One of my little projects

Almost nine months ago I quit smoking and as a side affect I gained 20 pounds. As bad as that sound I needed the extra pounds. However I didn't need it all in my ass and thighs. So I am weeding out my closet. And this take time because you can never just look at a size in something and know if it's going to fit. (Example: I have two pairs of pants that are made my the same company and I bought them at the same time. But one is a 4 and the other is a 7.)  I don't mind a pair of tight jeans but when it looks like your thighs are going to burst out of jeans. I recommend moving up a size. And I know I have a few pairs that need to make there way to the give away box.

Hand Update: For the most part it is doing good. I still have some pain but if I don't use I don't have pain. I have stopped taking pain killer. I found it hurt less when I am not on pain killers because it forces me not to use that hand. I need it heal quickly. This whole not being able to do my normal exercise is really starting to get to me. I do head back to the doctor this week. So I am keeping my fingers crossed.

I feel so behind in getting a blog post up. Life has been keeping very busy but all in good way. Now I recently got myself an ipad to replace my laptop that had died. So I have been trying to figure out the best way to write on the ipad. I think I found the best way for now. With less than a month before my half marathon and trying to train in the Texas heat is a challenge. But getting out early and lots of water make it manageable. I am swimming on my cross train day and sometime on run days too. (I am already at the pool six days a week and it gives me something to do vs standing around for an hour.)  The garden is coming a long. I have twenty beds in area 66' x 7'. So I have a lot  of plants in the ground and still have some beds that I have not planted yet. But this Texas and I do have a long growing season. So they will end up with plants in them. My biggest concern with the garden right now is water. We are under tight  water restrictions . When the rules were made th...

One Hand

lavender Being one handed has slowed me down. Like how to write this post without the computer keyboard and I don't own a smartphone. But as you can see I figured out a way. The thing that gets to me the most is that I can't walk pace or jog. The doctor said no and it painful. Thankfully there is still yoga that I can do. I switched to little projects that can be done one handed. And there are plenty of them.  Since I put building the garden on hold. It has gone through a whole redesign. Before I was hoping to have room to grow a few extra plants and now I will have plenty of room. Check out My Garden page to see the redesign and other updates on the garden. The best thing over the weekend was. Having a friend come over to help me out with my housecleaning. She sweep, mopped, emptied the dishwasher, loaded the dishwasher, wiped down the counters and sweep the stairs. It was so nice to have them done. They were all things that needed to be done.
