Hello lovely peeps! I hope that your weekend is going well so far. I didn’t have a chance to check-in yesterday. I went shopping and actually found some nice wool sweaters at Old Navy. I only managed to walk out with two of them, but then came home and ordered up 3 more. I also went to Bath and Body Works. I haven’t been there in ages and so I stocked up on hand soap and some home fragrance stuff. Much to DH’s chagrin, the house smells like pumpkin now. Oh well, too bad for him
.
Yesterday and today I went on a 25 mile bike ride. It is so nice here I didn’t want to be stuck inside. I might go for a walk later today but I just might sit around the house and hopefully get inspired to clean.
My latest house project is the master bedroom. It’s so blah, white walls and an ugly brown comforter from grad school. I really want to paint the bedroom a light blue and have a chocolate brown, grey, or black comforter. So, I have been looking, but nothing is jumping out at me.
I made yummy Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal yesterday for breakfast. I really enjoyed it and posted it in the recipe forum.

Robin – I watched the PSU game yesterday and I was so nervous during the 1st half. They didn’t look that great, but thankfully the 2nd half was much better. I’m sorry that your niece’s visit is over. It’s always nice having family visit, but like we’ve also said. It’s kind of nice when your house gets back to normal.
Catherine – I hope that your visit with your in-laws is good. Do you generally get along with them? Your KB training session sounds great, especially the pizza
. Also, I think it’s great that your sister went with you. Is she into fitness too? Sometimes it’s hard to find people with the same interest.
Ellie – Glad to hear you enjoyed the concert and Happy 10th Anniversary. Your DH is awesome taking the kids for the day so you can relax. Also, good luck at Cathe’s class tomorrow. You are going to do fine. Tell us all about it.
Dani – Traveling really does a number on me too. It takes me awhile to get back into the groove. Do you have to travel a lot for work?
Laura – I don’t know if you will see this, but have a great vacation.
Heather – The water workout sounds fantastic. I would love to get back to running too. In 2006 I trained for a 10K and did that and then hurt my knee. I have been doing walk/jog workouts but not sustained running. To be honest, my knee doesn’t feel amazing after the walk/jog so I try not to push too hard into full fledged running. I think when I lose some weight; it might be a little easier for me.
JJ – I had French toast and sausage today. I hope you enjoyed yours yesterday as much as I enjoyed mine. My DH loves breakfast and breakfast food. We usually go out once a month and that was today. Hopefully no more junky breakfasts for me for another month.
