Happy Sigh

I spent my weekend doing a few things that I have been meaning to do for a while, but haven't been able to motivate to do. I started off Friday night by leaving work and going straight to the gym. I did my jogging on the treadmill (which felt great) and then went and did my new ritual of spending more time in the hot tub/sauna/steam room/shower than I did actually working out. Nice.


I got home, and had a great dinner, and slept like champ.


Saturday, I began the HUGE task of organizing and cataloging 20 something years worth of yarn, knitting books, needles, craft tools, and fabric. It's somewhat insane how much stuff I have - but I was encouraged to find that I still like all of it - just need the time to use it! My friend Suzanne came over to help - so it was more like a fun day with a buddy rather than painful organizing.


Sunday - we finished the organizing (Suzanne slept over... grown up sleepover parties rock), and then I baked bread for the first time ever. The results?

Delicious. Recipe here for anyone who would like to try - it's really not that hard!

I did finally get my period on Friday. It was very light both Friday and Saturday, today I'm really crampy and a bit miserable. I was planning on going to the gym tonight, but instead, I'm going to allow myself to sit in front of the TV and knit for a bit. But - I'm glad my body is getting back to normal.
