Monday Check In

A little earlier than usual, but in the last week I've not been able to get on in the afternoon (just other things going on).

How's your day going? Did you get a workout in? Did you manage to use your Filter? Did you unwittingly brighten someone's day, and did someone brighten yours?

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

I waited a little longer than I'd anticipated to run, but got underway at about 11am. Cloud coverage kept the temps around 78-80o so even though my run was longer than Friday's, it wasn't as grueling. Maybe I was just up to it today. 4.66 miles, 47+ minutes, no walking though I was pretty sluggish going up Big Hill. I still want to get some abs work in (bad Mama made brownies this weekend!), but that can wait until later. Going to have leftover Lite smoked sausage for lunch with potato salad.

Day brightener was hearing from my hairstylist who I regard as a friend. I'd called her Thursday when her son went off to Kindergarten, and she returned my call today. It was a day brightener for both of us!

Hey there, today is Monday, right? With vacation my days are mixed up. Heading to Disneyland in about 30 minutes. Its been busy here and interesting. Weather has been hazy in the morning, beautifuly warm in the afternoon and cool at night. Who could ask for anything more. Did Universal Studios on Friday, and did the Hollywood/Beverly Hills thing yesterday. Disneyland today and the beach tomorrow. Hope you are all well and I can fill you in when I get back home on Wednesday. Taking the red eye home Tuesday night and we arrive home in NY around 5:30am.

I was hoping to check in and say I've done my run and my weights but so far just my run.But it was a good run.I had a week or so of lousy workouts/runs and I'm happy to be getting back on track with them.

I had my day made brighter by a phone call from a friend.We covered the usual topics; men ,kids, hair, work and life's mysteries.

I'll be using my filter when DH pulls in tonight.He cleaned his truck out several days ago and left the trash in a bag in the yard.I kept thinking he would get back to it and get rid of it.But after moving it once to mow and then seeing where he had even ran over it once I decided to move it.Sheesh it's bad enough that I have to clean up after him inside!Anyway I'm trying to let it go and not make a big deal out of it.I think I'll just mention it calmly tonight and tell him I'd like him to not do that in the future. He will reply with"You're right. I'm a horse's butt and I don't deserve you" and that will be that .LOL Obviously I need alittle more work on letting go and not making a big deal.

I had to run uptown and do a few errands.All the new school stuff was out. I really miss getting DS back to school stuff so I bought him a pen :)

Yummy, brownies! I make the No Pudge brand (using fat free yogurt) and ds loves them. He won't eat any other kind now. I don't have to worry about eating more than one brownie because my ds & his dad will eat the rest of the panful before I can blink an eye!

Today, I did a 30 min. powerwalk and did great on the WW points - kept them to 21 & I'm sure my powerwalking more than took care of the 1 point over. Kept the food to healthy choices only.

Day brightener: looked at my insurance policy & I did get the rental car option (that will help!) - will have to call the insurance company tomorrow to report my car was hit in a parking lot by someone who decided to hit & run. I'm sure the whole hood will have to be replaced.

Does he really say he's a horse's butt and he doesn't deserve you?

Oh yeah!!! *happy dancing* I got a workout in... and I liked it!

Eating has been bang on today, in fact, I haven't even felt like eating as much as I had planned. Just need to get dinner done with and it will be an awesome day!!!

It was a good day here because dd was released from the hospital this morning (even if it's only for a little while)!

Also, the treasurer from preschool was having kittens last week because no one had gone to fill out the bank forms, so I went and did that this morning. I'm sure it will make her happy that at least one of us did! LOL

Looking forward...to another good one tomorrow!
