I feel like my time for exercise is limited as it is so I need to use that time for calorie-burning activities. Yet I feel like yoga would help with my balance and core, which are suffering right now. I even bought a yoga mat but it hasn't inspired me.<br /><br />And gardening! I have tried so many times and I am horrible at it. I have whatever the opposite of a green thumb is...a black or gray thumb, I suppose. We decided to experiment with only TWO plants this year to see if we could keep them alive and so far one of them is already dead. Yet I love the idea of walking outside and eating fresh garden produce.<br /><br />The other thing I would add to my list is that I wish I were the type of person that didn't want to drink a diet coke every single day. Especially since Henry is getting old enough to notice, I don't want him to think it's OK to drink soda all the time. <br /><br />p.s. I am not a huge salad fan either but I find that if I add fruit, cheese, and nuts to the greens and use a sweet dressing (poppyseed or a honey vinaigrette) it makes a yummy combo.Solveig Atwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01282217576305846194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805451468156722184.post-43393780737873126902012-06-12T17:50:35.200-04:002012-06-12T17:50:35.200-04:00I have been to a few yoga classes and I do know wh...I have been to a few yoga classes and I do know what you mean! I didn't feel like it was really doing a ton for me, although I know it would help with my back. That's why I went one time. <br /><br />I feel like I should be better about reading books to my kids and taking more time to "teach" them things. We read books at night and sometimes in the day, but I think I should do better. But I just don't very often. I wish this summer I would be better about doing some sort of school with them. Obviously I have a newborn, so that makes it a bit harder, but I still could find time, yet I haven't! <br /><br />And yes, the cross-eyed thing is weird for sure. I wish they wouldn't do it!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12209025319812894625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805451468156722184.post-25333306969046416012012-06-11T21:36:18.598-04:002012-06-11T21:36:18.598-04:00ooops, i don't know why ben is logged in! fun...ooops, i don't know why ben is logged in! funny!Ben Maxwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09699110907707233007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805451468156722184.post-22703137580922815872012-06-11T21:35:32.336-04:002012-06-11T21:35:32.336-04:00you're funny. there's lots of things i fe...you're funny. there's lots of things i feel like i should WANT to be doing. . . but i don't want to think about them! :)<br /><br />hmmm, maybe hiking more. i feel like i used to be "outdoorsy" but not so much anymore. i still claim to be a hiker, but the last time i went on a real hike (ahem, sans kids) was waaaaay long ago.Ben Maxwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09699110907707233007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805451468156722184.post-72822312569776565172012-06-11T21:11:55.507-04:002012-06-11T21:11:55.507-04:00I've tried many times to get into yoga but I j...I've tried many times to get into yoga but I just can't do it. <br />Seriously, you should at least do the pumpkins. We don't even have a garden but we threw some seeds into the ground and when all we really have to do is water, it's kinda cool to get cute little pumpkins come fall. <br />And I love salad, but have I ever made salad for a dinner time meal? Nope. Unless you count Cafe Rio salad.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09136480719990550856noreply@blogger.com
