Looking forward to a good day today!  It's my last day off work (start back next week working from home).  I have a long walk planned for this morning, then a pedicure with my Mom (she is treating me - so nice of her!), and then she's taking the kids overnight so HB and I can go to a movie.

Good Morning Ladies and Happy Friday!

Not much going on today. My friend and I are going to beading class today. I'm into making the Shamballa Bracelets days, lots of fun

B- decaf coffee X 2 then Banana dipped him hemp hearts (not together with coffee)

L- 1/2 of a 1/2 of a Subway sub

D- checken with small potato and green beans

 

Skipping snacks today as I ate the lions share of Jube-jubes  yesterday. Might have fruit if I get hungry

I had to look up what Shamballa bracelets looked like - gorgeous! Have fun, Ann!

Thanks Karen. I made a beautiful sapphire blue and light blue crystal one Sunday when we went.

My friend has been making them and selling them to her coworkers. She works in a large insurance firm so once someone buys something everyone wants in on the action. My jewelry making addiction started last year when I wanted to make a bracelet for my medical ID tag. Now I am doing wire wrap, making earrings, chainmaille etc. The newest is the Shamballa bracelets.

OH gawd, that sounds lovely!  I am really interested in learning jewelry making but can't seem to find a place (other than the Living Arts Centre, which is hugely expensive) that provides classes at a REASONABLE price.  I'll have to keep looking around!

I find it very calming. I seem to lose myself when I am doing it. I would suggest asking at your local Michael's store. They would have a real good idea where the bead stores are in your area. Most shops offer classes. I wish you where closer we could go together. Its a lot of fun and I always meet interesting people when I go.

The Shamballa bracelets are so easy to make. If you know how to macrame then half the battle is won. Youtube has excellent videos if you want to take a peek. 

Yes, I looked up Michael's and they do run 2 hour classes on specific techniques/topics.  I will look into bead stores though - I'd like something a little more in-depth.  Thanks Ann!

So I raced home from work last night, jumped on my bike and spent 2 hours pedalling furiously up and own the hills of the Humber River valley.

My ass is so sore today, but this was totally worth it. I really needed to make up for a couple of days of inactivity.

 B - bowl of muesli w 1/2 banana, large coffee

 S - 1% cottage cheese w strawberry pieces

 L - leftover lamb burger (no bun) and roasted root vegetables

 S - 1 pear, 2nd coffee

Swimming (aquafit) on Saturday morning, hiking on Sunday (in the rain likely).

What is a "Protein coffee" exactly?
