This week came with some very tragic news in my family and so it seems a little weird to have spent the week posting about exercise and food. However, dealing with the death of someone in your life seems to maybe be tempered a bit by continuing a familiar routine and reminding those around you to continue a routine–continuing to eat, continuing to exercise, and continuing to do whatever characterizes the mundane, day-to-day activities of your life.
Monday October 3: A recap of the Northwest Tea Festival, which we attended last Sunday. It was quite delightful and we have spent the remainder of the week enjoying our spoils from the festival.
Tuesday October 4: Congrats to Holly on winning the giveaway of The Pig Who Sang to the Moon! Eric was craving chicken soup with orzo, so I made up a Not-Chicken Noodle Soup, which we ate for three nights in a row and was warm and comforting.
Wednesday October 5: A very exciting law suit against Big Dairy charging dairy companies in California with slaughtering 500,000 healthy cows in order to drive up the price of milk. Definitely something to keep track of in the coming months.
Thursday October 6: Ok guys, please help me out here!! I’m about 55% to my goal of fundraising for Farm Sanctuary and there are just two weeks left until the Walk for Farm Animals! I’d be so grateful for any help at all you’re able to give!
Friday October 7: I finally got it together to write a post about my current workout routine. This workout routine has definitely helped me stay sane through all the ups and downs.
Hope you’ve all had a good weekend.
