Day 11 of 28 Day Refocus

Good morning!!! What a glorious view, right? Now that I have been able to spend my second summer here at the condo, I have grown to love it more than I ever thought possible. It’s ridiculous to imagine that I found this little oasis by using the “Draw” function on Zillow. This leap of faith has worked out pretty well so far and, truthfully, I don’t even begin to take full advantage of what my town offers. Maybe that’s part of it, as well…I can, safely and happily, keep to myself around here and never get bored of the landscape and I am so very grateful for that, especially now.

Codee likes a fair bit of distance, too.

From sea to sea… No, I’m just kidding, but we did take a quick trip out to Dutton Island after the beach. I wanted to wander the woods for a few minutes, but Codee was more interested in the high tide.

And… a little reminder that love can be found wherever you want to see it.

In The Gardens:

Speaking of visitors and keeping company…You never know who might come by for a visit to the Pea Rack, which is really just an old closet shelf that a neighbor threw out, but the peas that I grew really liked climbing it…Anyway, it doubles as a place to hang my bag and meet spectacular folks like this creature…

I didn’t edit anything about these pictures or change any of the phone’s camera settings before I took them and they were taken moments apart. Yet, it’s remarkable to me how they can seem like they were very different environments.

Sweating It Out:

What I Watched:

On The Plates:

It was a day full of veggies. For supper, I had roasted chicken, chickpea spirals, broccoli and extra virgin olive oil. So simple. So yummy. I find that the key really is seasoning my food properly, but I am a veggie lover all the way. The chicken adds even more fantastically filling protein and tasty fat. The only thing that I actually cooked today was the broccoli and the pasta. Everything else that I had today was what most people would call, leftovers. I didn’t photograph dinner because it was just thrown together…not that this wasn’t, but I digress. I had some leftover steak, beets, asparagus, and tiny carrots from the garden, but it was not really a meal so much as food that I like in a bowl. I didn’t even heat it up…
I ended the day with a natural sugar laden, tart and sweet, blended frozen pineapple and banana jar. I really don’t love the term “nice cream”, but I can’t decide what to call it….I sure do love them, though.

Cronometer:

I finished entering the last few things and I realized that I haven’t had this many calories in one day in almost two weeks. I’m totally a volume eater…as most of you know, but this can quickly morph into binge eating depending on mindset and how you want to define things… Anyway, it’s a pretty gray line, but today was not a binge. It was just so much delicious food! Three solid meals, including two meat based which is VERY unusual for me.

Stay safe and moving, y’all!
