Closing in on the end of another
month here…how is this possible? I feel like I haven’t been very much fun this
month, so my “fun finds” might be limited. But I’ll share what I stumbled
across, and who knows? Maybe my limited finds will be fun for you too!
A
few weeks (months?) ago on some random post, I told you about a YouTube workout
channel that one of my Sunday School friends shared. I hadn’t tried it. I just
passed it along to you. Well, this month I tried it! It’s proving to be a good
fit for me, so I’ll share it again here at the start of this. The channel is
called Christ Glorified
Fitness, and the specific set of workouts I’m doing right now is called the
12
Week Transformation Challenge. She has other playlists too, and while she
does have a members-only section, I think she has a good choice in the freebie
section! Anyway! All of that is just the backstory to this first fun find.
Because
I won’t work out on Sunday, because I do boot camp one day a week, and because
I sometimes miss another day for one reason or another, I was having a really
hard time keeping track of the video number I needed to do next. Thanks to
Pinterest, I found this
habit tracker (it’s blank!) that I printed out and I write in the square
the number of the video I did that day – or I draw an X through the day if I
didn’t work out. This has been quite helpful in keeping me on track as I’ve
gotten to higher numbers in the video count! Since the tracker is blank, you
could also use it to keep track of something else!
Next…our green beans were plentiful this year, and while we ate many “in real time,” we had more than we could consume there for a while. I am not a canning person, so I looked up how to freeze green beans and found this very helpful post. I followed the directions and now we have several bags to use once the garden is done. (And I think our green beans are just about done.)
My
wedding ring is too loose to wear safely, and I refuse to NOT wear it, so for several
months, I wore a small silicone band above my ring to trap it on my finger. It
worked well, but I didn’t love the way the silicone band distracted from my
pretty ring! This month I stumbled on these
ring guards when I was at Walmart, so I bought them! It’s been a great (and
cheap!) solution for me. One thing to note, though, is if you have trouble
getting your ring over your knuckle (even if it’s loose at the base of your
finger) this might not work. My mom’s ring is also loose, so I took one of my
extra guards to her, but with it on, she couldn’t get the ring over her knuckle.
I
think I’m going to save the details of this one until Friday’s recipe post, but
one fun thing I did discover this month? REFRIGERATOR PICKLES!!! I’ve never
made them before, but I had a blast trying, and they actually taste delicious!
So that's what I found. How about you? anything fun this month?

Ring guards are cool! A friend had a little ball bearing added to her bands to keep them in place!
