Looking Back at the Month of January and the beginning of February...

I have been up and down in the last month-ish.  I haven't let go of my goal of losing 52 pounds this year.  I've lost 1.6 pounds so far this year.  If I continue to lose about 1.2 pounds each week for the remainder of the year then I should still be at my goal by January 1, 2013.

I now know what is going on with my shoulder which is definitely something!  I have adhesive capsulitis also known as frozen shoulder.  It has gotten me down recently.  Between the shoulder pain and the not feeling so good for the last couple of weeks.  I have been focusing on what I can't do instead of what I can do.  If I want to hit my goal, it's time to quit feeling sorry for myself that I can't do like yoga and focus on the things that I can.  I can still walk, I can still go do Zumba just minus the arm movements, I can still dance, etc.

I can do this.  One day at a time.  I am worth this.  I am worth the time and the effort to get this done.  I am worth the time it takes to track and to get up early and walk, etc.  I am worth taking care of myself.

What's Cooking Wednesday, May 7, 2025

I hesitate to even call this a recipe.  I have been making this super easy, but versatile recipe for years.  My ex-grandmother-in-law made hers spicier, but for my young one (at the time I started making this) wasn't a fan of spicy foods.  So I created a cheeseburger variety of the meat pie.  It's simply Grands biscuits, hamburger meat and cheese.  I believe she used the standard biscuit, but I have been using Grands for years.  You can absolutely change this up to use different ingredients, but it's a family favorite so I haven't changed it much.  I may do a different variety soon to bring to you!   You can watch the video here:  YouTube

Savings Saturday, May 3rd

 As we are trying to drill down on our budget and add to our savings, I decided to have a little fun with it.  We headed to Barnes & Noble and purchased 2 Word Find books, one is 365 Days of Puzzles and the other is a book of Bible Puzzles.  The 365 Puzzle book is pretty interesting in that it varies in topic.  My puzzles for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week were:  Monday: Disco [Puzzle 50], I found 10 words in 6 minutes. Tuesday: Quantum Mechanics [Puzzle 192], 5 words in 4 minutes. Wednesday: Languages of Africa [Puzzle 299], 6 words in 4 minutes. So my total to go into savings for the first week: $21.00 Savings Total for this challenge: $21.00. I have decided to only do a puzzle on the weekdays, but not the weekends for this challenge.  Why?  Being honest, there are some days/some weeks, like end of the month that get a bit overwhelming.  Only doing a puzzle 5 days per week, gives me an opportunity to do one on the weekend if the ...
