thebratqueenAfter owning my food processor for who knows how many years, I just noticed today that above the buttons to operate it it says "CAUTION: Read instructions before using."
I get how this is good advice in general, but I can't help but wonder if some literal minded soul actually reads the instruction manual each and every time before pushing the on button.
Things here are pretty much neutral. I'm trying to do my best and remind myself that I can't do everything. I'm putting a lot of knitting projects on my lap because those give me the satisfaction of feeling like I'm doing something without being as strenuous to my system as, say, cleaning out my storage closet.
In a happy bit of serendipity, my belly dance classes have been called off for this month. Not that I don't love them, and I can exercise if I'm feeling up to it, but given the month ahead I'm actually kind of relieved to have the option taken away from me. Keeps me from pushing myself to go if I shouldn't, or feeling guilty for not going if I don't. Hopefully once September rolls around things will be better.
I've recently become addicted to Project Runway. I heard about the ep with the dogs and figured it would make for cute, mindless TV watching while I knit. Not only was it that, but now I want to see the first two seasons too. You've no idea how tempted I am to get the DVDs.
Now to try to spend the rest of today being a good girl and finding a right balance of taking it easy and doing things I want to do.
