So thus far my day has consisted of about three things. None of which do I find all that much enjoyable, especially in large doses.
1. Dealing with a cranky child.
Keira did not nap at KDO yesterday and we are paying the price. She normally loves to go to the gym, but flipped out this morning when I told her it was time to go crying hysterically. We did not go to the gym. She started asking if it was naptime at 10:00 - I was tempted to let her.
2. Cooking
We made muffins this morning to try to get us all in a good mood. It worked for a little bit. I made Bran Flax Muffins. They are super yummy. I know they don't sound all that great, but they are really good. I have been on a health kick - trying to make sure we all get enough protein, fiber and fruits and veggies. The recipe made 24 muffins, so I froze 18 and kept the rest out for us to eat this week. I made a couple of modifications - used whole wheat flour, substituted oats for oat bran, added an extra TBS of cinnamon, and left out the oil, nuts and raisins (wade doesn't like them). Here's the link to the recipe.
I also made 4 batches of White Chicken Chili for an upcoming meal swap and also for dinner tonight. As always, I am really looking forward to the meal swap.
3. Exercising
Since I didn't make it to the gym, I have been working out at home while Keira naps (and so help me if she does not nap for about 3 hours). I highly recommend this work out by Jillian Michaels. It's only 20 minutes, but it will kick your butt. And bonus, it's on Comcast On Demand right now, so it was free! Also did some Wii fit. Not a replacement for the hour I had planned at the gym, but life doesn't always go the way we plan now does it?!?
