Hiya!!
I know, I know -- I've promised to share my travel adventures and I will, but not today -- LMAO! I'm finally over that %(&* headache and ready to start rockin and rollin here.
I didn't answer my phone for the first 2 days after I got home and now I can't get off of the $*)* thing. All of my relatives have called and emialed -- they want to relive our trip. Well okay, I do too. I had a long talk with my darlin DH about how I can't remember things anymore and he told me that I need to "encode" the details I want to remember by thinking about them, talking about them, associating the events with other things, etc. That's why I've been trying to put it all down in a word document. I don't EVER want to forget what my mom's house looked like, or the cobblestone streets, and all the wonderful people who treated us like royalty. I'll tell you all about it -- I promise -- but not today .
I was thrilled when I stepped on the scales today -- I'm down 4#'s from before our trip!!!!! I don't know how that could be possible after all the gelato, granitas, pasta, bread, and cheese I consumed. I ate like a PIG the entire time }( :9 It's probably because of all the walking we did. Italy is definitely the place to go if you want a good workout. There's nothing but steps and hills everywhere! I haven't done a workout since I've been home though, and I'm hoping to get in a CC today.
The only regret I have is that I didn't get to do any shopping. I wanted to bring back some gifts for a few people but I didn't have an opportunity to shop at all as we were constantly on the go. I think when I go back I'll have to maintain a slower pace.
I need to go back and read our thread to see what y'all were up to while I was gone. I managed to snag a last minute appointment for a pedicure this morning so I need to hustle. I don't normally get pedicures but I treated myself to one before I left and now, two weeks later, they need some serious attention. Besides, the little foot soak and massage is well worth it . My BFs DD is graduating from high school tomorrow and I'm going to the ceremony -- I want my tooties to look pretty in my wedge heel sandals. My DH isn't comng home tonight so I'll probably have time to post more later today. :* :* :*
