I'm back!  I recently retired from teaching and I must say I am loving it!  I have to budget my time so that I do something worthwhile as it is amazing how fast the days go by.  I have a schedule I try to follow each day.  I have also decided to devote time each day to my blog and Pinterest as well.  While reading my many magazines, I came across an interesting idea.  It is called Meatless Monday.  Since I am vegetarian wannabe, I thought this would be a good place to start.  That got me thinking about the other days of the week and how I could make each day have a focus.  Following Meatless Monday where I can't eat any meat (obviously) is Tuesday.  What can I do to make Tuesday special?  I have 3 dogs, one of which is overweight.  I usually try to walk each day though I must say I have gotten lazy as the weather has gotten colder.  Anyway I decided to make Tuesday Two walk Tuesday.  I will walk myself and also walk my dog or dogs at another time each Tuesday.  Ok, now for Wednesday.  I never drink enough water since I am a Dr. Pepper addict, so I deemed Wednesday to be Water Wednesday.  It is my goal to drink at least 2 bottles of water on this day each week.  Thursday was easy.  Thankful Thursday just makes sense.  It should be easy to think of one thing each week that I am thankful for and write it down.  Another one of my issues is complete lack of fiber.  Fiber Friday means that I must eat a minimum of 25 grams of fiber on this day.  Sounds easy but trust me, it is not.  As I have already said, Dr. Pepper is my downfall.  That is why Saturday is Single Soda Saturday.  I have to say this is really hard for me and I have yet to meet this goal on the past two Saturdays.  But that is what it is, a goal.  Sunday is the only day I actually cook.  So for now, it is Souper Sunday.  I will make soup for dinner each week.  I hope my family is on board with this.  Winter is coming on and everybody loves soup, right?  So far, I have made potato soup and taco soup.  This will be an easy one to do.  I love trying new recipes.
I would love to hear if anyone else has ideas of how to give each day a special focus as these may wear thin after awhile.
