Abs in Gate C2

Having a long travel day can be a little relaxing. Forcing one to not really do anything but sit.

I started my day in Horsham, PA at 12:54 and boarded a train to Philadelphia. I was able to get a little snooze in before I had to change trains in center city to PHL. Once there I got off at the wrong stop so i had a little longer of a walk which is no problem for me considering I need the exercise, especially if Ill be sitting for most of the afternoon!

I got on my first flight to ATL where I sit now. I was hoping to see some friends but some are busy, others are not around but thats ok, I was able to do some more walking in this gigantic airport and grab a delicious falafel wrap and smoothie for dinner. I also decided I need to do some more moving and have been neglecting my abs workout. So, I found a somewhat secluded spot in my gate and called up my workout buddy. We did some pushups and planks which got my heart pumping and felt great. It wasn't awkward until some woman sat right next to where I was exercising even though there was a ton of open space. I felt like she was just using me as entertainment while she ate her dinner.

I love having time to just sit and use the time for myself. I feel more productive online and while in the air, I'm forced to listen to music, read a book or take a much needed nap.

Im also using this time to study up on Thailand! Ty and I are headed there after the holiday and I couldn't be more excited for the sun/warmpth! Especially after hearing its 19 degrees in northern WI... I can speak for both Ty and I when I say, we HATE being cold :(

Excited to see as many family and friends as I can over the long weekend in WI!

The Cake Fairy

Today was a pretty standard weekend here in PA. I dont do much but hope that its nice out so I can go for a walk and explore on my own, but the sun didnt come shining through my window this morning to wake me up. I slept in. After a few hours of lounging around watching youtube videos about history, I asked Cassie if she wanted to explore the town. We decided to take a visit to a local winery/brewery, Stone & Key Cellars, to do some tastings. They had quite the spread of things to taste and we were overwhelmed! Fruit wines and your typical whites and reds, cider and mede! I started out with some of the red fruit wines and Cassie with the white fruits. They were all a bit sweet for me so I moved right into the bold reds. We got four tastings each and shared our tastes but also, the bartender was super cool and gave us more tastings of whatever he wanted! He was talking to us about the local area and what breweries to check out next in our exploration of Pennsylvania. Going to ...

What Can YOU Do? Eight Simple Changes.

If you're like me, all of the news about our environmental problems has been a bit overwhelming over the last week. The Amazon burning has been very hard to wrap my head around and I've been wondering what I can do to help. I wanted to create an updated version of one of my favorite blogs "Life Hacks: The Easy Environmentalist" ( https://everydaymoad.blogspot.com/2014/12/life-hacks-easy-environmentalist.html ) to include some new things that Ive learned over the last 4 years! I don't want to be preachy, I just want to empower you to learn and make some simple switches that can have a HUGE impact. 1) Bamboo toothbrush I myself was VERY skeptical. Put wood in my mouth? Uh... But after recently making the switch, I'm very happy when I brush my teeth knowing that plastic won't end up in the ocean. It's such a small thing that most of us don't even think about but has a large impact. Here is my toothbrush that I liked:  https://givemethedirt.com/prod...

Quarantine Day: 6+?

This morning I woke up before the sun and taught some kiddos English. I had all my favorite students today which makes getting up early worth it. Then I had my morning computer time and went on a deep dive into this Facebook group called "House Plant Hobbyist". Its seriously the best group on FB ever. Lots of people post about plants, literally anything about plants and everyone in the group is so supportive and positive. I love it. It makes me happy. I probably spent about 45 minutes just looking at plants and posting suggestions and comments... Yoga time was next. I wanted to get out before the sun took up the backyard space. Theres a nice concrete patch thats perfect for my mat. It was in the shade for my whole practice! I did a long and slow flow and felt super calm and connected after. Not to mention all the great music that they play through that app (Down dog). Its a free membership until May for anyone interested! Ty and our roommate decided they needed to get s...
