I have a definite case of the Fridays

mickiYesterday I walked 6 miles and didn't get a lot else accomplished because they dilated my eyes at the eye doctor and the dilation lasted much longer than normal--nearly 6 hours--during which time I was pretty non-functional. So much for my grading goals. (The good news, though, is the doctor said no signs whatsoever of diabetic retinopathy or other changes).
I did go shopping and found some mini whole-wheat bagels--only 17 carbs, yay!--so I am going to have a bagel sometime this weekend. This fills me with ridiculous joy, because bagels have been one of the hardest things to give up.
I also whipped up a delicious dinner with sauteed mushrooms, onions, garlic, and swiss chard that I ate on low-carb tortillas with lowfat provolone. My favorite cooking experiment of the week! I'm also going to try to make cashew cheese tonight, in part to experiment with my food processor and see if I can justify buying a mini-one. (I'm already kind of regretting the spiral slicer, though--I can't imagine really making THAT MUCH zucchini pasta, so I'm trying to be better about buying kitchen appliances.)
I was hoping that after yesterday, when I walked a lot and even napped, that I would be more productive today, but I really, really have not been. :-( I did drag myself out of bed to work out, but that seems to have eaten my willpower for the day; there are several work projects I should be doing right now instead of refreshing FB, LJ and DW a million times and making blog entries.
