Good job. I'm not usually a fan of painting natural wood or stone/brick, but I have to admit, it looks nicer with the white. Cleaner.

Thanks Songbird! I don't usually paint over oak either but we were so tired of all the oak in the living room, it was either paint it or tear it out. I would have replaced with marble or something like that but that was more expensive.

Yeah, I guess it depends on what you are going for. I've seen Ranch homes with a lot of oak paneling on walls, and a nice big stone fireplace, and knotted wood flooring...that really rustic, natural style works well for a ranch style decorated with sheep fleece rugs, antelope antlers, etc. But it would look a little...out of place in, say, a NYC apartment. What you have looks clean and a bit more elegant without being pretentious. Nice.
Good morning. Long story short due to some stress in my life my doctor wants me to cut out heavy workouts. No HIIT or kickboxing and such
for a while I'm still allowed slower Leslie Sansone walks, outdoor walks, swimming (but not laps) and yoga
Note to self when you run into your doctor and he says are you ok you look a bit tired don't answer the question
BTW I have a great doctor who took the time not just to give the standard I'm sorry to hear that but called me last night for a phone consultation I'm back doing 30 days of yoga

Well, that's not ideal, but doc's orders, I guess. Hopefully you'll be back on track soon. Did he give you any indication of when you can get back to your "regularly scheduled programming"? But I thought they always recommended working out as a stress release? Why would stress mean you have to work out LESS? Or is it more the KIND of workout? Hang in there...you'll get back to it, but you so need to take care of yourself!Good morning. Long story short due to some stress in my life my doctor wants me to cut out heavy workouts.

It's strictly the types of exercise I'm supposed to avoid
The good new is I have to do yoga everyday for a month

Interesting.
Well, maybe chill out a bit on the higher intensity exercises, and enjoy the more relaxing workouts.

Good afternoon. After some errands and doing bills, I am just chilling out reading emails and such. Today is my down day so I did laundry early this morning and now done for the day. Tonight DH and I will do our walking. I have yoga to do this afternoon. Dinner is a new egg and fried rice with veggies recipe I found. Have a good evening!
Easy high fiber, high protein "granola" Take 2 cups whole flax seeds and soak in 1 cup of water with spices of your choice(I like cinnamon and nutmeg) overnight. Spread on baking sheet and bake at 250 for 30 minutes flip and bake for another 30 minutes or until it can be broken into bits. Let cool and add dried fruit of your choice this is optional but

Well, it is not granola, but I had a tasty breakfast this morning, an overstuffed omelet with grilled chicken, onions, peppers and cheese. Added a biscuit and some tomatoes just because. Every now and then you have to have a treat. Healthier eating tomorrow.

Good morning! Didn't get a picture of my breakfast but it was whole grain oatmeal with blueberries and blackberries plus a spoonful of nut butter.
@epcotisbest Is that a homemade biscuit?

No, just a frozen biscuit plopped in the oven. Still tasty and much better than a canned biscuit.

Oh yeah! Grands are really good! Tastes like homemade! I hate canned. We had them growing up when Mom didn't want to make them.

The secret ingredient to biscuits in the south is love, lots of love, and that takes time.
Frozen biscuits - open bag, take out biscuits and plop them in the pan and stick in oven...five seconds at most.
