Busy weekend for us. The weekends go by so fast! Friday I spent the morning at Children's Hospital with ds and the afternoon doing the garden. By the evening I was so tired that I just read/watch tv while DH and ds went to the opening game of baseball.
Saturday was tons more yardwork. I got the whole garden in! I planted beets, carrots, peas, lettuce, and onion. Just waiting for the tomato and cucumber plants that I ordered from a fundraiser. We took up the whole patio and relevelled it. Replaced the shed door as a baseball had gone though it
. Got the camper ready to go the cottage next weekend. Then came in and cleaned out dd's closet and took stuff to charity.
Then it was off to piano lessons. Saturday night we went to a dinner theatre production of Grease for my niece's 11th birthday. Then afterwards my sister was having the birthday girl, and my dd and 2 friends spend the night at the hotel where the dinner theatre is located. They got the suite done up as the Titanic
The hotel also has waterslides. I was going to stay overnight and help my sister but she seem to have the 4 girls under control so came home at 11 pm. Had a hard time sleeping because of my sunburn from gardening.
Got up early this morning and took my ds to do a 5k race with his grandma. I should have run with them but I hadn't signed up because I thought I would stay at the birthday party. DS finished 3.1 miles/5 km in 25:11 and his grandma (my mom) finished one minute later. I'm glad I didn't run with them because they're fast.
We're waiting for the race results but I'm thinking that they both came in first in their age categories. DS in the under 14 and my mom in the 65-69 category.
I'm very proud of them both.
After lunch ds and I decided to go for a 1.5 hour bike ride and now I"m recovering. DH is going on a business trip this week so I'm a single parent for a few days.
Exercise wise, I confess that I have not done a structured workout in a week!! First my foot was sore and then the last 3 days I've been cycling, gardening etc. I had a few days left in the March rotation but workouts that I'm not super crazy about so don't know if I'll finish it off. I'm thinking of starting up with Insanity again as I never finished that rotation. I'll start something tomorrow.
Rachael So will you be finished this job sometime this week?? You've done great sticking to your workouts even when busy with work! No further problems with the toilet? I would definitely consider a trip to Disney/Cathe trip. I've always wanted to go on a Cathe roadtrip but couldn't justify spending that much money on a solo trip but if I could combine it with a family trip that would be great. We had planned to go back to Orlando sometime to see the new Harry Potter at Universal Studios. We don't usually go in the summer as it's really busy at the theme parks and hot! But we would change the time of year if I could meet cathe at the same time. The plan was to do a hot vacation to the Caribbean this winter and don't know if we can do both. (we were going to the Caribbean in winter of 2010-11 and back to Florida in 2011-12 ) We only can afford one famliy trip a year and usually go in the winter to get away from the cold and then go to the cottage/camp in the summer. I will be watching for more info. and decide once I know more.
Jo Sounds like you're having a nice weekend with a dinner out and shopping! Good for you for getting up early and going to the spinclass. The race that ds and mom did was put on by the gym that my mom goes to. She's a real gym rat. She retired so she could spend more time at the gym
It sounds alot like the gym where you go and I know she would love it if I signed up and went with her. It's very close to my house (10 minute drive) I just love the convenience of working out at home while the kids are young.
