Spring Snowstorm

The weather has been unseasonably cold and snowy in Dallas.  We typically get 1-2 ice days per winter, and usually in December or January.  Here we are in March and we are snowed in...again.  With actual snow, I might add, instead of sheets of ice and muddy slush that is typical of this region.  I’m so ready for spring!  Our average temps are easily in the 60s this time of year.  I want to get outside, soak up some vitamin D, and be active OUTDOORS!

I’ve started collecting weights and other exercise tools so that I can still get a good workout in my home when weather or time does not permit me to go to the gym or get outdoors.  I’ve found that when I don’t exercise, I crave the bad stuff more.  Staying active is important for curbing those cravings or bouts of moodiness.

My house is spotless.  I go around cleaning all of those nooks and crannies that normally get neglected on my cleaning days.  Not to mention, it’s a great workout to move around and clean all day.  I’ve also rearranged all of my living room furniture about 5 times.  I think I’ve finally settled on a position for everything.

I’ve decided to dump cable and cut the cord.  I watch too much TV as it is, and I don’t mind saving the $100 per month that I waste on rotting my brain. I've invested in a Roku to watch shows on apps.  So, still rotting my brain, but at a cheaper price.

I’ve been collecting books from my family and friends to add to my reading list.  I also found out that I can check out ebooks from my local library online.  Not sure if this is a common thing with all library systems, but check with your local library!  A reading habit can get expensive!  The most popular reads for free?  I’m sold!

So, to keep moving in the right direction with improving myself mind, body, and soul!

Here's a snowy pic from a Texas winter wonderland. Enjoy!
