so i know i dont have to blog every day. but it is nice to do this for two days in a row and not every three months. with that being said....im up and almost 12:30 am. not a time i want to be up.
I came home after 5 eat a snack of green yummy juicy sweet grapes, a protein shake that pretty much tastes like a chocolate milk shake, cauliflower nacho flavored chips I'm obsessed with from Aldi's and watched glow up on Netflix that I started last night. its a makeup artists (MUA) competition show set somewhere in England. I got really tired so I paused the tv and went to bed. I fell asleep for a bit and when I woke up even though I was very glad that I got some rest, I was annoyed that it cut into my chore time.
oh well. so I proceeded to do my chores which included using my citrus juicer to squeeze my lemons to freeze them in ice trays for teas and my kale smoothies and cut and freeze some ginger for my strawberry/banana smoothies.
so that was done! good. progress. I didn't do dishes which is a habit I try and do every night. but because of my little impromptu nap I just couldn't swing it. instead I made a small snacky dinner of grapes and a kale/lemon juice/blueberries smoothie and retreated to my room. I watched a few YouTube vides self improvement one of which was with Mark Manson. meanwhile I was doing my coloring exercise which I really got into. I thought to my self that I should blog afterwards. and so that's how I got here! before I go to bed I would like to do my tai chi evening module, stretch and meditate but after a nice much needed shower after such a hot sweaty day
my gym workout was very hard today. I felt very fatigued and I even at one point got dizzy. I'm so glad I went and I plan on going tomorrow. I like to get my gym bag ready in the evening the day before to avoid stress, but its late and I'm trying to wind down.
after the gym i went to the good old Evanston public library. I borrowed one of there study rooms to make some phone calls with some questions and concerns I had with my phone company and this mail I got about a government stimulus check that I'm supposed to get. I hate dealing with "businessy" stuff like that. but I did it.
meanwhile it is getting later and later and i still have things I would like to do before laying down in bed. I'm still learning how to manage my new very important routines. most of the time it is very overwhelming. I'm hoping one of these days soon it'll become easier. I may to go back to IMU to meditate in the morning so I don't even know how much sleep I will actually get. bye for now
