Happy Friday friends! Short post today! I’m trying to get a workout in before we head out on our walk (see below.)
For those of you who may have noticed, I took a little break from social media this week. I am deeply saddened by the events surrounding George Floyd, his murder, the rioting, the looting, all on top of Arizona’s now skyrocketing virus case count, it’s a lot at once. I haven’t talked a ton about my direct feelings about any recent events, because I know overall I’m in a good situation, especially compared to some who have lost jobs, loved ones, or both. My heart and prayers are with you all during this difficult time in our lives.

Food
I shared a full day of eats in Thursday’s day in the life post. Some other favorites of the week were take and bake cookies from Pot Belly’s (one of Mr. Hungry’s FAVORITE restaurants.)
And we’ve we were rocking the sourdough homemade pizza game hard as we had zero food in the house before I went to Costco this week.
Fitness
I’ve been trying so hard to a workout in prior to KJ waking up, working out AFTER a 40-minute walk in 90-degree heat is not fun. I’ve been successful about 50% of the time so far, so hopefully, I can get that percentage up this week!

Flashbacks
You’re “saddened by the rioting and looting…”? So, the systemic violence of opression is okay? I don’t know if this is tone deaf or intentional. Do better. https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/medialse/2020/06/02/george-floyd-racism-white-privilege-and-the-media/
No systemic violence of oppression is NOT okay. There have been so many peaceful demonstrations that have made such a great impact as well that resulted in no one getting hurt, of course, the media doesn’t cover those which is BS. In Arizona specifically, there was a riot/looting at one of the malls that ended in people being gassed out of the mall and arrested. That makes me so sad that happened to them AND sad that there was ever a need for it in the first place. I’ve avoided saying so much because I was afraid I would say the wrong thing, especially in an online format where you can’t hear the inflection in my voice or see my face. That being said, I’ve learned that as a white female I will make mistakes and that’s part of growing and learning. We can help each other grow and learn in a safe way, or we can be harshly sent back to the corner for not using perfect words. My intentions are pure, my heart is heavy for the suffering, but my head is open for learning. Thank you for the resource, I actually already had it on my reading list from last week.
