eating better

Hello world,

You are what you eat. Have you seen that commercial where the kids are playing soccer but they can't run very fast because they're a burger or a thing of fries?? That commercial is so true!! We've been eating better this whole week and I feel great! Even in this short amount of time. I have taken the time to cook for pretty much every meal this week, and if I haven't Robert has. Or we have just had sandwiches with meat from the deli. I don't know if Deli lunch meat is better for you... but it tastes better haha.

Some of the meals we have made are Smashed Potato Pot Pie, Bleu Cheese burgers and zucchini sticks, and last night we had chicken and apple sausages and garlic sage zucchini. It's been fun cooking it and fun eating it! Tonight I'm going to make a spinach lasagna again.

I've been doing zumba this week, and I was right about one of the things I hoped for. I hoped for it to be easier to do and easier to move. It's definitely getting easier to do - but I still suck at dancing haha. Maybe that comes with a little more time.

The decluttering has come to a stop without those shelves to spread my stuff out. I don't feel I should have to downsize anymore, I just need to maximize the space better. And you need money to do that.. So.. Here we are!

Now here is my next concern. I'm totally kicking butt on the cooking thing, the cleaning thing, the laundry, and just pretty much everything house being awesome - however I fear this will all go out the window when school starts. Because that's what happened last year. School makes me lazy at home. I'm most definitely not lazy at school. I work my butt off - and it drains me. Mostly the hour ride home tops everything off and leaves me with little when I get home. However, I didn't do the eat better and exercise thing last summer. So maybe if I keep that part up my energy will go up as well, and school won't beat me down as much. We will see. I have about a month. Well not even. I'm teaching a summer camp the last few days of July to make some extra cash to pay off the new awesome furniture we got!

So here's to keeping up the new lifestyle!

Life's too short to have too much stuff,
