I know you are expecting a What’s Blooming post, but it’s the end of the month and I needed to wrap this up before our trip!
I will share this cool cloud photo, though!
Here were my goals for August and how I did:
1. Cook some new Indian dishes. I was planning on doing 3, but only ended up doing 2. Chana Masala and the Aloo Gobi.
2. Lose 4 pounds – Nope. I lost 1, which is statistically a wash since it could be back up tomorrow. I have this maintenance thing down, but not the losing LOL! I was doing 4 no grain days a week and then the scale wasn’t moving, so I added grains to other days and dropped the pound this week. Go figure. 🙄
3. More strength training. I was not so good with this. I am just doing too much biking to really do much. I will just do lighter workouts and focus on heavier lifting when the biking season winds down.
4. Less complaining. I think I have been doing really well here. It helps that my work stress has gone down a lot lately.
5. Finishing up some projects. I didn’t finish too many projects. One was to make a houseplant area, which I have here.
The chest we open up twice a year, once to take out the good china for Christmas dinner and once to put it away, so I am using it for the base. I did find a use for that ammo box! 😀 I need to accessorize a little bit more with the white shelf, but it’s nice. John said it was like a plant shrine.
Can you believe we are on to September already??
