I decided I’d better try to have some quiet days as it is getting very close to when I’ll have no chance of that!
Exercise:
After enjoying a cup of tea in bed, I headed out for my run. I got about 4.5km in when the rain started pelting down. All I could do was tuck my phone in my sleeve and head for home as fast as I could. I finished 5.3km and the last kilometer was my fastest by far! I guess it’s time to put my phone in a bag on my runs again.
This evening I finally got back to my weight training as well. I did 3 sets of 12 of the following:
Calf raises, hamstring curls, reverse lunges, squats, deadlift, bridge, sit up, dead bug, chest press, flies, bent over rows, bicep curls, overhead tricep extension, front raise, and shoulder press.
It’s good to finally get back to it and now I just have to make it a habit!
Knitting:
I have spent most of the day in absolute silence working on my knitting. I am loving how the Not a Boring Sweater looks already, but it sure does take concentration and counting.
I am twenty rows into that yoke full of cabling. I think I’ll be thankful for the mindless stockinette when I get there! I am a little worried the sweater is going to be too big for me:(
Eating:
Not a bad day:
Banana with peanut butter and jam
Salmon burger
Blackberries
Carrot, celery, cucumber slices with guacamole and two ham sticks ( no idea, but I found them in my freezer).
Well I’m going to take a break and read or watch a chick flick.
Have fun!
AJ
That sounds like a marvelous day.
It was quite nice once I got the knitting figured iut
All that exercise makes me want to sweat just reading about it 😅
I need to get back to it as I have to put on a bathing suit at Christmas time
That’s the worst time of year to put on a bathing suit! All that feasting would go straight to my hips! 😵
I know! Thankfully my family doesn’t worry about my food allergies so maybe I’ll get skinny on this family holiday!🤣🤣
What color yarn are you knitting your sweater?
Blue
What a great day!
It was:)
Rest up! The summer time off is just flying by AJ!!! I love your sweater!
It has flown by:( Thanks I’m hoping I succeed at getting it down!
Sometimes it’s nice to just have a quiet day in! Except for your run, of course 🙂
Lol if I run I don’t have to feel guilty about staying on the couch all day!
got to love giving yourself a quiet day to just do what you love to do
It was really nice!
Sadly time’s a tickin’ for you. The Summer sped on by but you were busy all Summer.
Yes I did seem to do a lot this summer:)
I can’t wait to see it when it’s done!
Hopefully sooner than later!
