Healthy Pony Summer

I was good and did NOT buy the raspberry filled chocolate donuts...even though they're delicious and I really wanted to.

6/27

4/5 I walked 3 times around the mall. I had a big lunch but had lots of homemade popcorn for my evening meal along with a couple of other things.

Let me see.

Sunday. 3/5. Four miles. Didn't do chores or memorize. 3/5.

Monday. 4/5. Non walking day. Did do chores and did some memory review.

Tuesday. 5/5. No chores or memorizing, but I DID manage to walk 11 miles. Ah yeah, I think I'm going to manage that half-marathon distance after all. I used a different approach too. I took a 10 minute break for every hour I walked. In the end, I think that was good. Didn't hurt as much when I was done.

Wednesday. 3/5. Didn't memorize, but I did ride my bike to hubby's work (1 mile away) to give him the water bottle he forgot. Then later in the day, his new glasses arrived in the mail so the son and I walked there to deliver them to him. Got some chores done too, and then endured the presence of 3 teens and 1 pre-teen in the house for several hours.

Whew teens are tough:)

Monday....1/5 I was lazy. I did a short walk.
Tue 2/5 long walk and knitted.
Wed 3/5 I worked on my studio..i hope to get some students from this. Knitted today and hopefully some reading.

Let's see, 5/5 for Tuesday and 2/5 for Wednesday.

I need to figure out how to incorporate going to the gym into my new schedule. For reference, I'm now working 43 hours a week, split between two jobs (25 at one, 18 at the other). I'll be gone from 8:30am until about 6pm every day. I could always wake up super early (like 5am) to go to the gym, or, realistically, I could go to the gym only on Saturday and Sunday. I won't know what a full week at both jobs will be like until the week after next, since July 4th is next week and I don't work that day. I guess once I experience a full week, I'll see what works for me. I'm excited about having a second job that allows to me keep my current job, but I'm nervous about how this will all work. I'm thankful for no weekend hours, but I kinda wish I could pick up maybe a Saturday at one place just to keep from having my whole week jam packed. We'll see!

My internet went out yesterday for several hours.

6/28 2/5 I walked 2 1/2 times around the mall but had a large unhealthy evening meal. I did have tea instead of Coke though.

6/29 4/5 I walked 3 times around the park which was a lot harder than walking around the mall. For lunch I had a little fast food but ate a lot of veggies with homemade dip. I also had a Coke Zero instead of regular Coke.

Rainbowrific, I understand the jungle of multiple jobs. I tried to keep my goals in mind and would test them. I learned that I wake up too early to get up earlier to work out. If I worked a desk job, I would walk and eat on my lunch break. Push to hard and your jobs won't think you can handle it. It's all in learning:)

I went home sick today:( nothing huge in being sick, but work was so over staffed they let me go home.i did knit and some Togo. So I am 2/5 today. I am on day 18 of 365 of my temp blanket.

3/5

weigh in this morning!

[Crowning_Glory13]

I have a hard time with getting yarns!!!! My temp blanket has already taken out all of one color...i am so worried to get a way off color. Sigh...knitting struggles.
Friday 1/5. I did some knitting.
Today. I did my walking, some gardening, and knitted. Just because I took more time to work out i give myself a 3.

So here is some news. I am going on vacation at the end of July. So I won't be very present at the last part of healthy pony. Keep going to the end. When I return, I will play catch up. Numbers that have been recorded, I will start adding together. Our top score will get a surprise from me:) I will announce that when I return:)

[Ponyfan]

With the holiday coming up I'm afraid my numbers will be pretty low this week.

0/5 today
 The food that was supposed to ready when I got home didn't cook so I ended up eating out and had a large meal.

This will be a hard week for me too ponyfan...1/5 and that's just because I knit when I am board:p I had to make an easy point for myself confidence.

So, not good today:( a dear pony friend is going through a very hard time...just wish I could hug her. Darn internet not able to physically hug someone. Had my first appointment today. Thought there would be more, but just questions and blood work. I talked about my funky heart, and it was passed off like it was nothing. I felt the things I was concerned about and feeling was looked at as nothing. It could be no concern, but I just felt they didn't listen...doctors tend to do this to me a lot. I tend to avoid them for this. My puppy (well she's 7) dislocated her shoulder, so that vet bill is high. She is doing well and yeah, but I had to pass up a great pony deal:(  so I have knitted today. That will probably be it. I do need to watch my weight. I was hefty before the pregnancy, and recommended to not gain too much. I did gain 3 pounds between visits. Not bad or worriso me, but my age and weight can cause issues later down the road. Sorry to sad rant. It was more of a sad rant, not a what's your problem situation. Thanks for your time.
