Hey Guys!
We’ve made it to yet another week and I’m hoping yours is off to a promising start. Last week I started tackling a big project that’s been giving me a lot of anxiety. I had been avoiding it which was making my anxiety worse. Funny how that works, huh? Fortunately, I had a good conversation with a mentor who helped nudge me in the right direction. The plan is to work on it little by little each day. So far, so good.
A knee injury sucks. Trust me, I know first hand. It was early Friday evening around mid-January of this year. I had just gotten home from work and was getting ready to settle in for the night. As I walked out of my closet and headed toward the bathroom, my right knee abruptly collided with the wall.
There was instant pain followed by a few choice expletives, but I brushed it off. I didn’t think it was a particularly hard hit so I elevated it for the rest of the night and carried on with business as usual the following day. After a couple weeks passed, however, I noticed a stiffness in my knee that hadn’t been there before. It was annoying, but I figured it was a delayed reaction to what happened and would go away soon enough. Fortunately it did, but then it also came back.
Hey Guys. I hope your week is off to a great start. Today I’ve got a recipe for you – a burger recipe since the unofficial start to summer (i.e. Memorial Day) is coming up soon. I made these curry black bean burgers a few weeks ago and brought a few other veggies to the party so the black beans wouldn’t get lonely (hello sweet potatoes, plantains, carrots, and bell peppers). The result was a hearty, flavorful, and fiber-ful burger that I thoroughly enjoyed and am sure you will too. Keep reading to see how I made it.
Hey Guys! A new week is here and it looks like it’s finally bringing spring temps along with it. This week also marks National Public Health Week. In honor of that I wanted to do a post on how I stay active throughout my work day while working a desk job.
