Day 4 and day 5

I forgot to write yesterday, I had the day off but I completely forgot!
I went up in the Rattlesnake and went on a little walk until I found a quaint little spot down the creek where I could be alone and journal. I wrote some lyrics as well. I taped a hoop (rather poorly) for my students, I need to make about ten more for beginners. I will be teaching at the Salvation Army Teen Center next weekend or I might be teaching yoga. I will also be teaching my first yoga class at the jail!! I am really excited, this yoga class is something I will be good at - easy, gentle yoga poses.

 I still need to record my script for yoga teacher training, but the good news is I wrote the rest of my script yesterday and now I just need to record it! I am going to do my own class once I record it so that I know it works well and is easy to follow. I feel very happy that I am getting back into my yoga practice. It sucks that I bought that hot yoga membership and then got this tattoo. I wasn't thinking about that, I'm not supposed to get it wet and I sweat A LOT in hot yoga. I swear I am the sweatiest person in there. But I also usually get there just in the nick of time and then the only open spots are right next to the heaters.

I felt kind of off yesterday, I felt nauseous and exhausted. Probably from working too much last weekend, I worked my first double on Sunday. I served from 7-3:30 and then I was the Server Assistant from 4-8:30. It was a really long day. I was kind of down in the dumps yesterday, I can't really pinpoint why. I did manage to water my garden plot and all of Haley's plants too, as well as do my laundry and use the sprinkler to water the lawn. Which remind me, I need to water my plot today, as well as finish watering the lawn. We also need to start thinking about buying a lawnmower. I might go to Wal Mart later and check them out, I might buy printer ink as well, so I can print out my yoga script.

I did a little bit of hula hooping yesterday but I really wasn't feeling well so I didn't do as much as I would have liked. I felt proud that I did any hooping at all.

Yesterdays food intake: almond milk latte, some leftover pesto pasta, small salad from the GFS with lemon tahini dressing, veggie burger on whole wheat bun with lots of ketchup, one vegan brownie

Today I woke up late and I wasn't able to eat breakfast, I pretty much just went straight to work. I had some coffee while I was there, I brought some hemp milk/coconut milk creamer. I didn't have any time to eat yet, I wasn't very hungry when I was so busy. I was thinking I can warm up some of the pesto pasta and have that. And later I was thinking I could buy some groceries and make curry with basmati rice. I would really like the naan but I am trying not to eat white bread, but it sooo hard not to eat naan!

I will probably have another vegan brownie for dessert, considering that I already have one sitting on my desk that I bought yesterday.

My planned activities include watering my garden and Haleys garden, going to wal mart to get printer ink, watering the lawn, hula hooping at the park.

Its hard to train when I work so much, I am going to focus on hula hooping for now and I think I might go for a run later, if I can find my other running shoe.

I might do some strength training exercises and drills as well.

I will keep this updated on what I actually do! To be continued....



Update: 7:42pm
I just got home from the good food store. I ate the leftover pesto pasta and then went to wal mart to buy ink for my printer. I was originally going to go to Natural Grocery but I found out they were closed for the 4th of July so I went to the Good Food Store instead. I only planned on buying a few things, but of course I always end up spending more somehow. I bought a chocolate banana almond butter smoothie and it was soooo good and refreshing that I bought the ingredients to make another one at home. Of course raw almond butter is like $15. And I needed to buy cacao, which was another $10 in itself. I also bought some stuff for curry, and I ended up buying the Naan. Whatever. I love Naan and it makes me pretty damn happy so i'll be damned if I am not gonna eat it with my Indian food.

I came home and made a duplicate smoothie with banana, hemp milk, cacao, raw almond butter, and a tiny bit of honey. Wow.. soooooooo goood!!! It was better than the one I bought from the GFS. I have a feeling this smoothie will be making an appearance in my diet quite a bit this summer.

So I am planning on making the curry later after I water the garden plots. Then I am going to record my yoga sequence. I plan on hula hooping when I go out to water the garden, at least run some drills.

I will keep you posted...
