Hi all!

april, those waffles sound good. I admire your meal planning. I have a friend who tried so hard to turn me on to meal planning and I've wanted to, but never been able to. My life is so irregular. Plus, DH's family sends food constantly (it's a Greek thing). How many times we've bought a bunch of groceries like a chicken and veggies, only to get a phonecall that his aunt has an entire week's worth of food packed up and waiting for him to pick up. I'm definitely not complaining (she's an outstanding cook), but it makes planning impossible. Sometimes she sends food and sometimes she doesn't. Since we don't want to be stuck with a fridge full of her food PLUS a chicken, or other ingredients, going bad from the grocery store, we usually just wing it.

Marla, your trip to Seattle sounds nice!! (even if cold)



Trying to start the week off right and keep up the momentum. Today is a national day, so I have both kids at home. It's not a good day to go out, as there are often demonstrations on this day (and they sometimes turn into riots & teargas, but that hasn't happened in awhile, but it's a very fluid, volatile thing, ya never know...police were already set-up around universities yesterday when I went to the gym). Got my abs & glutes done this morning. Legs (calves) are super sore, but muscle sore, not tendon sore, I presume from my first run back and from walking (barefoot around the apartment, to get my 10,000). May or may not hit gym. Still trying to decide what my new split will be. Can always just do shoulders at home.


Have a good one!

ran partway to gym, legs workout (it was good), walked back
so happy to be back at the gym
