Just wanted to let you know I've overcome two mental blocks in the past 24 hours thanks to you: the pans, and the papers. Samantha comes home with so many papers I just know that each child in her class is responsible for an entire forest coming down.
Thanks for having your own blocks so I could overcome mine!

I'd love to do it, but keeping the clover ("lawn") is no money, replacing it all with rock is expensive. We have one area that was a mess that I covered and killed everything in so that we can make it all rock, but we've yet to get the rocks. I guess it's partly lazyness, part me assuming it'll be more expensive than we will pay right now. But that really would be soooo awesome. I'm not a lawn person. I wouldn't mind a small patch, but since we don't spend much time outside, why bother? Lawns are so not "green."
But after almost 2 years, I'm finally getting the gutters cleaned today.
Blacktop your lawn. Paint it green. Put in little yellow spots for dandelions.
nothing of use to report today or yesterday (well, actually we went on a nice little walk yesterday, but that's it) as headaches have come back, apparently. Found out my new med is best taken right before planning on lying down and becoming comatose. That makes it infinitely less nauseating. *sigh*
Tomorrow, I do plan on doing SOMETHING. frickin frickin frack frack.
anyway…
I forgotted what I was exactly gonna have for my hopefully daily thing, cuz like i thought there were 5 but oh well.
incline cg pushup x10 (30deg, about. doing incline because I have very wide floor pushups, but have a hard time doing them close on the floor, kill my shoulders)
stair runs x5
front plank 45s
jumpsquats x12
I officially hate at&t. I've wasted 2 different tuesdays waiting for them to install uverse, with nary a call to tell me that they "can't." Assured they can. But no, can't. Even though I was fucking IN THE DAMN HOUSE when he decided that YESTERDAY, he still couldn't fucking knock and say so, nor could anyone call between then and today, so that I didn't waste time sitting around till after the appointment time waiting. Fucktards.
So now, when they do open up to us, even though we *should* be in their service reach now, I would actually rather just stick with fucking pain in my ass time warner than them. Thanks at&t. And no, you taking some cash offa my cell bill isn't gonna soften my heart. douches.
So, I guess just naming my mental block helped me get over it. 'Cause the dishes are finally done.
I think I'm going to start over with new cookie sheets (the one's now double as pizza pans and as such have cutter marks all over) and get disposable pizza pans.
I'm also not in love with the dish washing liquid. It's "green" and I think it looses it bubbles too fast. Lots of excuses I know.
You da bomb!
Two things ...
1. Pizza stone. I have several pieces of Pampered Chef stone ... round pizza stone, jellyroll pan, loaf pan, round pan, etc etc. All great. Don't use soap, just a little plastic scrapy thing. Soak for a bit to uncrust and scrape and voila! They are clean.
2. Silpat. They make these cookie sheet liners. No sticking. Easy cleanup. Nice.

hopped on the elliptical and watched a bunch of PS tutorials, apparently 35min, which is about how long my battery lasts, these days. Granted, we're talking 3+ year old machine, so not too bad…
Anyway, 35min, lvl5, .92mi
One of the projects I have to do is a piece for the Wellness Center at Peace… which is the nurse's office, counseling, disability services, and a place that I guess they have set up for chillin… of the various issues they were talking about covering, the main theme is "healthy earth, healthy body, healthy mind" …
I'm doing something to empower and inspire greatness, to encourage people to shine brilliantly bright, and to help other do the same. *shrug* At the moment for tomorrow I need to come up with 3 specific goals.
I'm planning, I think, on a sculptural piece, but one that sets on the wall. we'll see how that goes.
headache today meant no class, which turned out to be big bummer because I lost an absent for it and apparently it was cut really short. Oh well.
At any rate, managed to hop on the elliptical a few times, and that's about all besides sit on my ass and watch tutorials.
5 min .17mi lvl5
22min .6mi lvl5
15min .42mi lvl5
been kinda shakey and low blood sugar all day. ok after eating, returns shortly after though. not sure why, but at the moment it's nothing to worry about, some days suck.
going way OT here --
is there a North American vs. European convention for Titles on Book Spines?
Most US books read from the top down - that is, if you set it in a shelf you'd cock your head to the right to read it (as in your lovely cover) --
but I have some books from Germany that read bottom up - you'd tilt your head to the left to read it -
and just now - I found some looseleaf manuals on a shelf upside down because the titles in the spines were put in down-to-up and someone shelved them up-to-down
just curious if you came across anything in your book cover researching
I've noticed books like that, but nothing that I could notice a pattern such as that, but it didn't occur to me to look. Didn't notice recently though, it's just in the past. Some cds are like that too. annoys the crap outta me. I might have to look into that…
quick little reminder that I'm terribly deconditioned:
incline close grip pushups x13 (bar set @8 in rack)
front plank 55sec
1leg glute bridge x12ea
rev pushups x5 (more like facepulls, feet at ass*)
jumpsquats x12
2hand kb swings 10#x60sec
stair runs x3
*feet at ass= in starting of bridge position when on floor, feet just below ass. progression will be moving feet farther away till straight legged. This has the added bonus of at the moment meaning the movement is like a facepull, pulling more to neck/chin than chest, which helps my shoulders more than just some frickin row variation.
cals are good, and this weekend I'm finishing getting the meal plan in place, which is cals and macros (hitting min pro and fat). I'm working on postcards now, so there's lots of asssitting going on. Yesterday I did manage to wii fit some and get on the elliptical.

Looking good with activity (minus asssitting, which I'm also an expert at) and food - seems like everyone's gonna kick ass in March - is it because it's spring?
