Happy Monday Gang! Have you ever been too tired to sleep? That was me last night. Very busy weekend and my class on Sunday was a huge hit, but I came home dead on my feet and then proceeded to toss and turn all night. I think I am going to take today completely OFF. I see lots of napping and reading in my future today :)

QOTD: What did you do yesterday for the Super Bowl? Nothing here. We watched about 20 minutes of it but neither of us cared and I went up to bed at 8pm because I was so tired.

Accountability: I was pretty on track all weekend. I did have a 1/2 bag of microwave popcorn on Saturday night, but otherwise all good.

B: just coffee

S: almonds

L: street tacos

D: chicken

Good morning and happy monday! No, I have never been too tired to sleep but it doesn't sound fun.

QOTD - nothing, football is not my thing.

Busy day today at work, plus a rescheduled pedicure and my book club. We only had two weeks to read this book because of some travel schedule issues and it wasn't super appealing to me and as busy as it's been I didn't even start it so it will be a good bookclub discussion, lol. I will look at the online synopsis sometime today; I did buy the book so I will read it at some point, I am sure.

I have finished watching all the best picture nominees for this year's oscars that I will watch - here are one sentence reviews in case you are looking for something to watch.

Banshees of Inisherin - I really liked this and would recommend. Colin Farrel should win the best actor for it, I think.

Everything, Everywhere, all at once - exceptional. Will be the winner for just about everything, including best picture, best actress, best supporting actor (go Short Round/Data).

The Fablemans - very enjoyable, unlike many Oscar BP nominees, does not leave you sad

Women Talking - very good, very heavy, great performances but it just left me very depressed for how some women have to live. Also when something makes you grateful that you can read and write your own name, it's very sad.

Elvis - very good, in spite of a horrible Tom Hanks performance

Triangle of Sadness - not sad but stupid and long

All Quiet on the Western Front - very long, very violent, not for me

Tar - Cate Blanchett is wonderful but the movie was slow and never ending

The two other nominees that I have no interest in seeing are Avatar and Top Gun sequel.

Menu today

coffee plus half and half X 3

Cold Brew skyr

turkey, cheese and pickle on a slider bun

chicken strips

Exercise today will be rowing and a quick pilates cardio session; I'm looking forward to both!

Have a wonderful Monday!

Everything Everywhere was fantastic. Love The Fabelmans. Triangle of Sadness was a waste of time. All Quiet was like every other World War One movie -- horrific and depressing. Which was the purpose of the book, after all. I probably won't see Elvis. We are saving Banshees, and really looking forward to it.

There was a blurb in the news yesterday that a pub in Ireland has un-banned Colin Farrel after they tossed him out for bad behavior 25 years ago. I have so many questions.

The first movie I saw him in was called Tigerland and he was amazing....and then he kind of went off the rails for a while but so happy that he's gotten it together and is making good movies again.
