Almond Milk and My New Favourite Lift

I was in Woolies yesterday (my only other stop was fuel!), and look what I found...

I was so excited I literally gasped out loud! The woman walking by did a triple take! I then proceeded to quickly grab 4 boxes off the shelf...I was that excited! I have been on the hunt for almond milk for ages....I looked on line but that was over $9 a litre not including delivery. Here it still is not cheap at $5.99 per litre; but hey, it's cheaper than yalumba! :-)

Other than that, today I tried full on DEAD LIFTS for the first time...and I LOVE THEM!!! Thank you so much SHELLEY! She had suggested them since I have been so desperate to lift heavy but was finding it difficult due to the healing of my pec and shoulder-these are perfect! I went really light today since it was my first day of trying them. And I did them off the ground...I can't wait to do them again! Well, that's what I'm saying now-I'll let you know how I feel when I wake up tomorrow morning...LOL!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

WOO HOO!!!

Gotta love deadlifts. How'd you pull up?

Kek said...

LMAO! Cheaper than Yalumba....

Glad you've still got your sense of humour. :o)

Good luck to you with your sobriety.

Raechelle said...

yeah Shelley! I am in love with them! But I'm an idiot....when you are asking about how I pulled up...are you asking how the shoulder and pec went-or something about the move itself...I grunted...LOL!

Well, Kek, if we lose our sense of humour, what do we have left? :-)

Thank you Mary! Thank you for stopping by.

FINDING FOCUS AFTER FORTY! LOVE it!

However, I'm "finding" --looking for-- (where'd it go?) focus after 75 --grin!

And how TRUE--without sense of humor, what we got?

Stay sober (or clean, or whatever) with the rest of us: NO MATTER WHAT!

I love Almond Milk...that bites that it's so hard for you to find it!! ;-(
And deadlifts are a thing I have learned to love- for what it's doing to my BOOTAY!! ;-)

Hey honey

Meant how'd u pull up with regards to tiredness and soreness? Although I'm not getting too sore these days I'm usually zapped of energy for a couple of days.

What is this almond milk? What do you use it for? Is it available here in the states?
