Such a great description

Day 2 - Discover   Gonna continue with the spoilers for now, seems most straightforward.    

This is very intriguing. What's the picture? Why is she burying it? Why might she heal so quickly? Why does her mother give such a sense of dread? So many questions...   Also, that's one heck of a paper cut, holy!

You're right. Sometimes when I feel this way, working out feels better, like empowering. But lately, I just feel tired and things hurt.  Like just now...No.. You are right.

Oh, I can do un-assisted squats now! Surprised myself and my physio guy with that one, knocked off 3 sets of 10. Just bodyweight obvs but still!   beautiful, classic October day here. Did some science I wanted to do, some other stuff I had to do, did physio, rode around on my bike. Now getting ready for choir rehearsal (long one tonight and I’m not super motivated to go, but eh, I’m committed).

I dunno man, a big part of strength training is managing CNS fatigue. If you're finding you need to do some fatigue management atm (getting some fukcing rest) that certainly is part of the process.

I'm back to tracking saturated fat and fiber and it feels pretty good. I'm back to aiming for under 20 grams of saturated fat and over 20 grams of fiber instead of going for 12 grams of saturated fat and 28 grams of fiber.  I read that 12 grams of saturated fat is heart healthy which is awesome, but I am working really hard to kinda stay under 20 right now, and I'm accepting that I'm not ready to level up yet. I'm taking sundays off too, so I'm never going to build up a 200 day streak, but I think that's important for me and my wellness at this point in time.     I'm walking a lot, but strength training hasn't happened yet. I don't know why. My brain is just like screaming and holding onto the door frame every time I think "I should workout." I'm really tired.  I think this is my JUST DO IT thing for the West Marches campaign. It's starting to chew holes through my to-do lists.  I spent two hours looking at fitness tracking charts yesterday instead of actually fitnessing. Ugh... I'll be back. I can HEAR some of you saying "Today isn't over, go get it done"   grumble grumble. I'll be back to tell you it's done. grumble grumble. 

Thanks! They put temporary waterproofing up that doesn't look pretty, but the leak is finally drying out in the house, and we're really excited about that. Of course, looking at the state of things in the southern states, our little leak feels pretty insignificant, but I'm pretty sure no one is keeping score.      I'm sorry that it leaked before it got replaced.  I honestly find homes very stressful, but then again, being a renter is very stressful too. We got our roof replaced last year? Two years? We were getting mice in the attic which is like a deeeeeeep phobia of my mom's.  They were chewing through rotted wood. We were basically one bad storm away from watery disaster. I think that's why this leak was so stressful, because we were like "The roof shouldn't be doing this." and now that we know it's the side of the house, it gives us more confidence in the roof.  

Thank you!  The boost to my Conficence stat is tremendous.      Agreed 😊     Long sweet curls are one of those things I think I will like -- because I like them on other people -- but I don't like them on myself.  Or at least I don't for where I am in my villain journey.  At another time they would be fine.     Thanks!  Inertia is everything right now.     The road to epic-ness is definitely paved with doing the the thing when you don't want to do the thing.   I finally got caught up on sleep last night.  That makes such a huge difference in my day.  I am seeing a direct correlation between sleep and calories.  This is a thing I have known intellectually for a long time, but I am really starting to understand it.  I have also noticed that having a long quiet period in the morning does worlds for my anxiety levels throughout the day.  What does this mean?  This night owl needs to become an early bird 🙈   Goals are going well today and I am so happy that my mums are blooming and the critters don't eat them.  

Today at lunchtime, I made crackers, spicy ranch chips, and pumpkin-shaped ginger snaps.  (I had a bag of almond flour and two cookie cutters, and I went to town.) It took forrrrrever. But now I have crackers for a lunch cheese board, and cookies and coffee for dessert.     (Oh, look, a seasonal cheese board.)
