I'm emotionally spent today from various things going on and decided I needed a mental health night for my sanity. So I'm sitting on the couch by the tree chilling while Chris is out with a friend and the kids are in bed. It was a busy and productive day of baking, laundry, grocery shopping, cooking, painting Brit's nails, and getting ready for a dinner with friends tonight. The kids and I had a blast (Chris had to work late, boo!). Considering the amazing choices of food at the party, I counted everything I ate but still went over about 450 calories today. I guess I'll consider this my cheat day. Normally, I would stand over the chips and dip and go to town but I didn't. And I stayed away from the cookies and other goodies. I realize that a good chunk of my calories came from soda and other drinks...something I need to be more aware of.
Goals met today: NONE....but I'm not discouraged nor am I ready to throw in the towel.
Calories: over by 450
Workout: took the night off
Abundance is...baking with Britain.

Quotes
"I've found that when life's brush obscures my view with gloomy strokes that seem to mar the scene, God's hand appears and gives to sunless hue and dreary skies a more majestic sheen." Gustafson
About Me
- Brooke
- Hi there, Let me tell you a little bit about this FRUGALadee. My sweet husband and I have been married for 9 years and have two amazing little ones - ages 4 and 2. We are fostering our 2 year old little boy in hopes of adopting. It's a long process but I'm trusting God as we wait. By day, I work as an Office Manager at a counseling organization and the rest of the time I manage our home. In my spare time (ha!), I'm a professional organizer. I am learning to live in the moments (instead of the past or worrying about the future) and revel in God's unexpected blessings TODAY! While I don't reuse paper plates or line dry our clothes, we're doing what's needed and best in this season of our lives. I'm always looking for new creative ways to save...time & money.
