I have been actually able to LOSE weight & inches more so now then all the times I been going to the gym! I kid you not, keep reading for reasons why
But I have been keeping active with my Wii as well as stated above and actually keep better control of my food sizes/weighing stuff out then I have ever before.
Even with all the pizza, I've managed to make over the last almost 4 weeks I have had better success! I've even managed to break this 9-month long plateau! Which is amazing I can cry
I may stay home & do art as my main job (and reffing when I get my car back on track) but a housewife's job is never done, we never get a day off... as much as some think we do... we really don't.
Between all the cooking and cleaning and everything else... I have been able to accomplish more with house projects inside & out since all this started!
I haven't had the stress and panic of going to the gym, stores shopping once or twice a week to get fresh veggies and work on cleaning projects, food prep, and all the other projects I been trying to complete.
Because normally after the gym my energy is gone to shit & I don't feel like doing anything. I know to some it sounds crazy but my energy level after the gym is next to nothing because all the energy, blood, sweat & tears I put into my workouts.
I am the kinda person that stocks up when things are on sale so I didn't need to panic buy like so many people out there did.
My stress level has gone down BIG TIME, I still have some stress but yet my worry level is another story with Joel working at the hospital.
Every day after Joel gets done working I meet him at the door with gloves on every morning he gets home with a bowl with soap and water, even though he's hand sanitized his hands 10,000+ times at work and in the car and his hands being so dry and chapped he washes his hands and closes the door he puts his gun straps in the water and then he hands me his uniform, I place it in a trash bag and go put his jacket, gun, etc... aside in another room along with his boots, etc.
I then close the bag as I put it off into the washer. I open the shower door and grab him a towel just to be safer so he can hop in the shower. He always showered after work but not to this new degree of measures we take every day.
The yard work that I usually never did because it's just too much for me to do, I've been slowly working at it while the weather is nice... it didn't go from snow to hot as fuck this year so that is one awesome thing!
My front garden doesn't look like a big huge mess, the branches/trees/fence line in the backyard hasn't looked better, I mean still got more to do but because of the cold snap we just had my yard looks pretty bad back there with all the dead branches everywhere lol.
I've managed to pay off all my kitty vet bills & the stock of food I had to get them because with the COVID stuff ordering their food it takes 3-8 weeks to even get any pet food. Our vets thankfully have fluids/meds set to go when I need it. Not to mention some of the house repairs were able to get paid too.
I've been working on 3 baby blankets over this last month, not just doing one at a time, I been knitting for all 3 depending on which one I feel like doing at the present time, even though I don't know HOW I am going to get these blankets to each family while all this crazy crap is going on!
But I been able to do more stuff then just sit here and spend all my time gaming! Even though this weekend was a pretty big gaming weekend with Joel, we haven't done that in a while lol so it was a nice change
I have been able to get rid of a lot of clutter & organize much! Even though it doesn't look like I have done much but it's getting there, I promise!
We had our friends next door move to another state last week and new neighbors move in, which we haven't met yet obviously but... I have to say I just hope they are pretty awesome, yet I miss our other friends so much I've had 10 friends move recently and my heart hurts with so many friends moving and leaving
I know have a lot to be thankful for and blessed for, I know quarantine sucks I do miss my best friend Heather and other ppl we used to see and hang out with every now and then, seeing everyone at wrestling shows, basically all our friends we like being around, but once all this is over we are def gonna have to have a game night, bbq or something because I miss all of you so much
Now to go work on some more projects
