Monday was Monday, but we all got through, right?  After a couple weeks of not having our extended days on Monday, the school is back at it, so I worked from 8-4.  That's a lot for being constantly "on" with the children.  
 
When I got home, I whipped up some almond flour cheese biscuits (with mozzarella and penzeys seasonsed salt) to go with dinner.  Instead of six, I made 12 smaller.  I froze six after baking, had 2 with chicken and kale, and stored the four fresh.  While they were baking, I did a 30 minute workout from Datura.  Then I watched Victoria and knitted. 
 
My friend was supposed to come by and pick up the project that won't go away, but she was feeling sinus-y and croupy, so it's still here.
 
Today, 1.5 miles, and bf was a Simple Truth whey smoothie with 1 tbsp ketologie and 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk.  Lunch is deli ham with 1 slice Swiss and 1 tbsp mustard on a lc tortilla, with celery sticks and blackberries.  Snack is 1/4 cup pumpkin seed-pecan blend and 1/5 ES dark chocolate.   Dinner will be a chicken breast, kale, and 2 small almond flour biscuits.  

This week's agenda:  Google form still broken; sew cuffs on new pants, pin and take up old pants, trace for "master pattern."  Knitting and/or weaving (four rows here or there). 
 
Today is online office hours.  I think I would also like to try about 20ish minute of yoga or dance today, even though it's not my planned day.  I'm feeling not flexible/loose.

I only got some of my agenda things done this weekend, as I got hit with a surprise deadline for a project. (Backstory: a friend offered to do a thing for someone else *as a favor*.  The friend gave it to me, but said there was no rush, so I've been working on it on and off in between my stuff. Ffwd to now and the person is sending passive aggressive messages about said item which he is getting *for free*.  It still makes me feel like I look bad, when I was never even involved in this negotiation!) The resolution between my friend and me was that she would pick up this stuff from me and finish the construction and deal with the person.  I don't like to do my art projects halfway, so I worked on finishing the [embroidery](https://flic.kr/p/23oTa1W) Friday and Saturday. 
 
So, Friday was embroidery and RuPaul, Saturday I had a bridal shower to attend with yummy omelette and prosecco, then I came home to embroidery and season 2 of The Expanse.  I also managed to make some chicken and kale in the IP for precook, some conventional baked goods (frozen) for a SCA event, and knit through the lace mesh section on my shawl.  I didn't get my new SCA pants finished, but I did get my calf cuffs cut out and basted, and the legs gathered.
 
Today, 1.5 miles and bf was a smoothie made with Simple Truth whey protein (instead of Tera's whey) and 1 tablespoon of the Ketologie sample that was in KetoKrate.  I'm hoping that will give my smoothie more staying with me power.  Lunch is deli turkey and 1 slice Colby jack with 1/2 T chipotle avocado mayo on a lc tortilla, with celery sticks and 8 blackberries.  Snack is 1/4 cup of a mix of chili pumpkin seeds (from KetoKrate) and raw pecan pieces (I had some left from making a conventional recipe, and mixed the two together), and 1/5 ES dark chocolate.  Dinner will be the chicken and kale from my precook.
 
This week's agenda:  Google form still broken; sew cuffs on new pants, pin and take up old pants, trace for "master pattern."  Knitting and/or weaving (four rows here or there). Today is a Datura workout day!

I had language club day Tuesday, 3 hrs PT conferences yesterday, and there's a bridal shower for a friend Saturday (I'm looking forward to that one).  This friend of mine who is in grad school nearby came by yesterday for about a half hour to catch up because he hadn't seen me in a while.
 
It's something my SCA friends don't seem to get: the SCA is not my whole life (nothing wrong with that for those who do have it as their primary social!); I have other friends and work friends.  A lot of the SCA folks have been in so long, they think if they don't see you, you're hermitting at home.  Sometimes true, but sometimes I'm with others.  (Random thoughts.  Still tired.)
 
This morning, 1.65 miles, bf was keto granola and 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk.  I made Adagio's peach black tea today, with 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk and 2 tsp Torani sf 'brown sugar cinnamon.'  Lunch is a serving of turkey smoked sausage-cauliflower mac & cheese casserole, celery sticks, and 8 raspberries.  Snack is 1oz pistachios and 1/5 bar ES dark chocolate.  Dinner will either be a lc tortilla wrap, or scrambled eggs and green beans.
 
The weather isn't helping.  I think it was upper 40s all week until yesterday, when it was nearly 70°, and the cold from is moving through right now, in the process of dropping things 20 degrees.  I have four students out with confirmed flu, and two with colds (no fever).  
 
Weekend agenda:  Google form still broken; cut out calf cuffs on new pants, pin and take up old pants, trace for "master pattern."  Some knitting and weaving, a precook, and a Datura workout.

A friend invited me last minute for an outing last night, but I declined.  I note these because I want to be mindful that I'm not withdrawing and that I'm legitimately conserving energy, etc.  in this case, I thought, " long day Tuesday, long day Thursday, going out would mean no nap = Nope."  My friend is someone who doesn't always understand, either, and has manic upswings, so I'm watching that.
 
Anyway, I had my nap (yaaassss), got my workout on and did the remainder of Raq Steady session 1 from Datura, made a Valentine for Me dinner of almond butter and whipped cream cheese on a lc tortilla with raspberries on the side.  After school, I'd gone by Sprouts, and had found the Enlightened Ice Cream BARS, and had one for a treat.
 
I also sewed the elastic into my new pants and drafted the master pattern for the calf cuff, then watched some Olympics and knitted 2 rows in my shawl.  (I wanted to do four in a go, but I'm over 200 stitches and into the lace pattern now, so that's not so realistic.)
 
This morning, 1.5 miles on the treadmill, bf was keto granola and 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk.  No tea today, as it's going to be in the upper 60s, maybe even low 70s today.  Ridiculous.  Tomorrow, cold front.  More ridiculous.
 
Lunch is deli ham, 1 slice Swiss, and 1 tbsp stone ground mustard on a lc tortilla, with celery sticks and 8 blackberries.  Snack is .75oz jerky and 1/5 bar ES dark chocolate.  
 
There are parent teacher conferences after school for 3 hrs, so I anticipate buying a diet Dr Pepper for myself.  The principal has said she's going to buy us pizza, so I'm sticking a venison Epic bar in my purse.  I can eat the toppings/cheese off, but that's not quite enough food on its own.
 
I also bought myself some of that Tazo lemon loaf tea yesterday.  Maybe that when I get home?
 
Ongoing agenda:  Google form still broken; cut out calf cuffs on new pants, pin and take up old pants, trace for "master pattern."  I'd like to add knitting and weaving to this, but because of the conferences, I doubt I will do anything when I get home!

Got through yesterday with a little extra caffeine, which was good because when I went to Kroger to pick up the cake for the language club, they had not done it and had no record of it, and I had a very small window to get back to my morning school and do the inductions/meeting.  In fact, the decorator was about to go off her shift, and I'm lucky the bakery ladies caught her.  They pulled something from the case, wrote the inscription, threw some chocolate covered strawberries on it, and gave it to me for free.  Since I had a confirmation email, I knew something should have happened!  The club meeting went off without any more hitches, and I got some good pictures.
 
When I got home, I had online office hours and built some extra credit activities.  I quickly realized I wasn't going to get much more out of myself, so I changed gears to just finishing my miles on the treadmill and eating a serving of sausage cauliflower mac & cheese (cold), and reading while the Olympics were on.
 
This morning, 1.5 miles, bf was keto granola and 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk.  My tea this morning has 3/4 cup almond milk (1/2 in travel mug; 1/4 in mug right now) and 2.5 tsp sf Torani chocolate "for Valentine's Day."  Lunch is deli turkey, 1 slice Colby jack, 1/2 tbsp sarayo on a lc tortilla.  Snack is .8oz jerky and 1/5 bar ES dark chocolate.  Dinner will either be casserole or I might indulge in almond butter and sf jam on a lc tortilla.  
 
Today is my midweek self-care (I get to take a nap after school), which I'm excited about.  The extra long day yesterday and tomorrow (parent teacher conferences) wear me out.  
 
Ongoing agenda:  Google form still broken; sew waistband on new pants, pin and take up old pants, trace for "master pattern," and four rows of knitting or weaving.  Today is also a Datura workout day.

 Good Morning!
 
Got my car back, now with all new tires (got the previous two four months ago) and an oil change, so my wallet has the sads.  Came home, took a small rest, then laid out clothes, and did my Datura workout while heating up a serving of the sausage cauliflower mac & cheese and 1/2 cup green beans.  Towards sewing/crafting: I found an older pants attempt that I think I can salvage, so I spent my craft time ripping out the old waistband.
 
My Vornado space heater (which was 3-4 years old if not 4-5yo) died, so I ended up making a mug of hot water with half a nuun in it afterwards.  We are dealing with the near-but-not-freezing temps for short runs of days, followed by ridiculous 50-60° days.
 
I forgot my tea at home yesterday, so I reheated it today, but that mean no spare mug for me this morning!  I did 1.5 miles, then bf was 1 svg of keto granola and 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk.  Plus, I heated up 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk with a tsp of sf chocolate as a beverage.
 
Lunch is deli turkey and a slice of Colby jack with avocado mayo on a lc tortilla, and celery sticks on the side.  Snack is 0.8oz jerky and 1/5 ES dark chocolate.  Dinner will be a svg of cauliflower mac & cheese casserole and 1/2 cup green beans.
 
Ongoing agenda:  Google form still broken, language club induction after school (must pick up cake, plates, napkins after school), account; sew waistband on new pants, pin and take up old pants, trace for "master pattern," and four rows of knitting or weaving.

Tires

Feb. 12th, 2018 06:41 am
spidersweb1: (Default)
Last night, dad and I traded cars.  He is graciously dropping mine off at the mechanic this morning to get two new tires.  I'll pick it up this afternoon, then either mom or I will pick him up.  
 
I got lots of my agenda done: test pants sewn, new pants half sewn, some knitting done (got through to row 83), some weaving done (during Victoria last night).  No Datura done, so that's a goal for today.
 
This morning, 1.8 miles on the treadmill, bf was a serving of keto granola with .5 cup unsweetened almond milk.  1 pot of Adagio Cream tea with 3tsp sf vanilla and .5 cup unsweetened almond milk, split into ozark mug and regular mug.  I have discovered I like the almond milk in my tea better than hwc.  It tastes...mellower?
 
I used the hwc in the smoked sausage and cauliflower mac & cheese I made for my precook yesterday.  Lunch is deli ham & swiss on a lc tortilla with stone ground mustard, with celery sticks spread with a dip I made with .5 cup avocado mayo + .5 cup sour cream + 1tbsp penzeys buttermilk ranch seasoning.  Snack is the last 1/4 cup seed blend and 1/5 ES dark chocolate.
 
Dinner will be the mac & cheese casserole and some kind of green side.  Maybe a 1/2 cup green beans? Broccoli?
 
Agenda today: pick up car, pay for it, and weep over bank account; pick up dad; see if friend can fix google form (already emailed to her), sew waistband on pants, trace for "master pattern," do that Datura workout!
spidersweb1: (Default)
 Ah, I think SW is finally over, as I am down to flair weight today!

Stayed in last night, watched RuPaul, went to bed. Didn't watch any Olympics, which is a shame, but I'll watch some today maybe.

Got my grocery done, got the bulbs done, and started the merge on my google form. It's not sending the emails yet, but I have a few more things I can try. 

Remaining agenda: still haven't basted together sample pants, so that needs to happen; need to iron the hems into the Roman garb and sew it; knitting and weaving; sleep!

Adding: laundry, pull the plants back under the awning (I let them get rained on after planting as it's supposed to be a 24-36hr rain event), and a precook for the week (I bought cold cuts to have lc tortilla wraps for lunches, and I just made the granola for bfs, so I'm thinking of a smoked sausage-cauliflower "mac n cheese" casserole of some kind).

 TGIF!
 
The keto granola experiment was a success!  [I used this recipe](https://www.fatforweightloss.com.au/recipe/keto-granola/), but I change a few things.  I didn't use flaked almonds at all.  I used unsweetened shredded coconut instead of desiccated.  I used torani sugarfree "brown sugar cinnamon" instead of the sf maple syrup called for.  I added a scattering of salt.  I used coconut oil instead of MCT oil.  
 
When it was all done, I weighed it and divided by 7 to do servings.  MFP clocks it at 475 calories per serving (so it's a *dense* breakfast), but only 4 net carbs.
 
Today, 1.5 miles on the treadmill, then a serving of keto granola (this batch was 2.21oz per; I imagine you'd get small variances per batch) and a half cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk.  The tea is steeping, and will have its additions of 1 tbsp hwc and 2 tsp sf vanilla in the ozark mug, and 1 tsp hwc and .5 tsp sf vanilla in my mug.
 
Lunch is a serving of Egg Roll in a Bowl, and a Roam meat stick (from the Keto Krate).  Since the granola is mostly nuts, I'm forgoing nuts in my snack and adding a low carb tortilla with 2 tbsp whipped cream cheese to my lunch.  I'm keeping the 1/5 ES dark chocolate.
 
I've been invited to a Mardi Gras party tonight, but I already had some feels when I saw the FB invite: too much sugar, carbs, etc., and do I want to deal with things I cannot eat at the end of a work week?  So I only put "maybe" on the invite.  I'm leaning towards declining, then watching RuPaul's DRAS and maybe a little Olympics.  
 
I've mostly done extra treadmill this week, due to Shark Week and the overdoing, but I think I've settled on [Raq Steady as my next Datura Online course](https://daturaonline.com/raq-steady-overview).  The sessions are really long (1hr40+min) so I'm thinking I might split it up during the week to do the drills on one day and the choreography portion on the next.  I'm capable of adding my own warmup or cooldown as needed to accommodate that.  
 
Today and Weekend Agenda: A friend helped me fix the Google Form yesterday, so I'm now onto working with autoCrat to make it generate emails; still haven't basted together sample pants, so that *needs* to happen; need to iron the hems into the Roman garb and sew it; knitting and weaving; grocery shopping (eggs, cold cuts, pickles, pork rinds, celery, diet Dr Pepper); plant the bulbs I got for bday but have been in fridge; sleep!

Yesterday was far more on point.  I stayed on target, and in the way home, I went by Sprouts to get the ingredients for a keto granola recipe I want to try.  Then I went to walgreens and got my dermatological prescription. Then I got gas for the car.  I was so ready for my nap!
 
The nap itself would have been nicer if my neighbor's dogs had not been left out to bark their fool heads off.  I had scrambled eggs and sausage for dinner, watched x-files and knitted. 
 
Today, 1.5 miles on treadmill. Bf was Fage whole with 2 tsp ground flax, 2 tsp chia, 10 blueberries, and 1 tsp sf vanilla.  I also made my pot of cream tea with 1 Th and 1 tsp of hwc and 2.5 tsp sf vanilla (For the ozark travel mug, and remainder in my mug).  Lunch is a svg of Egg Roll in a Bowl, and a cold rotisserie chicken leg leftover from Sunday.  Snack is 1/4 cup of my seed-nut mix, and 1/5 ES dark chocolate.  I have one egg left, so I'm thinking of making a bf sandwich with a lc tortilla, some sausage, and cheese for dinner.
 
Agenda: figure out why the Google form isn't pulling the email addresses, online office hours, Datura workout, bake off the keto granola
 
spidersweb1: (Default)
 Well, we had big rain overnight, but temps that hovered just above freezing.  I'm a little sad because I was holding out a faint hope for a snow day.  Also, I don't like to teach with my coat on, but anything below 40°F (probably below 45°) outside and our buildings will not hold the heat.  (Old, original heating, and no drywall or insulation.)
 
Had an overeating moment last night.  Logged it.  Calories?  Way crazy.  Net Carbs?  Only at 42.  Took things in stride: immediately made lunch, bf, set up the tea pot, made myself another bottle of water, and put the muffins (the tempting culprits) into the freezer.  Then I got on the treadmill and did that, along with some yoga from Datura.  
 
This morning, 1.5 miles, bf was Fage whole with 2 tsp chia, 2 tsp ground flax, 10 blueberries, 1 tsp sf vanilla, plus half a lc tortilla with 1T whipped cream cheese.  I've made up a pot of [Adagio Cream tea](http://www.adagio.com/flavors/cream.html) with 2.5 tsp sf vanilla and 1Tbsp + 1tsp hwc.  The bulk of it is in my ozark mug for work, and the remainder is in the mug (that's where the .5tsp of sf vanilla and 1 tsp of hwc went) that I'm sipping now.
 
Lunch is a serving of Egg Roll in a Bowl, plus 4 cold shrimp leftover from dad's Sunday nibbles spread.  Snack is 1/4 cup pumpkin seed-cashew blend and 1/5 ES dark chocolate.  I'm thinking breakfast for dinner with scrambled eggs and sausage, probably with the other half of that lc tortilla.  If I want an afternoon snack, I have celery.
 
Agenda: must go by Walgreens and get my dermatology medicine. There should be no grease fires today, so then a self-care nap.  Today should be the day that Shark Week begins to wind down.  
spidersweb1: (Default)
Wanted to eat in excess tonight, and some of that has happened-- I had an extra half cup of pumpkin seeds and an extra muffin after dinner.  With calorie dense foods, that's a ton.  But I did this- I drew the line there, addressed factors (fatigue, my menstrual cycle, whether the muffins might be a trigger food), and then: made my lunch, set up the tea pot and travel mug for tomorrow, made my breakfast yogurt for tomorrow, and made another bottle of water.  Lastly, I put the remaining muffins in the freezer.  I hate waste, but I also can't chow in excess if they're rock hard, and it has to be a deliberate choice to get one out.  I don't own a microwave. 

Extinction bursts are hard for me, and it's usually a sign I've been letting carb creep happen.  This time I'm not sure it's that, but more the temptation to creep, combined with cycle and really good muffins (too good = I want too many).  But, dude, fighting against your primitive brain‽  Hard!

Now, I plan to take in my usual Tuesday show while on the treadmill.  It only "undoes" excess in the same way that "catching up on sleep" works, which is sort of but not really the way you want it to work.  But, it will give me a sense of equilibrium.

Mom messaged last night that since I spent part of Sunday crawling around under her furniture to help her find her Fitbit, she was offering to take me to dinner. So I had sashimi and a glass of prosecco and she had tempura dinner and prosecco. I also came home and ate an almond flour muffin. Shark week, I'm eyeing you.

Today, 1.43 on the treadmill, bf was 1 muffin, 4 oz Fage whole, 2 tsps chia, 2 tsps ground flax, 10 blueberries, 1 tsp sf vanilla. This was a big breakfast!

Lunch is 1 svg frittata in a lc tortilla, with celery. Snack is 1/4 cup pumpkin seed-cashew blend & 1/5 ES dark chocolate. Dinner is taco soup.

On the agenda is: online office hours, and plans to make the egg roll in a bowl before the broccoli slaw goes off. Datura workout, and then some crafting (I have a weaving project, a knitting project, and an embroidery project all "in progress," so getting any further work done is good). It feels like today would be a good day for attempting an earlier bed time.

Shark Week

Feb. 5th, 2018 12:25 pm
spidersweb1: (Default)
 

Shark week started, then sputtered and did nothing, and then came back with a vengeance late last night. My weight is up, cramps are going full swing, and bleh. And I can't decide to change my tracking app, because of the start-stop-start. I want a wRning for that nonsense!

Did 1.56 miles this morning, and bf was 2 almond flour muffins and a liter of fizzy water. Lunch is a serving of frittata on a lc tortilla, with celery, and another liter of water. Snack is 1/4 cup pumpkin seed-cashew blend, and 1/5 bar ES dark chocolate. I've got two clamshells of broccoli slaw and some ground pork to make egg roll in a bowl for dinner. (Or, what's more likely: make it, store it, and have leftover taco soup for dinner.). And more water.

I typically drink 3 liter a day, but I almost never include it with my food lists. So I'm making a token mention here on Monday. I make it fizzy with a SodaStream, and when it's cold weather, I drink the last liter as herbal tea. 

This week's frittata is 1 bag chopped spinach, 1 cup shredded cheese, 4 eggs, 6 sausage links cut in half. Plop into casserole dish, sprinkle with penzeys seasoned salt, back at 350° for 45min, turn oven off, bake for 15 min.

The almond flour muffins come from the Elana's Pantry recipe, using 1T swerve instead of honey.

Weekend was good. Friend's alterations done, SCA event half attended (which fit my schedule). It was too expensive for the type of event, but that's another debate. I'm now over peopled, and plan to hermit this week, but I think that will work with my schedule.

spidersweb1: (Default)
OKCupid date was not so good.  Not terrible, but he was late, and we were both done with dinner in under an hour, and then he suggested we split the check.  I think that's a pretty clear indication.  Anyhow, chalking it up and moving on.
 
Came home, rehashed with some gfs, made lunch and went to bed a bit early with the heated mattress pad on.  We had a big cold front come through, and the cat was under that comforter before I turned the lights out.  
 
Did just 1.25 miles this morning, as I'll finish up this afternoon while I watch RuPaul's DGAS.  Breakfast was the frittata, on a lc tortilla with 2T whipped cream cheese.  Lunch is a serving of taco soup and a cup of smashed cauliflower (I didn't want to "make" any lunch last night and grabbed leftovers).  Snack is 1/4 cup pumpkin seed-cashew blend and 1/5 ES dark chocolate.  Dinner will probably be scrambled eggs.
 
Tomorrow there is a SCA day event.  I don't particularly want to get up early to go to it, but I'm going to talk it out with my friends-- either go early and leave after lunch or come late just for court.  Having had Shark Week juuuust arrive today does not help.  Sunday, is altering a dress with 2 gfs, then back to those lesson plans.

Undersold myself on water last night (not dangerously), so I would be sure to sleep brought the night. Ahhhh! 😍 I missed a chance to nap yesterday because I had to put out a family grease fire and it took almost two hours. Gah. So, the night sleep was needed. Ate my taco soup with cauliflower, did my last Datura workout for the course, watched X-files, made lunch, bed by 9:50.

Today, 1.45 miles, bf was frittata & celery with 2 tsps of homemade dip (1/2 cup sour cream + 1/2 cup avocado mayo + 1T penzeys ranch spice mix). Lunch is 2oz cranberry sage turkey on lc tortilla with 1/2 T avo mayo and celery sticks. Snack is 1/4 cup pumpkin seed-cashews blend and 1/5 ES dark chocolate. I might add some Dixons pork rinds from the vending machine (116 cals, 9g protein, 1 carb) to lunch. Dinner will be sushi out with an OKCupid date. Meh.

My agenda of things to do basically hasn't changed since it got derailed yesterday, but I'm not particularly interested in it right now. I've got online office hours again today, and then I'll have to go to this dinner date. I doubt I'll do much when I get home other than watch a tle tv, make lunch, and go to bed.

Made mashed cauliflower to go with the taco soup last night and then drank a pot of herbal tea. Gotta stop doing that so late-- tired of getting up in the night. Also got in another mile and did the next Datura workout.

This morning 1.25 miles, then bf of frittata and a lc tortilla with 2T whipped cream cheese. Lunch is 2oz Sprouts buffalo chicken on a lc tortilla (I'm on a kick at the moment, so I got the smallest size LaTortilla factory makes) with celery sticks. Snack is 1/4 cup pumpkin seed-cashew pcs blend, and 1/5 ES dark chocolate. Dinner will be taco soup from LCY, but not sure of what side yet.

Agenda today: quick grocery stop (sale day), last Datura workout for this course, a nap for self care, either weaving or knitting, maybe baste those pants?

spidersweb1: (Default)
I don't think I'm cut out for workout videos at 5:30 am.  (The summer is different, and it's not Stupid O'clock then, either.)
 
1.6 Miles this morning, then a serving of frittata and (I attempted a) toasted small lc tortilla with whipped cream cheese.  I burned it in the toaster (less time next time).  Ate anyway.  
 
Lunch is Sprouts Buffalo chicken deli meat on another small lc tortilla and celery sticks.  Snack is 1/4 cup pumpkin seed-cashew pieces and 1/5 ES dark chocolate.  Dinner will be taco soup from low carb yum, tea, and maybe a little cauliflower.
 
The last Beowulf class was good (maybe slightly less fun than the first?).  Anyhow, I got in and managed to get that second Datura workout in, so I can try to finish this course "on time."  
 
Other agenda: online office hours, Google form project for work, weaving the 2" I want to, quickly basting the pants together, going to bed at 9:30 (#goals)
spidersweb1: (Default)
 (I only have two) and found a snag/hole in it, so I lost a precious couple of minutes this morning darning it up.  So I lost my usual posting time.
 
I did my Datura online workout this morning instead of treadmill time as an experiment.  The jury is not looking favorably here-- I'm not sure it's all that useful to try to follow a routine/choreography at 5:30 am.  
 
Bf was a Tera's Whey smoothie, lunch was cranberry-sage turkey and colby jack (2oz + 1oz) and 1 tsp Sarayo on a lc tortilla, with celery sticks.  Snack was the pumpkin seed-cashew pieces blend and 1/5 bar ES dark chocolate.  After school, I'll have some almonds and mom's making us wraps again for our second (and final) Beowulf class.  
 
I don't think I'll get any crafting done when I get home tonight, but I am hoping to do the next Datura workout (that's in this particular series) because it's a yoga-conditioning one.  I'd rather wanted to finish it by the end of January, and I can just manage it if I do this one tonight, and one each the next two days.
 
I did get my 8 rows of knitting done this weekend.  I'm making [this shawl](https://images4-b.ravelrycache.com/uploads/jaaladay/416691561/KindnessBestM_medium2.jpg) and it's my first time doing lace work that wasn't just yarnovers in a netting sort of pattern.  I'm now at a stupid number of stitches, so I might need to lower the number of rows I think I'll get done.
 
No weaving accomplished, but I did make the taco soup and an oven frittata.  I also did the laundry, washed the dishes (and unloaded them!  Who am I?), ironed all the linen for my and my friend's SCA garb, and ironed and cut out a test pair of pants out of muslin.
 
There was also Halo Top fueling this, so take it FWIW.  My weight dropped from the bad-sleep uptick, and is only up 1# from flair.  I hope to take care of that this week.
