This past week I was in a bit of a funk. The weather was very cold, and my head ached. On top of that, my vertigo was an issue that kept me from my normal exercise regimine. All of that made me feel pretty grouchy on the whole. So, I didn't get as many miles in as I'd hoped, nor as much dissertation writing. I'm hoping this week will be exponentially better.
I'm detailing out the extensive meal plan once again this week. 4 smaller meals has seemed to be pleasant.

In the meantime, have you been checking out my book blogs I've been posting? Here's the latest installment: http://steph-questforthegreatamericannovel.blogspot.com/2015/02/grandma-gatewood-walk-ben-montgomery.html
I've neglected my book blog for a while, but am trying to post my challenge books to it this year.
I'm up the fifth challenge: a book your mother loved... I'll be blogging this week about the 4th book, one from my childhood.
On this blog, you have two exciting things to look forward to this week! First of all, Rob and I spent our Valentine's evening building a feral cat shelter, so I'll have a blog with info about that. And secondly, I just received a box of goodies that I won from Kristin of Will Travel for Vegan Food fame, some of which she's said I can share with you! So I'll do that later this week, too!
