I can barely muster the energy for 2 (let alone 5…or 10).
I haven’t decided it I want to watch these videos – they will either be inspirational or leaving me feeling mildly depressed by the fact I consider it a good day if I’m up and dressed by 7 AM (let alone having a crock pot meal ready by 5 am).

In reply to Rebecca. I highly recommend Cookie and Kate as well! Healthy and tasty! There are also variations for dairy free as well.

Ouch! Sorry to hear about your tooth issues and smashing your finger. I recently had an unexpected tooth issue. I was having pain in my teeth on the right side of my mouth and chalked it up to sinus pressure contributing to the pain. After a few days, I went to the dentist and discovered one of my top teeth had crack in the middle and had to be extracted. So, I will eventually need an implant.

I’m glad other aspects of your life fell into place and outshined your injuries.

@Elisabeth – she looks pretty efficient – some large breakfast, 10 packed lunches, then a crock pot dinner prepped. 5-6 a.m. filmed in time lapse. Makes my prepping five of anything (not at 5 a.m….) look easy.

5 a.m. to 6 a.m. batch-prepping…wow! This is, yet again, a time I really, really wish I was a morning person (then again this woman also has 10 children and I can often barely cope with 2…)

I did something similar to a finger recently and the pain was incredible. The bruise is so small too- it looks like nothing.

In reply to Mandy. Interesting! What podcast are you listening to?

Your system-wide response to smashing your finger can most likely be explained to a drop in blood pressure which can happen from the pain. Glad it’s nothing more than an ugly bruise now!

I finished Ann Patchett’s book of essays These Precious Days which I loved. I am doing your War and Peace chapter a day thing for 2022 and also listening to the bible in a year podcast so I figure God willing I will have finished two of the great books at the end of 2022!

The website Cookie and Kate (https://cookieandkate.com/) has a bunch of different muffin recipes that are both highly tasty and pretty nutritious, made with yogurt and whole wheat flour. Highly recommend.
