hello!

So apparently I can't work and blog at the same time.
It's impossible.
 
Ok.  Not really, but sitting down at another computer after being at a computer all day really is about the last thing I want to do.
 
And I only have, like, 4 hours between school pick up and bedtime to:
do homework
cook dinner (more on that in a minute)
tidy up
bath time
actually play with her
read books for school
etc...
Don't even get me started on art and gymnastics nights.
 
The only reason it is happening now is because we have a snow day and I have taken the day to stay home with her.
And loving every single second.
It is 6 degrees right now.
6.
 
There.  Am I forgiven for not blogging?
Ok.  Good.
Let's move on.
 
 
Cooking.
 
I have been lately. 
Really good stuff.
Like:
 
Prosciutto-Wrapped Shrimp with Arugula Salad Recipe
 
and
 
Mozzarella-Stuffed Turkey Burgers Recipe
 
and
 
Wok-Seared Chicken Tenders with Asparagus & Pistachios Recipe
 
I don't know who has jumped into my body and started meal planning and cooking, but I really like her.
She is the bomb diggidty.
 
 
Exercising
 
I'm doing that too.
I signed up for my second half marathon.
I really don't know what I was thinking.
Except that maybe I need to move my body more, and this will guarantee that.
Or maybe it is the fact that it is in Canada and ends at a winery?
You be the judge.
 
 
Reading
 
I am not doing that very much.
And that makes me sad.
 
So there.
You are mostly caught up.
 
And where did this tiny little thing go?
I miss her.
