Hi guys I have to post my updates.

I fell last Friday and it put my in bed for 3 days.  I'm still recovering I scrapped up my knee (it feels okay at this point it's just a scab, eww I know).  But I also twisted my feet when I feel.  I'm not even sure how bent a toe back and the other half my foot.  They're still very tender and I walk with a limp.

That Friday before I fell I was at 5/5.  Had an awsome work out, cleaned the house and made a healthy dinner.

I am so sorry that you fell kakenterprise. I hope you recover quickly.

I feel bad for not posting any updates in this last week.  I had a job interview Friday and my anxiety was through the roof because of it...ugh.

Other than that, I've been doing well. I went to the gym for an hour every day this week and yesterday was the only day I didn't eat a healthy, home cooked meal.

I actually did some cleaning in my pony room, too. I've been neglecting it but I'm glad I got it done.

Friday, 5/5. The kids did not have school that day. So, I crammed as much of my goal completion in the morning as I could, before they got up. Then my youngest and I went on a 4-mile walk downtown together, and took the bus home. It was a fun day.

Saturday. 3/5. Did some memory review and got the grocery shopping done. Not really any chores.

Well I did play piano today....man you loose your progress when you take a long break. So piano needs to be my focus...so Is knitting. I have a piece to finish before the end of the month...it's for a swap.

I also found a pattern for bows. I started to test out. I am handing them out as prizes for a contest I am hosting. I have made 10 so the more I did the better they got:)

Woo got my picture in:)

So my goals this week are changing. I am going to focus on knitting and piano. If I get both done, and do some form of work out, that will be a 5 day for me.

I wish I knew how to post a video here. I was singing, no my dog went nuts. She loves to sing with me. I used to try and get her to sing with me, so I could use her in a performing act...I should get back into that:) my voice took a hit as my sickness has hindered my ability to sing....I am so out of practice.

Thursday 1/5

My FitBit decided to die without telling me it was low first.... So I've no idea how far I walked...    I did little gardening and less cleaning. Negligible exercise.

Friday 3/5

A lot of gardening. Some cleaning but mostly only maintenance. No exercise other than the gardening. A little over a mile and a half of walking.

Saturday 3/5

Some more gardening. Not much because of rain threat. A LOT of cleaning. No exercise but I feel the cleaning I did made up for it. Over three miles walked.

Sunday 4/5

Gardening in the rain at church while I had the other lady trying to start a gardening circle in our congregation. Came home and cleaned before helping the wee one set up a terrarium for roly polies. She wanted to go outside to play so a lot more gardening at home in the sunshine. A little over two miles walked.

Let's see...I think I left off on Thursday.

Thursday 5/18-3/5  Walked on the treadmill, light organizing in my room.

Friday 5/19-3/5 Walked on the treadmill, practiced the piano for the first time in months, did a bit of cleaning.

Saturday 5/20-I'm giving myself 5/5 because I completely decluttered my closet.  I am getting rid of everything that I haven't used since we moved in three years ago and it's more than I thought it would be.  I have also gotten rid of all the clothes that I haven't worn in the last three months.  I did the thing where I turned the hangers backwards and when I wore the clothes they got turned around the right way so I know what I wore and what I didn't.  I also did my mom's laundry while she and my dad went to see my nephew.

[Update on him under the spoiler.  I don't want to make it look like I'm hijacking the thread or getting off topic, so it's there if anyone is curious.]

Spoiler

My nephew isn't doing great, but I guess it could be worse.  His right lung failed and they have him on a machine that will remove his blood, oxygenate it, warm it, and return it to his body so that his heart can have a break from working so hard.  Apparently there are only two of these machines on this side of the country, one in Denver and one in Salt Lake so it's lucky that he's being treated in Salt Lake.  They also have machines removing the gunk from his lungs and breathing for him.  Aside from the pneumonia he's got a virus (I can't remember which one) that he's having a hard time kicking.  When they took a blood sample to do a virus count it was really high.  I guess when the number is too high for the machine to count they cut it in half so that the machine can process the number.  They had to cut it in half multiple times to get it down to a point where the number was usable.  (I'm not a doctor so I'm not sure if I'm explaining that right, that's just how it was explained to me.)  Apparently they're trying an experimental medicine (not FDA approved yet) because they don't know what else to try.  So right now he's stable, which considering all the ups and downs he's gone through we're taking as a good thing.

Sunday 5/21-3/5  Didn't walk on the treadmill but continued to work on decluttering my space.  I think I've made some really good progress this weekend. 


@Crowning_Glory13--Those bows are adorable!

Sunday. 4/5. I went on a 4 mile walk to church. Then I relaxed for the rest of the afternoon and evening. Did a lot of memory review. I even did some in church without my memory app.

Today. 4/5. I got most of my chores done. Did my memory review. The whole family is home because it's Victoria Day. It's not common for me to get anything done when the house is full, so I'm pleased with myself. My youngest and I have baked a belated birthday cake for my middle child. He's having his birthday party today. I don't typically handle wheat products anymore, so I hope it turns out all right and that I didn't contaminate myself in some way.

I took a short walk today...i was going nuts with kids

[Ponyfan]

I'm going to give myself a high number today. 4/5 I walked 3 times around the mall and got extra steps in as well. I've also eaten pretty healthy today.

 I wish I could ride the carasouel each time but it costs at least $2 for a short ride.

At least you can ride it as a treat:) yeah I walked and knitted...so 2/5. Piano won't happen today:( I hate playing when people can heat me.

Monday 3/5

Quite a bit of gardening. Would have been more but had to pick up youngest from school because she was sick. A bit over 2.5 miles walked. I made progress in two key areas that need to be cleaned but didn't focus like I should in favor of feeling like I got a lot of visible work done.    No exercise but that's because I chose a much needed nap instead.

4/5 for yesterday. It was a nice way to start the week, since I'm still nervous over my job interview (hoping to hear back this week).
