Good morning!!
DH and I had a nice time yesterday. He got home at around 2 PM and took a short nap before we headed out for a 3 mile walk on the bike trail. It was a perfect day for it--cool but sunny--and we enjoyed it, although we are poky and we could never keep pace with Dana or Augie.
After our walk we changed clothes and went out to dinner. That was nice, too. I mean, my gosh -- DH had been in Germany for nearly 2 weeks and I've barely seen him since he got back! ;(
So, the 3 mile walk was my workout yesterday, and I haven't decided what I'm going to do today -- probably a CC on my elliptical.
JENNIFER -- I'm so glad your foot is feeling better, and what a relief that that nothing is broken! Still, you better take it easy for a week or 2. None of that crazy cardio, young lady! Please don't talk to me about housework -- UGH! I need to do some SERIOUS spring cleaning and decluttering.
ROBIN -- I miss you, too, I really do. I'm so excited that you're able to meet up with the Road Trippers! That is so cool! I'll want to hear ALL about it, and all about Jai's restaurant, too. I don't think I'm interested in the RT so much as I'd love to just check out Cathe's gym and meet her. I've decided that I'm definitely a small group person and would be totally overwhelmed by an event like the RT
. I think I'm getting crotchety in my old age
Yes, I NEED that vacation, but calling DH's secretary has never helped matters. We talked at length last night about how he needs to examine his lifestyle and make serious changes. We also talked, again, about getting away. We might be able to take off for a weekend some time in the next month. I just hope we don't end up at the MMGHH
;( . Well actually, if we go there in May or early June, it might not be so bad.
I see you're doing the 4DS. I want to get back to that. I really love it, but right now I need to do some endurance stuff. I hope to do a 4DS rotation before STS ships.
{{{{{DANA}}}}} -- I just wanted to give you a big hug. I think you're a real treasure and it upsets me that you can't have a minute to yourself. You need it from time to time -- we all do! Please sit down with your DH and explain to him that he needs to WATCH the kids -- to play and interact with them. Watching them does not mean occasionally looking out of the corner of his eye while he's working on his car or whatever. And does he understand that his neglect is placing his own DS's in jeopardy? Surely he can take a break for an hour a day so YOU can enjoy the same luxury that you give him. Rant over {{{{{ :* :* :* }}}}}
JEN -- I'm so sorry for all the trouble you're having with your sinuses. I agree with Robin that you should try a netti pot. I've never used one, but people swear by them. It won't cure an infection, but it might help by flushing allergens out of your system. Anyway, I hope you're feeling better today.
CUZ -- Your vacation plans sound great. I love taking little day trips to fun places. We have some lovely parks around here and we love to picnic and hike the trails when the weather is nice.
AUGIE -- I can't wait for you to get home so you can come out and play.
Okey dokey, I better hop to it. I'll BBL to post that salad recipe. I'm making salad for dinner tonight
