What's up, guys? It's episode 290. Welcome back to the show. hi it's Jacqueline good morning welcome back to the show I just finished up a little yogurt bowl. Um, and I feel like I, I have so much almond butter. I scooped almond butter and it had like granola, uh, yogurt and almond butter and berries. And I feel like I have that, like, what am I saying? I, does it sound like it does, does it sound, does it sound like I have almond butter stuck in my teeth? Cause I kind of do whatever. Um, yeah, I'm just hanging out. I feel like my mom would want me to make this a quick, I've been saying this recently. I had to talk with my mom about my show.

She's like, Jacqueline, why don't you just do quick episodes, quick little check-ins. You don't need to sit there for an hour. Just say, Hey, do a little life update and get out. Cause as you know, I've committed to one year of podcasting. Um, so I do it seven days a week and it's some days it's a lot. And she's like, Jacqueline on those days, just do a quick episode. so I feel like my mom would want me to do that today because I cannot bend my legs and I'm in pain um I woke up this morning I if you listened to yesterday's episode I ran a half marathon out of the blue just for fun decided to wake up on a Sunday morning and run 13 miles so anyways I woke up and I planned for this I knew I was going to be sore but like I can't bend my

legs. It hurts. It hurts to sit down. Um, it hurts to like, like when I first woke up and sat and like put my legs on the ground after I sat up in bed, I was like, Oh my God, this is extreme. And it, here I am like still, I'm like fucking burping out this Greek yogurt bowl. Jesus Christ. Um, it took me a second. I like walked around my apartment before I took Jimmy outside and I had to like I had to like beat my legs out or whatever I had to like work I had to like stomp around a little bit to get them loosened up and yeah um I mean I'm expecting this whole this will last for like probably till Wednesday Thursday like a few days and then it'll go away and then I'll have some snatched looking my legs are gonna look so good

after this week. I feel like once the swelling and the soreness goes down, I don't know. Like running makes your legs look so good. And so I'm looking, I'm looking forward to that. Cause right now I feel like they're really, um, they're just like full of lactic acid and pain. Um, but let me think of an update to give you, I don't know. Um, life is good. I've been kind of quiet on here about my personal life. I don't know. Like I've been having a good time this year. I've been happy lately. I've been doing a lot of fun. Oh, Jim, Jim. Hey. He wants attention. Jimmy, you just got a piece of chicken for breakfast with your kibble. He's been a good boy. Um, he just wants little scratches, but yeah, so sorry. Life is good. Things are going well

with, um, Oh, did I tell you guys yet? I think I'll tell you tomorrow. I have an exciting work thing coming out tomorrow. So I think I'll podcast about it before I won't tell you today. I'll tell you tomorrow. Um, but yeah, work's going well. Life's going, family's doing great. Um, dog's doing great. I'm doing great. I feel like I'm mentally like 2020 seems like such a past time. And I don't, I just feel like, I just feel like a blossomed person who's like compared to how I was last year. You guys all know my life story about 2020. It's kind of, I don't want to keep bringing it up but I've really transformed and I feel so good and so motivated and so on top of things and like so normal I feel like my life is like I'm back to normal like things are back to normal now

and I mean it helps that like know where I go people are wearing masks so um yeah I think it's like that shell that 2020 shell has like come off and I feel like a little butterfly who's like woo, firing on all cylinders. Things are going super well in every aspect of my life. And I mean, I don't know. I'm just, I gotta keep this short and sweet. What else could I talk about? Oh, Prime Day, Amazon Prime Day. Should I tell you guys what I'm getting? Um, maybe I'll do that. I don't want to do that right now. Cause I haven't picked everything out. I feel like I have a I have a ton of stuff in my cart but I haven't actually like decided what to get yet so maybe after I decide I'll podcast about it I still have till tomorrow I think

so yeah tomorrow at midnight to purchase my but see the thing is about Prime Day is I feel like it's good for like the deals are good for Amazon brand stuff items but not just like everything else seems like it's slightly discounted it's not an extreme savings but they really get you like it's so fun i feel like a little kid in a candy store on the website there's so many entire like it's so the way they like display everything and how there's a little countdown time thing on it and i don't know like prime day deals that section of amazon is so and it just, I don't know, it makes me all excited, and I get, I just get trigger happy, and I press add to cart, add to cart, add to cart constantly, and then I, 54 items later, I'm like, and, and

$10,000 is a subtotal, I'm like, okay, gotta start making some decisions here, we gotta start kind of, do you guys do that? I just, well, I started making lists, but back in the day before I made Amazon lists I would throw stuff in my cart all like I would have hundreds of things in my cart and then I didn't understand that you could I don't even know save for later or add add to the add to a list and then move it to the cart Jesus I don't even know but shout out Amazon Prime Day. Um, I'm thinking about what, what do I really need? Um, probably just a bunch of, I'll probably buy toys for Jimmy and treats. I don't know. Okay. I'm going to cut this short and sweet. I know this is kind of like a blah episode, but, um,

it is what it is. You know what I mean? I'm sticking with my goal. I'm doing this every day, regardless of the length or what I talk about so whatever I'm am I not giving is that am I being lazy though was this lazy yeah I kind of was I can't sit bitch I hurt I just need to get going with my day and work and it's like okay well I should knock the I know it's going to be more of a struggle to do this tonight than it is first thing in the morning. So I just ate breakfast. I took Jimmy out. I got on the microphone and now I'm going to work and I have a meeting soon. And yeah, so sorry. I just go listen to, I don't know, other episodes.

What do want to accomplish this week and do it. Just set your mind to it and do it. Um, quit thinking about it and just do it. That's the biggest takeaway or the biggest lesson I've ever learned in life is get out of your head and just start and just, just do it. Stop thinking, just do it. Everything. It's all about, it's all about taking action. Thinking is not taking action. Thinking is

thinking okay do I have anything else to say I don't know maybe color code color code your planner this week change it up use some new colors highlight stuff sometimes that's what that's what makes me feel inspired and excited about what I have to do throughout the week it's like seeing my tasks in new colors or I usually just write with a pen like a blue pen and I don't make it fancy or cute but the the weeks I make it fancy and cute I get all excited so maybe yeah change it up or if you don't write in a planner maybe start writing in a planner write down a list if you know can't I don't I've I've never been the type of person I should mention this I've never been the type who can have a virtual planner or calendar like I have to write it

I also have a calendar like I have a google calendar but I have to like I like having a planner with it's physical and I can like I don't know it's one thing I'll probably never change anyways okay have a great day hit that subscribe button and I'll talk to you tomorrow okay bye
