Daily Check-in: Monday, November 8th

Hey, FB Fam!

How was your weekend? ..I hope it was as great as your ghost (guest host) Shabnam was. Thanks again, Shabnam for another Saturday and Sunday covered so wonderfully! :)

My weekend was kinda chilly, weatherly speaking. We also had to set our clocks back, so on the bright side, I did get an extra hour sleep. But that change really messes with me for about a week or so.

But what of today, Blenders? What are ready for? Hiit me! Or don't. Do the thing that works for you. I'll be going into week 2 of the mass challenge a little later on and it will be a lower body with Tasha. Yay! I am excited, I swear.

And what is going on in the kitchen? I'm in a stir fry kinda mood. I love the turkey and veggie stir fry recipe from FB and how easily it can be modified, so I think that will work.

Now before I go, today's Monday picture is brought to you buy a female velvet ant. It's the reddish orange and black thing seen on my ground pic. They are actually a type of wasp even though they look like a big fuzzy ant. Females have no wings and can sting, unlike the males who have wings and can't sting. Their other name is cow killer. I guess to emphasize how badly it hurts to get stung? I doubt they go out of their way to sting cows, or anyone really. Either way, I don't want to find out.

Anyway, to tie it all up, here's to Monday not being so stingy!
