Friday Get to Know Me
Since it is a new year, I thought I would start a series so you can get to know me better. I call it my Friday Get to Know Me Series. Each Friday, I will either chat with you about things that I love, silly things that happen this week or things that really tick me off. You never know what each Friday will bring. This week I have a few things I would love to share with you. So here they are the first in my get to know me series.
My Latest Project
I am currently working on a 31 day series on Chats from the Blog Cabin that highlights not only women but also some of the issues they face. Some of these episodes will appear live on Facebook and Youtube and some will be exclusively for the Podcast. I am also bringing back my women in business series so look for some new faces to pop up on the blog.
I am also in the process of redecorating my living room, now that my new couch has finally gotten here.
What I am Currently Reading
I just finished Unraveled by the mother and son writing team of Laura and Tom Boldt. It is a story of addiction and redemption. I will admit that this book was sent to me in preparation for a live chat with them. But I will honestly say that this book was extremely well written and shows that sometimes you can come from even the most loving home and you can still fall prey to addiction.
The Last Meal I Cooked
I hate to say this but I have fallen back into the old routine of take out and that has added to me gaining 10 lbs of the 30 lbs I had lost back. But the last thing I cooked was some yummy BBQ Spareribs from Bravo Steaks paired with butternut squash noodles. I need to get back to meal planning because when I have a plan, I stay on track. It also helps that I have been drinking a lot more water because of the ketones I add to them.
My Favorite Quote
I have several but I think my favorite quote is “Don’t Just Survive, Thrive.” It sums up what happened to me in 2020, instead of being sad that I couldn’t go to events and meet new and interesting people, I found another way to do it- in the form of Chats from the Blog Cabin. So when I saw this sign on Jane I knew I had to have it for the Blog Cabin.
My Favorite Workout
This one is easy even though I haven’t done it in a while. The holidays totally got me off track. But my favorite workout is walking. Sometimes it is outside (which is my favorite ) or sometimes it is on the treadmill. Have I told you how much I hate the treadmill? But I know I need to get to walking because I feel so much better when I do. So I am going to ask you to keep me accountable on this.
What I am Binge Watching Right Now
Right now I am loving rewatching The West Wing on HBO Max. I loved that show when it was on the air and now I can’t get enough of it. But sometimes that is to my detriment because I don’t get work done because I am caught up in the show. So now I make myself a promise, to watch 2 episodes a day so that not only will get my work done but it will also help make the show go by slower. I will let you know if it is working 😉
So tell me do you have a favorite quote or show? Have you read anything interesting lately? Let me know by commenting below.
