Making the Best of It...

Hello everyone. Thursday was one of the "better days" I have had in a long bit.

(INSERT- I am not getting updated reading list for the blogs I follow. Is anyone else experiencing this?)

I started the day with some sunlight (my Vit D is low) and a yummy yogurt bowl. I am trying to eat cleaner.... YOU ALL I WILL NOT BE PERFECT AT ALL..... one little thing at a time. You will see below that I will not be perfect. 

I figure I will try to make my breakfast the meal I will focus on for now. Per doctor suggestions I made this bowl.

It was a nice sunny day! I forgot how much I love to eat outside. It was such a nice treat to do this today.

I also got to take a slow walk around the yard to look at some of my flowers and beds. They are in need of much love this year, but it simply will not be the SEASON for me to do that. I will do the best I can and there are always other years (hopefully) to have the put together pretty landscaping. This will not be the year. 

My grandmother loved Lantana. This is the first year I have bought it. I am excited to watch it grow.

After my outside time I was feeling a little winded and tired; mind you I had only been up maybe an hour. I am, however, trying to listen to my body and rest when it says so. I am listening to the whole Bible in 30 Days. After I listened to some chapters, I popped in blog land to check comments and visit some blogs.

Then it was time to get up and move a little. Due to the medications, I am on and the constant resting, preventing blood clots is a priority due to my medical history. 

I found this nice simple 10-minute chair exercise video for Seniors. No, I am not a senior. I often giggle because I always do senior videos; I find them enjoyable and easier on the joints. 

I really like this lady and here is the 10-minute video I did. Yes, it is easy and yes, it isn't going to change me physically, but I am doing it for circulation and light movement. 

This lady has more than just chair workouts and has them for many different ages and levels. I highly recommend her videos.

I had this light little snack pack for lunch. I normally do not buy these types of things, but I need quick little things to grab right now. It was actually very good.

I have been trying to eat more whole foods lately. This was nice though. I enjoyed it. 

I also paired it with some cucumbers sprinkled with nothing but the bagel seasoning. I love this time of year. I love tomatoes, cucumbers and fresh veggies and fruit. 

HAH! I wrapped (literally) my day up with a moisture sheet mask. I will tell you this was super hard to put on and still couldn't get it to line up right. It did however feel super refreshing to my face. 

So, as you can see, I am MAKING THE BEST of this RESTING thing. LOL! Eating better foods, refreshing mask, getting some sun and taking things light and easy. 

Anyhoo.. Until Next Time,
