I missed last week's week in review so I'm doing a double post this week. I've been busy going to various eye doctors to figure out my eye situation. The good news is it appears I have esptropia and may have always had it but only noticed recently due to my eye muscles aging and getting weaker. The problem now is my Neurology Ophthalmologist and my regular eye doctor disagree on treatment so I'm going to another Ophthalmologist to get a third opinion which means more doctor appointments. Whew!
I've been working out hard, partly to complete January's City Cycle challenge of 4 rides every week for 4 weeks and to avoid thinking about my eye. In the past two weeks, I've gotten in 8 City Cycle rides, 5 boot camps and 2 Barre3 workouts. I'm at 66 rides for my 100 City Cycle ride goal and at 19 workouts for my 219 workouts in 2019 challenge.
Food
I've been focusing on eating more whole food and less junk. I may have let myself lean hard on sugar over the holidays and now is the time to let it go. Acme Food & Kitchen has been offering Whole30 boxes which I've been ordering for our meals. I'm not doing Whole30 per se but there is nothing wrong with decreasing our dairy and upping our veggies!
I've also been cooking like a mad woman from my Sprouted Kitchen Cooking Club membership. It's been awesome getting new recipes every Friday in my mailbox. I try to cook at least one a week and they have all been delicious!

The Girls
Maggie had her 5 year old well-check and the girls were insane. They decided to wear masks in the office and dance and basically act feral. Maggie is completely healthy and a hearty 5 year old. She is also exhausting. I registered her for Kindergarten and I'm a bit in shock about it. Excited but still in shock.
Both girls are taking twice a week swim lessons this month. We decided not to do skiing this year but I still wanted something to get their wiggles out on the weekend. They have been doing great and Scott gets to watch them swim which he rarely gets an opportunity to do.

Other Goings On
I finished my first #makenine project and quickly cast on for my second. I've been busy printing out the patterns and gathering supplies for my other #makenine projects. I'm very excited about all of my projects and all the knitting I have laying in front of me. I've also cast on for a second mini cable sweater from KnitPicks as I plan to make a few for Christmas Ornaments.

I'm also addicted like the rest of America to the show, Tidying Up and have started purging my house. I did my entire wardrobe last weekend and it felt so good! I've also cleared out the kitchen drawers, completely purged the bathroom and partially cleared out the kid's toys. I'm coming for the kid's wardrobe next as they have too many outgrown clothing and need a good re-set.
