Hump Day Poll

Good day to you all on this last Wednesday of August!   We have been in the declutter mindset but many of you know I get overwhelmed by where the heck to start because of our small, less than 1000 sq ft abode.  I've gotten help from things like sliding baskets in cabinets, little things that help with space like mug stackers for mugs,  and of course little pantries to be able to stock up on stable stuff when sales roll around.   Those things help when you've got a home in mind but for me, it's how to mentally push myself to start because it all looks so untacklable.  (New word alert.)   One of the best pieces of advice I ever got on that front was from my friend who said to tackle one small section at a time.  Like, say in your kitchen - do 1/4 of the total countertop area.  If you do more than that, all the better but you don't have to do anymore than a 12" space at a time.   I've also heard setting a timer for 10 minu...

Pop a squat

Yesterday was a nice, successful day one for doing my 10 squats at the top of the hour.  I will admit, I got behind about midday because I was in a zone working (which paid off later with a Zazzle "Today's Best Pick"...go moi!)  So there was one point where I had to make up 30 in a row but that's okay with me as long as I got the 100 in.  Honestly, it helped alot with the lower back pain I'm having from my bed.  (Dang thing is like 2 years old and already giving me back problems no matter how many times I rotate it or whatnot.  Boo!)  I've got 20 under my belt so far this morning and again it's helping with the lower back pain so I'm gonna stick with it.  I know it doesn't sound like much but if you figure that if someone asked you to give them 100 squats, you'd groan just a little on the inside.  By breaking it up it feels like "is that all you got?"  Who knows, I might sneak a couple extra in here and there. 

Looking forward to chicken tacos tonight.  I'm a big cheese person but I love that I don't even need cheese on these, it tastes like it's already there!  It's the creamy texture of the hummus that makes it feel like it's there.  I sub spinach for lettuce and still add the onion.  So I'll have to whip out my handy dandy onion goggles (yes, they really work!  I was skeptical too!) and cut those up later.  Maybe I'll keep half raw and carmelize the other half if I'm feeling ambitious.  So perhaps y'all will have a new recipe to look forward to tomorrow!  (Of course I pretty much just gave you the recipe.  D'oh!)

Have a great one everybody!

    Goodness that sounds tasty! I LOVE LOVE LOVE cheese. Seriously it is my favorite food group in the world, ok not that it is a food group but it should be. I'm interested to hear about how the recipe turns out, oh and it in general so I can make it myself :)

    Good job on the squats! It sure adds up doesn't it. Glad it is helping with the back pain
