget out it... let it happen... put it aside... clear my mind of it... all probably sankalpa) I formed a group. The...

What if... The Delivery

Molly was excited to get a package from her friend who lives in Alaska. When she opened the box, she was confused. Although the shirt was actually soft and of good quality, she was upset by the guns in the flag. When she googled Holster's, it was exactly what she thought... pro-gun. She didn't know how to handle the situation, so she sent a picture stating she was confused. Her friend had obviously lost her mind. During the conversation, she kept proclaiming that she hadn't sent a t-shirt. When Molly explained it was her writing on the box, things became weird. The friend was in a state of denial. Molly even sent a text with a picture of the writing on the box. Molly's friend was adamant that she sent homemade condiments. She wouldn't give up on her story even though it was clear Molly is in possession of an NRA type t-shirt. After much deliberation, the two friends realized what had happened. The original box, wit...

Missing You

Two Sundays ago I missed church because I was out of town. Last Sunday I missed church because I could not get to church due to the marathon (blocking my path... not my running). Dad and I tried to leave early, but we did not leave early enough. I joked with Dad about the fact that they would miss me at church. When I checked my e-mail this evening, I actually had an e-mail from my pastor saying I was missed. It was a short e-mail, but it was sweet and definitely a positive part of my day.
