But, the good news is there are ways to get out of a workout slump. So here are some ways to stay motivated when you’re in a workout slump so you can reach your fitness goals.

Hello June and goodbye May!

May started off busy. My little sister came to visit and we hung out and went to a hip hop music festival together. After that, my father in law was in town for my husband’s graduation. So my May got off to a fun but busy start. Once I was done with people visiting I worked on some cosplay projects. I didn’t do much reading in May, but I did start a new anime series.

I was in need of a new set of coasters for my office after my mini pallet coasters started to fall apart. So searched the internet for something cool but after a half an hour of searching, I didn’t find anything worth buying. Then while I was digging through my craft supplies I found a pack of wood circles and decided to make a set of coasters. I went through a few ideas in my head before deciding on a set of PlayStation buttons. So I dug through my box of acrylic paint for the right colors, created a template for the shapes in photoshop, and started on work on my new coaster set. They were easy to make and pair well with the decor of my office.

So if you’re looking for a new coaster set or a gamer looking to add some flair to your game room, give this project a try.
