I need to get back on track with blogging 😳 | (food) diary 2018/05/01
Hi guys, i didn’t manage to make daily updates, so here’s a recap of my last days for you.
I didn‘t get lost in the woods on our trip searching for fossils, but omg i walked my ass off that day! Look at that!
For me, this is crazy..you might know that i usually have problems walking long distances due to the ms - but i didn‘t want to give in and although my legs hurt so bad and the group i was with was so damn fast in my opinion🙈 i somehow made it!! 💪💪 The landscape where we searched the fossils was all mountainous, too btw - worst case scenario for my poor leggies! 😵
The landscape was very pretty though.
Sunshine and rain at the same time on the highway
It somehow looked like Hobbiton, awww
This is the group i went with, on the right you can see Mr. Nini‘s backside 😄
Searching the fossils was so much fun, too. In the Devonian geological period, the area where i live was located south the equator at that time and covered by an ocean, the „Eifel narrows“, full of coral reefs with shells, brachiopods, crinoids, ammonites etc. (no dinosaurs, they appeared hundred millions(!) of years later 😄) It‘s so fascinating to find those fossils from the ocean and to hold them in your hands. I have a few pictures for you, all of what you see now is about 400 million years old!! 😱 Dinosaurs lived 235-66 million years ago..it‘s so crazy trying to grasp this time span!
This are fossilized corals with crinoid stems
Here we have shell fossils, omg isn‘t it cool that shells are already existing on earth like forever?!
And this are pieces of spongy corals, i already forgot the correct name 🙈
Not very interesting - i spend this day in the office. For my body it was a good idea, i was so damn exhausted from Sunday and felt all sore and was happy to be able to recover. In the evening we drove to the lake to stay there because 1st of May is a holiday here (International Workers‘ day 😄) The weather was kind of bad, very windy in the evening..but a night the wind turned into a severe storm and honestly i was a bit afraid in our trailer and didn‘t sleep well. We‘re pretty close to the forest with very big trees and i was scared one might drop onto us 🙈 or that the wind destoys the roof. Luckily none of that happened!
I stayed in bed for about 11 hours and got up very late. After that i started gardening with pulling weeds and cutting the hedges. When i finished i continued with painting wood panels i need for attaching an awning. So this was another day being quite active.
I ate 500 calories over my budget today and craved food constantly. I guess it‘s because my period is just around the corner, damn you, hormones!!! 😝
• two toast buns with avocado and vegan slices
• chocolate spread straight from the jar
• an instant mushroom soup with toasted bread
• a slice of graham bread with vegan cheese
• (way too many) salted peanuts
I ate 2140 calories and burned off 800 calories with working outside.
