The weather was mediocre this morning so I did some time on the treadmill. I was originally going to do 30 mins, but I ended up doing two sessions. I’d pretty much decided that I was going to do two sessions, if I felt like it. I decided I really wanted to get back into a bit of a routine this week, so Monday seemed like a good day to start. I raised the calories back to where I was before the rest week as well. Oh yes, and I made some biscotti this morning.

I spent a while outside in the afternoon finishing up the rest of the pots. I think it turns out that there are 52 pots to plant (yikes). I also think I’ve given myself another project, which I’ll start this week. We’ve had kiwi vines up the side of the garage, which did not winter well. Two of the plants have never flowered and the others, well they’ve never really done much (little fruit, usually drops off anyway), so I’m going to take them out this week and use that bed for some tomatoes and peppers. Tomorrow is errand day, but I’m hoping to get most of them done before lunch so I can spend part of the afternoon outside (before my swim). It’s not nice enough to work outside after swimming (not yet at least), so it kind of limits the schedule.
